Translation

Treats drinking joined with bedroom taxation — the wine entering the hundred vessels and leaving the person abstracted and out of their ordinary self. Prepared rehmannia 2 don; ginseng, white peony, trichosanthes root, bitter orange husk, hostwood poria, sour jujube seed, and licorice, 1 don each. Cut the above, make one packet, decoct in water and take. — Deukhyo 得效 (Donguibogam · Naesang)

Clinical commentary 臨床

The chapter's entry for the double excess — wine riding the hundred vessels into a body the bedchamber has already emptied, until the person is 'abstracted and no longer themselves.' No dispersers here: rehmannia and ginseng refill what both indulgences drew down, and the hostwood pair walks the spirit home. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
