Master Qian's Extraordinary Merit Powder
Jeonssiigong-san
한글 전씨이공산 · Pinyin Qian Shi Yi Gong San
The Gangmok's rule accompanies the formula: where the Spleen-Stomach is weak and food hard to bear, cutting-and-felling drugs must not be used across the board — supplement with this, and eating naturally returns; should overeating on the mended appetite bring glomus, borrow Jisildoche-hwan briefly, and do not take it long.

Donguibogam 東醫寶鑑
脾胃弱而飮食難任者, 不可一槪用剋伐之藥, 宜錢氏異功散補之, 自然能食. 設或嗜食大過, 傷脾痞滿者, 權用枳實丸卽枳實導滯丸, 勿多服. ○治脾胃虛弱, 飮食不進, 未能消化, 心胸痞悶. 人參ㆍ白朮ㆍ白茯苓ㆍ橘皮ㆍ木香ㆍ甘草 各一錢. 右剉, 作一貼, 入薑三棗二, 水煎服. 《綱目》
Translation
Where the Spleen and Stomach are weak and food is hard to bear, cutting-and-felling drugs must not be used indiscriminately: supplement with Master Qian's Extraordinary Merit Powder, and one becomes able to eat naturally. Should craving then run to great excess and damage the spleen with glomus fullness, borrow the Jisil pill — that is, Jisildoche-hwan — expediently, and do not take much of it. — Treats Spleen-Stomach vacuity weakness with food refused, not yet able to disperse, and glomus oppression of chest and heart region. Ginseng, white atractylodes, white poria, tangerine peel, aucklandia, and licorice, 1 don each. Cut the above, make one packet, add 3 slices of ginger and 2 jujubes, decoct in water and take. — Gangmok 綱目 (Donguibogam · Naesang)
