从西天竺出产的没药，颜色呈黄白色。从南面波斯等国出产的没药，颜色呈紫红色。没药的树木类似松树，用斧头砍击树干，树脂便溢出到外部，凝结后形成香料，聚集而成块状。“薰陆”是这类香料的总称，“乳”是指薰陆香中像乳头一样透明、有滴孔的部分（指新产出尚未脱离沙石的）。其次等级的是“乳塌黄”。
没药气味微温，尝起来没有味道，性质纯阳且善于走窜，主要入手少阴心经，兼入足厥阴肝经和足太阴脾经。主治功效为活血、舒筋、定痛。治疗风水引起的腰膝疼痛及不死之症（注：原文此处文字错乱，结合语境推测为治疗顽固性疼痛或特定病症），需空腹时，用酒送服三十丸。用于难产催生，可用乳香与朱砂等分研成细末，加入少许麝香，用酒送服一钱，过一段时间后胎儿自然娩出。
〔论述〕 乳香属于南方番邦的树脂，禀受木气而兼具火的化育。其气味微温，但日华子认为它是辛热的，洁古老人甚至说它是纯阳之物，因此会导致大肠泄泻、阳气回归、血液生化异常，所以说它治疗肾脏疾病是由血转化的……（原文此处逻辑断裂，意指误用后果）。痈疽已经溃破者，不宜服用。各种疮疡脓液较多时，也不宜立即使用。（仲淳评）
〔辨治〕 紫红色的没药品质优良，但恐怕难以获得，应选取黄色明亮晶莹的。用箬叶盛装并烘干干燥，与灯草一同研磨。如果制作丸剂或散剂，需筛选极细的粉末。
没药产自波斯及海南，如今广州也有出产。其树木年代久远则树脂溢出，落地凝结成块，大小不一，颜色赤黑，其中明亮的品质较好。
没药味苦，气平。气薄味浓，属阴，主降。入足厥阴肝经，能通利滞血，消散瘀积。（若滞血不去，会导致气机壅滞瘀结）。女子……（原文残缺）。筋骨疼痛，清肌解热，煎汤送服夏枯草、忍冬藤等，治疗内伤，各半两，服用效果迅速。
〔论述〕 仲淳认为乳香禀受木火之气，没药禀受金水之气。观察可知，乳香取紫赤色，没药取赤黑色，赤对应火，黑对应水，则木……（原文残缺）之阳，以……阳……气……孕妇不宜服用。凡是疼痛因血虚引起，而非瘀血停留者，不宜使用。痈疽已经溃破者，不宜使用。目赤肤翳若非血热严重所致……（原文残缺）
〔修治〕 处理方法与乳香相同。
Myrrh from Western India (Tianzhu) is yellowish-white. Myrrh from Persia and other southern countries is purplish-red. The tree resembles a pine; when the trunk is hacked with an axe, resin oozes out externally, condenses to form aromatic substance, and gathers into lumps. "Xunlu" is the general name for this aromatic substance. "Ru" refers to the nipple-like, transparent portions of Xunlu that have drip holes (referring to fresh produce not yet separated from sand and stones). The next grade is "Luta Huang".
Myrrh has a slightly warm odor and tastes flavorless. Its nature is purely Yang and it excels at penetrating and moving. It enters the Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian and also the Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian and Foot Taiyin Spleen Meridian. Its main indications include invigorating blood, relaxing sinews, and relieving pain. It treats wind-water conditions causing lower back and knee pain, and intractable ailments. Taken on an empty stomach with wine, thirty pills are administered. For difficult labor to induce delivery, equal parts of Ru Xiang (Frankincense) and Zhu Sha (Cinnabar) are ground into powder, mixed with a small amount of She Xiang (Musk), taken with wine in a dose of one qian. After some time, delivery occurs naturally.
[Discussion] Ru Xiang (Frankincense) is a resin from southern barbarian lands, acquiring Wood Qi and combining with Fire transformation. Its odor is slightly warm, but Ri Hua Zi considered it acrid and hot, while Jie Gu claimed it was purely Yang, thereby causing Da Chang Xie (Large Intestine diarrhea), Gui Yang (returning Yang), affecting Blood Sheng Hua (blood generation), and thus it is said to treat Shen (Kidney) conditions derived from blood... (The original text here is fragmented, implying consequences of misuse). When carbuncles and sores have already ulcerated, it should not be taken. When various sores have much pus, it should not be used hastily. (Comment by Zhong Chun)
[Differentiation and Treatment] Those that are purplish-red are of good quality, but these may be hard to obtain. One should select those that are yellow, bright, and crystal clear. Store them in bamboo leaves and dry them over heat. Grind them together with Deng Cao (Juncus effusus). If making pills or powders, sift them to be very fine.
Mo Yao (Myrrh) comes from Persia and Hainan; it is now also produced in Guangzhou. The trees, after many years, overflow with resin which falls to the ground and congeals into lumps of unequal size. They are reddish-black in color, and those that are bright/lustrous are of good quality.
Mo Yao tastes bitter and has a neutral odor. Its Qi is thin but its Flavor is strong; it belongs to Yin and descends. It enters the Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian, unblocking stagnant blood and dispersing stasis accumulation. (If stagnant blood does not depart, Qi becomes congested and stasis forms). Women... [Text fragment]. Bone and tendon pain, clearing muscle heat and resolving fever, decocted as soup and taken with Xia Ku Cao (Prunella vulgaris) and Ren Dong Teng (Lonicera japonica stem), treating internal injuries. Each half liang, taken orally yields rapid results.
[Discussion] Zhong Chun stated that Ru Xiang inherits Wood and Fire, while Mo Yao inherits Metal and Water. Observing this, Ru Xiang takes purplish-red, Mo Yao takes reddish-black. Red corresponds to Fire, Black to Water, then Wood... [Text fragment] Yang, to... Yang... Qi... Pregnant women should not take it. Any pain caused by Blood deficiency rather than retained blood stasis should not use it. Carbuncles and sores that have already ulcerated should not use it. Red eyes and corneal opacity not due to severe Blood Heat... [Text fragment]
[Processing] The processing method is the same as Ru Xiang.
