Clinical commentary 臨床
The most celebrated tonic pill in Korean medicine — amounts shown are for one pill batch, not a decoction packet. Sahyang (musk) is CITES-restricted; modern practice substitutes agarwood or costus, and quality hinges almost entirely on the grade of Nokyong. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
