Treats consumption cough with hemoptysis, elderly patients with upward Qi rebellion unable to lie flat, or chest diaphragm Qi stagnation with abdominal distension, chronic persistent cough, as well as throat wind (throat wind), throat swelling, blurred vision and visual obstruction, bone-steaming consumption fever in both males and females, pediatric convulsions, prenatal and postpartum coma and loss of consciousness, all kinds of deficiency diseases. One can first moxa three hundred Zhuang below the navel, then take this medicine; its efficacy is miraculous. This is because consumptive disease involves Kidney Qi about to escape, failing to nourish the Lungs from above. This medicine is a formula that moistens the Lungs and generates fluids.

My father took this medicine for thirty years without ever suffering from such ailments, so I dare to append this note. When taking this medicine, one must avoid Ren Shen (Ginseng Root) and Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Rhizome).
