只有松烟墨可以入药。（烧制时收集松烟，用榆树皮汁化解胶结并调和制造，或者加入香料药物等物。）也须陈放一年后才为佳。
粗劣的墨多是用窑炉烟囱中的墨烟，反复浸入麻油，用火烧烤后制造而成。这种墨光泽虽黑，但不可使用。
（松烟）墨气味辛温。能止血生肌，促进金疮愈合，治疗产后血晕、崩漏、突然下血。（可用醋磨墨服用）又能治疗血痢，以及小儿客忤。（捣碎筛粉，温水送服）异物芒刺入眼，用墨点摩瞳孔处即可排出。松烟墨属金而含火性，入药能很好地辅助补益之性。（朱丹溪）吐血急欲止住时，用血余炭二钱，阿胶用白开水化开二钱，加入童便、生藕汁、刺蓟汁、生地黄汁各一杯，仍用好墨磨成浓黑汁，一次温服。按《准绳》前段所述，用醋制的大黄等味，入血分，引血下行，使逆乱转为顺行。此法极稳妥，且功效也未尝不迅速。有人以炒黑存性的生大黄为主，辅以炒黑的栀子、香附等味，奏效不差。此方用墨，如果不是确系松烟墨，很难保证不会因误用而获罪。
〔辨治〕 不问是徽墨还是京墨、油烟墨，只要光泽如漆且香的，都不要使用。用于汤药磨服或丸散，需火煅细研，或用水浸软，用纸包裹煨熟后锉碎。
石碱的形状像石头，类似碱，所以得名。产于山东济宁等地。制作方法：采集蒿、蓼之类植物，挖窖浸水，捞出，晒干烧成灰，用原水淋取汁液，每百斤加入粉面二三斤，久置则凝结沉淀如石，连同汁液运销四方，用来洗衣发面，获利甚厚。其他地方用灶灰淋取浓汁，也能去垢发面。（李时珍）
石碱味道辛苦，气温，微毒。能去除湿热，止心痛，消痰，磨除积块，消除食滞，洗涤污垢油腻。需根据虚实情况用量，过量服用会损伤人体。（朱丹溪）与锻石同用可烂肌肉，溃破痈疽瘰疬，去除瘀肉，点痣、疣赘、痔核，效果神奇。（李时珍）
石碱能消能降，能洗涤肠胃中的污垢油腻。（王肯堂）消积破气：石碱三钱，山楂三两，阿魏五钱，半夏皂荚水制过一两，研为末，用阿魏化开醋，煮糊为丸服用。一切眼疾：白碱拣去黑碎者，用七层浓纸包裹，挂在通风处四十九天，取出研极细，每日点眼。痣、疣赘：花碱矿灰，用小麦秆灰汁煎煮上述两味，令其干燥，等分为末，针刺破患处，用水调匀点涂，三日三次上药，即去除，必须新配制才有效。虫牙疼痛：将花碱填入蛀孔内，立止疼痛。
石碱具有阴湿之性，润下软坚，所以对肠胃不宜。食用使人泄泻，脾胃虚弱者忌服。（陈实功）
Only Pine Soot Ink (Songyan Mo) is suitable for medicinal use. (Collected from burning pine, dissolved with Ulmus macrocarpa Bark Decoction [Yupi Zhi] to break down glue and mixed, or with added aromatic herbs.) It is best if aged for one year.
Coarse inks are often made from soot collected from kiln flues, repeatedly soaked in Sesame Oil [Hama You], roasted over fire, and then processed. Although such ink appears black and glossy, it must not be used.
