bubble_chart Preparation and Dosage

Grind each ingredient into a fine powder, measure accurately according to the specified proportions, and prepare the mixture at the hour of Chen on the Dragon Boat Festival. Wait until the hour of Wu, then add the above ingredients into the toad venom paste, 6.6 centimeters in quantity. Chew thoroughly with water and swallow. Immediately place the medicinal cake under the tongue, lie down in a warm place, and cover with a blanket. As the medicine dissolves into bitter liquid, swallow it slowly. For severe sores, 2-3 cakes may be used. Once the medicine is fully consumed, profuse sweating will occur, and all ailments will vanish. If sweating is difficult in the cold winter months, drink scallion white soup after holding the medicine in the mouth to assist. If the treatment for hidden boils is ineffective, or if the condition is neglected and worsens, causing the patient to become unconscious and unable to take the medicine as prescribed, boil seven scallion whites with their roots in an appropriate amount of wine, grind five medicinal cakes, and administer the mixture. When the medicinal energy reaches the heart, its effect will be as swift as melting snow, and the patient will immediately regain consciousness.
