Large Gentian and Turtle Shell Powder

Jingyobyeolgap-san

한글 진교별갑산  ·  Pinyin Qin Jiao Bie Jia San

秦芃鱉甲散

The source glosses cheonseondeung in a side-note: 'the vine of green aucklandia' (靑木香藤也). Note on modern practice: Aristolochia vine (天仙藤) contains aristolochic acid and is prohibited in contemporary U.S. practice due to nephrotoxicity; the formula is shown as recorded, and modern prescribing omits or substitutes it.

Translation

Treats vacuity taxation with tidal heat, night sweats, and the various phlegm-cough patterns. Kudzu root 1.5 don; schizonepeta, fritillaria, peucedanum, aristolochia vine (the vine of green aucklandia), green tangerine peel, bupleurum, large gentian, turtle shell, and licorice, 0.75 don each; angelica dahurica, notopterygium, and cinnamon bark, 0.35 don each. Cut the above, make one packet, add 3 slices of ginger, decoct in water and take. — Deukhyo 得效 (Donguibogam · Heoro)

Clinical commentary 臨床

A consumption formula that fights outward — kudzu and schizonepeta at the gates while gentian and turtle shell dig the steaming heat out of the bone, on the Deukhyo's wager that taxation fever is a siege best broken from both sides. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
