Note: The original prescription above treats Stagnant Fire in the Liver and Gallbladder meridians, resulting in hypochondriac pain, dizziness, epigastric pain centered at the heart region, radiating pain in the scapula, or redness and pain in both eyes extending to the Taiyang meridian. (All the aforementioned symptoms are caused by Liver Fire rushing upward.) It is also suitable for conditions involving the Six Meridians where Yang pulses are observed. For women whose Liver is injured by depression and anger, leading to reckless bleeding, leukorrhea or metrorrhagia with blood, sand-like dysuria, uterine bleeding, and turbid discharge, (all of which are caused by Liver Fire flowing downward), this formula should be used with modifications. The I Ching states: "Wind disperses it." This refers to this formula.
Whenever the tongue presents a bluish color and is slippery/moist, it indicates Qi Timidity of the Gallbladder organ; the governing formula is Shi Wei Wen Dan Tang (Ten-Ingredient Decoction to Warm the Gallbladder) without Zhi Shi (Aurantii Fructus Immaturus).

Note: The above formula treats Heart Deficiency and Gallbladder Timidity, where Qi stagnation generates phlegm-saliva, and the phlegm-saliva contends with Qi, giving rise to various symptoms. These include being easily startled by events, dreaming of inauspicious things, shortness of breath with palpitations and fear, spontaneous sweating with deficiency vexation, bitter taste in the mouth with vomiting of saliva, excessive phlegm with insomnia, as well as nocturnal emission and startle dreams.
