कफेन दुष्टं रुधिरं न शृङ्गेण विनिर्हरेत्। स्कन्नत्वात् वातपित्ताभ्यां दुष्टम् शृङ्गेण निर्हरेत्॥५०॥

The blood vitiated by Kapha should not be extracted by using a sucking horn (Shrunga) because of thickness of the blood, whereas blood vitiated by Vata and pitta should be removed by the sucking horn. Shrunga is good for Vata and Pitta imbalance and not indicated in Kapha. Ghata is good for Vata and Kapha but not for Pitta.

english translation

kaphena duSTaM rudhiraM na zRGgeNa vinirharet। skannatvAt vAtapittAbhyAM duSTam zRGgeNa nirharet॥50॥
