Pierce a pill onto the tip of a needle, burn it over a lamp flame until carbonized but retaining its medicinal properties (charred), grind into a paste, and take with cool rice wash water.
Timing: For diarrhea, take before meals; for vomiting, take at any time. External application: Mix Lvdoufen (Mung Bean Powder) with egg white to make a paste, apply to both soles. If diarrhea is present, apply to the fontanelle; remove once symptoms cease.

Indicated for vomiting and diarrhea, or insufficient body fluids after illness presenting with dry mouth and thirst; harmonizes the stomach, generates fluids, stops dysentery and diarrhea, and prevents the onset of slow convulsive disease (Man Jing Feng).

Administration: Decoct in water and take orally. If children suffer from frequent dysentery and are on the verge of developing slow convulsions, add Shanyao (Dioscorea Rhizome), Bian Dou (Lablab Seed), and Roudoukou (Nutmeg), all roasted, one qian each, decocted with one slice of ginger. If slow convulsions have already manifested, add Xixin (Asarum Root), Tianma (Gastrodia Rhizome) each one qian, Quanxie (Scorpion) three units, and Baifuzi (Typhonii Rhizoma), eight fen, wrapped and roasted. In winter, if children vomit roundworms, this is mostly due to stomach cold and deficiency; add two Dingxiang (Caryophylli Flos).
