Fuling (Poria, 8 liang) Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig, 4 liang) Gancao (Licorice Root, 2 liang, honey-fried) Dazao (Jujube, 12 pieces)
Take the above four herbs. Boil them in one dou of Ganlan Water (Gentle Wave Water). First boil Fuling until the liquid reduces by two sheng. Then add the remaining herbs and boil to obtain three sheng of decoction. Strain the dregs. Take one sheng warm, three times a day.
Method for preparing Ganlan Water: Take two dou of water, place it in a large basin, and scoop it up and down with a ladle repeatedly. When five or six thousand pearl-like bubbles appear on the surface and chase each other, use this water.
Moxibustion or burning needle therapy induces sweating. If the puncture site is exposed to cold and develops a nodule that is red, Ben Tun (Rushing Pig) Qi will inevitably arise. If there is a sensation of Qi rushing from the lower abdomen to the heart, this constitutes an attack of Ben Tun. One should first apply one moxa cone (zhuang) on each nodule to disperse the external cold, then administer Guizhi Jia Guixi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction plus Cinnamon Twig), adding two liang more Guizhi.
After excessive sweating, Yang Qi becomes deficient, Spleen Qi sinks, and Liver Wood Qi fails to circulate freely. Once the needle pore is closed by external cold, Wind-Wood Qi becomes stagnant and agitated, inevitably triggering Ben Tun. If Qi rushes from the lower abdomen to the chest and heart, it is an attack of Ben Tun. It is appropriate to first apply one moxa cone on each nodule to scatter the external cold, and then use Guizhi Jia Guixi Tang with additional Guizhi to soothe Wind-Wood and descend the Ben Tun. ("Guizhi Jia Guixi" means adding more Guizhi to the base formula Guizhi Tang.)
Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig, 5 liang) Shaoyao (Peony Root, 3 liang) Gancao (Licorice Root, 2 liang) Dazao (Jujube, 12 pieces) Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger, 3 liang)
Add two liang more Guizhi to the standard Guizhi Tang, totaling five liang. All other ingredients and preparation methods follow the previous prescription.
In Taiyang Disease (Taiyang Syndrome), if after purgative treatment the patient experiences Qi rushing upward, Guizhi Tang may be administered using the method described above. If there is no upward rushing of Qi, do not administer it.
If Qi rushes upward after purgation, it indicates an onset of Ben Tun; Guizhi Tang can be used to soothe Wind-Wood and descend the rushing Qi according to the aforementioned method. If there is no upward rush, Ben Tun has not yet occurred, and the previous decoction should not be given.
In Shanghan (Cold Damage) with a floating pulse, if the physician uses fire therapy to force sweating and deplete fluids, leading to Wang Yang (Loss of Yang), symptoms such as fright, mania, restlessness, and inability to lie still will definitely occur. This should be treated with Guizhi Qu Shaoyao Jia Shuqi Longgu Muli Jiuni Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction minus Peony plus Chinese Tussac, Dragon Bone, and Oyster Shell Rescue the Adverse Decoction).
Excessive sweating leads to loss of Yang, causing the Ministerial Fire to soar and the Hun and Shen (Soul and Spirit) to lose their residence, resulting in fright. Turbid Qi rises inversely, transforming into foul turbidity that obstructs the Heart Palace, resulting in mania. In Guizhi Tang plus Shuqi, Longgu, and Muli: Guizhi and Gancao soothe the Liver Wood and nourish the Middle Jiao; Shengjiang and Dazao tonify the Spleen and descend adverse Qi; Shuqi expels rot and stasis to treat mania; Longgu and Muli astringe the Hun and Shen to stop fright.
Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig, 3 liang, bark removed) Gancao (Licorice Root, 2 liang, honey-fried) Dazao (Jujube, 12 pieces) Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger, 3 liang) Shuqi (Chinese Tussac, 3 liang, washed to remove fishy odor) Longgu (Dragon Bone, 4 liang) Muli (Oyster Shell, 5 liang, calcined)
Grind the above seven herbs into coarse powder. Add one dou and two sheng of water. First boil Shuqi until the volume reduces by two sheng. Then add the remaining herbs and boil to obtain three sheng of decoction. Strain the dregs. Take one sheng warm.
