6.3.169
&akṣīṇabalamāṃsāgneḥ śamayettaṃ virecanaiḥ/
jvarakṣīṇasya na hitaṃ vamanaṃ na virecanam//
&`akṣīṇabalamāṃsasya' iti pā-.
kāmaṃ tu payasā tasya nirūhairvā harenmalān/
nirūho balamagniṃ ca vijvaratvaṃ mudaṃ rucim//
he should pacify it with purgatives in one whose strength, flesh, and digestive fire are undiminished.
Neither emesis nor purgation is beneficial for one emaciated by fever.
However, one may readily eliminate his wastes with milk or non-unctuous enemas.
A non-unctuous enema, when employed once the humors are fully digested, brings about strength, digestive fire,
freedom from fever, joy, and appetite swiftly.
