Zhi Zi (Gardeniae Fructus, fifteen seeds, broken) Bo Pi (Phellodendri Cortex, two liang) Gan Cao (Licorice Root, one liang)
The above three herbs. Use four sheng of water. Decoct to obtain one and a half sheng of liquid. Remove the dregs. Divide into two doses and take warm. Taiyang disease originally involves cold-dampness. Due to sweating for Shanghan, the qi steams and transforms into heat, thus manifesting externally. This does not refer to fever caused by exterior pathogens. Therefore, Zhi Zi clears heat from the muscle and surface; Huang Bai removes damp-heat from the Bladder; Gan Cao harmonizes the interior and exterior.
Zhi Shi (Immature Bitter Orange Fruit, three pieces) Zhi Zi (Gardeniae Fructus, fourteen seeds, charred) Chi Xiao Dou (Prepared Soybean, one sheng, wrapped in silk)
The above three herbs. Use seven sheng of sour grain water. First boil empty until four sheng remain, then add Zhi Shi and Zhi Zi, boil for two boils. Add Chi Xiao Dou and boil for five or six boils. Remove the dregs. Divide into two doses and take warm. Cover with blankets to induce sweating.
Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix, three liang) Gan Cao (Licorice Root, two liang, honey-fried) Shao Yao (Paeoniae Radix Alba, two liang, wine-washed) Da Zao (Jujube Fruit, twelve pieces, broken)
The above four herbs. Use one dou of water. Decoct to obtain three sheng of liquid. Remove the dregs. Take one sheng warm. Administer twice daily.
Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix, three liang) Gan Cao (Licorice Root, two liang, honey-fried) Shao Yao (Paeoniae Radix Alba, two liang, wine-washed) Ban Xia (Pinelliae Rhizoma, half sheng, washed) Sheng Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, three and a half liang, sliced) Da Zao (Jujube Fruit, twelve pieces, broken)
The above six herbs. Use one dou of water. Decoct to three sheng. Remove the dregs. Take one sheng warm. Administer twice during the day and once at night.
Bai Shao Yao (Paeoniae Radix Alba, four liang, wine-washed) Gan Cao (Licorice Root, four liang, honey-fried)

This is Guizhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction) without Guizhi, Sheng Jiang, and Da Zao. The combination of sweet and sour flavors specifically treats deficiency-heat within the Ying (Nutritive) level. Because yin is deficient and yang is hyperactive, symptoms such as blood deficiency, tendon spasms, and redness of the head and face occur at night. It is also suitable for cases where excessive sweating leads to persistent fever, or when pungent-hot herbs mistakenly disturb the Ying and Blood, making the patient unable to tolerate tonification. This is an excellent formula for true blood deficiency with accompanying heat. If pulse floating and spontaneous sweating are observed, indicating disharmony between Ying and Wei, even if it is not an exterior contraction, it still belongs to the syndrome pattern of Guizhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction).
Shi Gao (Gypsum Fibrosum, one jin, crushed) Zhi Mu (Anemarrhenae Rhizoma, six liang) Gan Cao (Licorice Root, three liang) Geng Mi (Oryza Sativa Germen, six he)
The above four herbs. Use one dou of water. Decoct until the rice is cooked and the soup is ready. Remove the dregs. Take one sheng warm. Administer three times daily.
The proverb states that one should not use Bai Hu Tang (White Tiger Decoction) in spring because it purges the Lungs. This is because spring governs the rising of Yang Qi, while Shi Gao and Zhi Mu are bitter and cold with descending properties, which would purge Lung Yang and hinder its growth and development. This specifically refers to the contraindication in spring. It warns against misusing this formula to treat spontaneous sweating and thirst due to febrile diseases. As for winter and autumn, when contracting Shanghan, could one recklessly use it to damage the true Qi of the Lung and Kidney? This decoction primarily treats heat diseases where Qi deficiency prevents steaming and evaporation. In such cases, Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix) is added. Thus, Zhang Yin'an considered it a dispersing agent for the Yangming channel. For damp-warmth, Cang Zhu (Atractylodis Rhizoma) is added; for warm malaria, Gui Zhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus) is added. These are syndromes seen in summer. Hence, ancients also warned against recklessly using Bai Hu Tang (White Tiger Decoction) after the Autumnal Equinox.
