Seeds of vatsaka, mustā, madana, madhuka, and honey
are stated to be the foremost emetic in downward bleeding disorder.
In the upward type, for one whose bowel is purified, the sequence beginning with refreshing drinks is wholesome;
in the downward type, gruel and the like, provided vāta is not strong.
