Translation

Treats phlegm-rheum with qi and blood depressed and bound, food accumulation with the qi neither ascending nor descending, and accumulation with distension and pain. White atractylodes 1.5 don; medicated leaven, cyperus, bitter orange fruit, corydalis and sea hare egg mass 1 don each; red poria, tangerine peel, green tangerine peel, amomum, barley sprout (stir-fried), hawthorn flesh and licorice 7 pun each. Cut up, make one packet, add 3 slices of ginger, decoct in water and take. Also called Gaeuljeongwon-san, which omits the bitter orange fruit and carries platycodon. — Uihak Immun 入門 (Donguibogam · Jeokchwi)

Clinical commentary 臨床

The name states the section's governing principle — disperse the accumulation and right the original qi — and the design follows it. Nothing here attacks: white atractylodes leads, the food-reducing trio sits in the middle, and corydalis and sea hare egg mass cover the blood and phlegm sides. Set against Jeungsonojeok-hwan, which titrates croton frost by stool response, this is the same section's mildest offering, and the two mark the range the chapter allows. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
