Answer

Study question (generated from the text)

The text says it revives even a person close to death; it is kept in a horn.

Detailed answer

Equal parts of manjishtha, licorice, both drumsticks, turmeric, lac, realgar, orpiment, ingudi, cardamom and renuka are powdered and mixed with the group of urines (the commentary: eight kinds) and the salts (five kinds). The text gives no route or dose, and it contains arsenic minerals, so it belongs to professional practice only.
