Clinical commentary 臨床

A decoction where most of this section is powders and pills, and the choice matters: a screen already covering the pupil is treated hard and fast, with wine-fried rhubarb and gentian draining while the surface drugs work above. Pipewort flower appears here for the third time in the section and is the drug this group is really built on. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
