6.6.44

&madhvāsavo 'ayaṃ kaphapittamehān kṣipraṃ nihanyāddvipalaprayogāt/
pāṇḍvāmayārśāṃsyaruciṃ grahaṇyā doṣaṃ kilāsaṃ vividhaṃ ca kuṣṭham//
&`lodhrāsavo 'ayaṃ' iti pā-. iti madhvāsavaḥ/
kvāthaḥ sa evāṣṭapalaṃ ca dantyā bhallātakānāṃ ca catuṣpalaṃ syāt/
sitopalā tvaṣṭapalā viśeṣaḥ kṣaudraṃ ca tāvat pṛthagāsavau tau//

This madhvāsava quickly destroys kapha-pitta urinary disorders when used in a two-pala dose, / as well as anemia, piles, anorexia, disorder of the duodenum, kilāsa, and various kinds of kuṣṭha. Thus ends madhvāsava.
With that same decoction, there should be eight palas of dantī and four palas of bhallātaka; / the distinction is eight palas of sugar candy, and as much honey: these two are separate āsavas.