Pine Soot Ink has a pungent and warm nature. It stops bleeding, generates flesh, promotes healing of metallic wounds, treats postpartum blood dizziness, metrorrhagia, and sudden hemorrhage. (Grind with vinegar and take.) It also treats bloody dysentery and pediatric "Ke Wu" (sudden fright/illness caused by strangers). (Crush, sift into powder, and take with warm water.) If a thorn or foreign body enters the eye, applying ink to the pupil area will expel it. Pine Soot Ink belongs to Metal and contains Fire properties; when used medicinally, it strongly assists tonifying effects. (Zhu Danxi) For urgent hematemesis, use two qian of Human Hair Charcoal [Xueyu Hui], dissolve two qian of Donkey-hide Gelatin [Ejiao] in white boiled water, add one cup each of Child’s Urine [Tongbian], Fresh Lotus Root Juice [Sheng Ou Zhi], Spiny Dock Juice [Ciji Zhi], and Rehmannia Root Juice [Shengdi Zhi]. Grind high-quality ink into a thick black liquid, mix well, and take once while warm. According to *Zhunsheng*, using vinegar-processed Rhubarb [Dahuang] etc., which enter the Blood level, guides blood downward, transforming rebellion into compliance. This method is extremely stable and effective. Some practitioners use charred Rhubarb [Chao Huanglian] as the main ingredient, assisted by charred Gardenia [Zhizi] and Cyperus Rhizome [Xiangfu], achieving reliable results. The use of ink in this formula requires genuine Pine Soot Ink; otherwise, misuse may lead to adverse consequences.
[Identification and Treatment] Regardless of whether it is Huimo, Jingmo, or Oil Soot Ink, do not use those that are glossy like lacquer and fragrant. For decoctions, grind for oral administration; for pills and powders, roast finely, or soak in water until soft, wrap in paper, bake, and crush.
Stone Alkali [Shijian] resembles stone and is similar to alkali, hence its name. It originates from Jining and other places in Shandong Province. Its preparation method involves harvesting plants such as Artemisia and Polygonum, soaking them in pits, draining, drying, burning to ash, leaching with original water to extract juice, adding two to three jin of flour per hundred jin, allowing it to precipitate and solidify like stone over time, and shipping it with the juice to various regions. It is highly profitable for washing clothes and fermenting dough. Other places use ash from stoves to leach concentrated juice, which also removes grease and aids fermentation. (Li Shizhen)
Stone Alkali tastes pungent and bitter, has a warm temperature, and is slightly toxic. It clears damp-heat, relieves heart pain, resolves phlegm, breaks up masses, eliminates food stagnation, and washes away dirt and grease. Dosage should be adjusted according to deficiency or excess; excessive consumption damages the body. (Zhu Danxi) When combined with Calcined Alum [Duanshi], it can slough off muscle tissue, ulcerate carbuncles and scrofula, remove necrotic tissue, and treat moles, warts, and hemorrhoidal nodules with miraculous efficacy. (Li Shizhen)
It has dissolving and descending properties, capable of cleansing dirt and grease within the intestines and stomach. (Wang Kentang) Formula for breaking accumulations and moving Qi: Stone Alkali 3 qian, Hawthorn Fruit [Shanzha] 3 liang, Ferula Resin [Awei] 5 qian, Pinellia Tuber [Banxia] and Soap Pod [Zaojia] processed with water 1 liang. Grind into powder, dissolve Ferula in vinegar, cook into a paste to form pills. Formula for all eye diseases: Select white alkali, removing black fragments, wrap in seven layers of thick paper, hang in a ventilated place for forty-nine days, take out, grind extremely fine, and apply daily to the eyes. For moles and warts: Flower Alkali and mineral ash, boil these two ingredients in wheat straw ash juice until dry, divide equally into powder, prick the lesion with a needle, mix with water, and apply. Apply three times over three days, then remove. Must be freshly prepared to be effective. For toothache caused by worms: Fill the cavity with Flower Alkali to stop pain immediately.
Stone Alkali possesses Yin-damp nature, moistening, descending, and softening hardness. Therefore, it is unsuitable for the gastrointestinal tract. Ingestion causes diarrhea; those with weak spleen and stomach should avoid it. (Chen Shigong)
