Translation

Treats food accumulation; it is a medicine of the spleen channel for dispersing and conducting. Hawthorn flesh and white atractylodes 2 nyang each; medicated leaven, pinellia and poria 1 nyang each; tangerine peel, forsythia and radish seed (stir-fried) 5 don each. Powder them, make pills with medicated leaven paste, and take as above. — Uihak Jeongjeon 正傳 (Donguibogam · Jeokchwi)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Bohwa-hwan with white atractylodes raised to stand level with hawthorn, which is the whole modification. The parent formula disperses; adding two nyang of a spleen supplement turns it into something that can be given over time. The source calls it a medicine of the spleen channel for dispersing and conducting, which names both halves. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
