Translation
Treats mind and strength both taxed and Qi and Blood both damaged — whether toil after the bedchamber, the bedchamber after toil, or vacuity taxation following a great illness — with Qi exhausted and spontaneous sweating. White peony 2.5 don; prepared rehmannia, astragalus, Korean angelica, and cnidium, 1 don each; cinnamon bark and licorice, 0.75 don each. Cut the above, make one packet, add 3 slices of ginger and 2 jujubes, decoct in water and take. — Also called Ssanghwa-san: it is Jianzhong Decoction and Four Substances joined into one formula, most effective for vacuity taxation with exhausted Qi after a great illness. — Various formularies 諸方 (Donguibogam · Heoro)
