Egg white (one), White honey (one large tablespoon, fresh is better), *Mirabilite* (Mangxiao, 芒硝 - use as appropriate).
Mix together, dilute with cold water, and ingest. If there is mental restlessness, add five *fen* of powdered Pearl (Zhenzhu, 珍珠).

**Vinegar Method for Treating Mania:** Treats both yin-manic and yang-manic states. (Note: Plague does not present as yin-manic.) Build a strong fire in the patient's room. Pour a large bowl of good vinegar onto the fire. The patient inhaling the vinegar vapor will calm down. For those with dryness and thirst, dissolve half a jin of niter in cold water. Soak a piece of blue cloth in the niter water, wring out slightly, and apply to the chest. Replace when hot. If the patient sleeps and sweats, they will recover. (Alternative method: Press a mirror against the body.) If accompanied by protruding tongue that cannot retract, wash the tongue with Ephedra (*Mahuang*, 麻黄) decoction. Apply powder of Borneol (*Bingpian*, 冰片), Calculus Bovis (*Niuhuang*, 牛黄), and Moschus (*Shexiang*, 麝香) to the tongue to retract it. (Using only Borneol is also acceptable.)
