Translation

Treats red and white turbidity. Cuscuta (wine-processed), mantis egg-case (wine mix-fried) and toosendan flesh 5 don each; oyster shell (calcined) 3 don; dragon bone, cinnabar, acorus, white poria, alpinia, lotus seed and amomum 2 don 5 pun each. Powder them, bind with dioscorea paste into pills the size of a firmiana seed, and take fifty at midday with a decoction of ginseng and jujube kernel, and fifty at bedtime with rice water. — Dansim 丹心 (Donguibogam · Sobyeon)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Two doses with two different draughts — ginseng and jujube kernel at midday, rice water at night — which is the chapter's most careful piece of dosing. The pill holds and the draughts decide where it works. **Contains cinnabar, which is toxic.** — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
