Translation

Treats the various winds after delivery, with hypertonicity and cramping or with wilting and weakness. Chuanxiong, angelica, cooked rehmannia, white atractylodes and white poria 1 nyang each; white peony, large gentian, notopterygium and angelica dahurica 7 don each; saposhnikovia 5 don. Powder half finely and take 2 don stirred into warm wine; make the other half into honey pills the size of a firmiana seed and take fifty to seventy down with warm wine. — Dansim 丹心 (Donguibogam · Buin)

Clinical commentary 臨床

One preparation divided into two forms — half a powder for quick action, half a pill for continued use. The chapter does this only where a condition needs both relief and a long course. Palmul-tang's supplementing base with four wind-damp medicinals on top, and the supplementing half outweighs the dispersing half two to one. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
