Translation

Treats vacuity detriment with enuresis that cannot be held, or vacuity cold with much urine. Chicken gizzard lining (mix-fried) 7 don 5 pun; deer antler velvet (butter mix-fried), cistanche (wine-steeped) and angelica (wine-washed) 5 don each; dragon bone (calcined), oyster shell powder, morinda, halloysite, limonite (calcined), vinegar-fired lacquer (ground), white dried ginger, alpinia and frankincense 2 don 5 pun each. Powder them, bind with glutinous rice paste into pills the size of a firmiana seed, and take seventy on an empty stomach with salt decoction. — Jikji 直指 (Donguibogam · Sobyeon)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Four mineral astringents at once — dragon bone, oyster shell, halloysite and limonite — which is more holding than any other formula in the chapter, with gizzard lining at the head. For the case where warming alone has not held the urine. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
