Even when made of cooling substances, because of heat through contact with fire, it is contrary to pitta and blood.

It is of three kinds:

pacifying, nourishing, and purifying;

likewise, cough-destroying, emetic, and wound-fumigating.

Among these, pacifying, habitual, and moderate are synonyms;

nourishing, unctuous, and mild [are synonyms];

and purifying, purgative, and sharp [are synonyms].

Considering the body, vitality, and other factors, depleting therapy should be performed.
