Treats five-colored spotting with sallow wasting and vacuity exhaustion. Sanguisorba 3 nyang, cut, boiled in one doe of vinegar through some ten boilings; take one hop hot on an empty stomach. — Immun 入門 (Donguibogam · Po)

Clinical commentary 臨床

One herb and a pot of vinegar — sanguisorba, the tradition's standing agent for blood leaving where it should not, boiled in the sour flavor that gathers. The indication is the grave one in this section: discharge of every color in a patient already sallow and wasting, where the chapter is describing not a local complaint but a person being drained. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
