bubble_chart Preparation and Dosage

Strychnine seeds are soaked in clean water for fifteen days. In summer, change the water every other day, and in winter, soak them in warm water, changing the water once. Remove the fur and skin, cut into 0.3 cm thick strips, and fry in sesame oil until the oil foam is gone. Then fry for a few more rolls until the inside is yellow and crispy. Place in yellow soil and stir-fry until the soil powder has an oily smell. Sift to remove the oily soil, then change the soil powder and stir-fry again. Repeat this process three times until the oil is completely removed. Take out and grind the strychnine seeds into a fine powder. Pangolin scales are fried in soil until crispy and then ground into a fine powder. Sichuan aconite is soaked in water for three days, changing the water daily, then dried and ground into a fine powder. Combine the above three ingredients and grind into a fine powder. Adults take 0.3-0.6 grams, taken with yellow wine one hour after meals. Dosage should be adjusted according to age, condition, and physical constitution, with reduced amounts for those who are weak.
