Antidotes for Qingfen (Calomel) poisoning. Lead subcarbonate refined a hundred times is non-toxic and suitable for medicinal use, but the dosage must not exceed one fen. Improper use damages muscles and bones; thus, it should not be used in large amounts. Raw lead is toxic and can be fatal; poisoning can be antidoted with Zhegu rou (Meat of Francolin).

When combined with Zhugen (Bletilla Rhizoma) and decocted with wine and water, it treats threatened abortion due to fetal restlessness.
In usage, only the decoction liquid should be taken to utilize its qi and the power of the raw material; do not ingest the dregs, as they may consume body fat.
