6.15.121

lavaṇāni palāṃśāni pañca caikatra cūrṇayet/
takre &tadāsutaṃ jātaṃ takrāriṣṭaṃ pibennaraḥ/
dīpanaṃ śothagulmārśaḥkrimimehodarāpaham//
iti takrāriṣṭaḥ/
svasthānagatamutkliṣṭamagninirvāpakaṃ bhiṣak/
pittaṃ jñātvā virekeṇa nirharedvamanena vā//

and the five salts, one pala each—should be powdered together. / Fermented in buttermilk, a man should drink this resulting takrāriṣṭa, / which stimulates digestion and removes swelling, phantom tumors, piles, worms, urinary disorders, and belly diseases.
Thus ends takrāriṣṭa.
Having recognized pitta to be situated in its own place, excited, and extinguishing the digestive fire, the physician / should expel it by purgation or by emesis.
