ससैन्धवम् वचादिं वा तद्वन्मदिरयाऽथवा। वर्चस्यामे सप्रवाहे पिबेद्वा दाडिमाम्बुना॥९॥

In the same manner, the paste of the herbs beginning with vacā (the vacādi group) mixed with rock salt (saindhava) should be taken with hot water, or it may be administered alongside madirā (medicinal fermented liquor). If the feces are heavily laden with āma (undigested toxic waste) and are eliminated with persistent straining (sapravāha), one should drink the paste of biḍa salt ground thoroughly with the juice or decoction of dāḍima – Punica granatum.
