Donguibogam 東醫寶鑑

治咽喉腫痛妨悶, 語聲不出. 桔梗 二兩, 甘草(灸) 一兩半, 枳殼ㆍ防風 各五錢. 右末三錢, 煎水入蜜如棗許, 攪服. 《綱目》

Translation

Treats the throat swollen, painful and obstructed with the voice not coming out. Platycodon 2 nyang; licorice (mix-fried) 1 nyang 5 don; bitter orange and saposhnikovia 5 don each. Take 3 don of the powder, decoct in water, stir in a jujube's worth of honey and drink. — Uihak Gangmok 綱目 (Donguibogam · Inhu)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Gamgil-tang with two additions and honey stirred in at the end. Honey in a throat decoction coats what the medicine passes over, and every hoarseness formula in 5.17 uses it or a lozenge base. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
