Guizhi Renshen Tang (Cinnamon Twig and Ginseng Decoction)
(Condition Note: Exterior syndrome unresolved with interior deficiency)
When the exterior symptoms persist and purgatives have been administered repeatedly, resulting in interior deficiency, feverish diarrhea, and fullness (pi), one should simultaneously employ Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma), Gan Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma), Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma), Gui Zhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus), and Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma). This constitutes an ingenious method of supporting the healthy qi while attacking the pathogenic factor.
Dahuang Huanglian Xiexin Tang (Rhubarb and Coptis Decoction for Draining the Epigastrium)
(Condition Note: Exterior syndrome resolved, interior excess with heat above)
Sweating or purging may lead to yang depletion, manifesting prominently in pathological signs. If chills persist, Guizhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction) should still be administered. Only after the exterior syndrome is completely resolved should the fullness be treated by attacking it. Huang Lian (Coptidis Rhizoma) and Da Huang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma) are used via infusion/steeping.
Fuzi Xiexin Tang (Aconite Decoction for Draining the Epigastrium)
(Condition Note: Exterior syndrome resolved, interior excess with cold below)
The occurrence of epigastric fullness (pi) requires careful differentiation. Chills accompanied by sweating indicate yang depletion. Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata) should be decocted separately and heavily to specifically warm the interior, while Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix), Huang Lian (Coptidis Rhizoma), and Da Huang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma) are lightly infused. The two preparations are then combined.
(Condition Note: Exterior syndrome resolved with water retention in the interior)
After the exterior syndrome resolves, palpitations arise due to internal disharmony. Conditions involving retained fluid and phlegm are common. Symptoms include headache, hypochondriac pain, and dry retching, with epigastric fullness remaining unrelieved.
Shizao Tang (Ten Jujube Decoction)
After the exterior cold resolves, water pathogens injure the body. To treat fullness, Shizao Tang (Ten Jujube Decoction) should be decocted first. Da Ji (Euphorbiae Pekinensis Radix), Yuan Hua (Genkwa Flos), and Gan Sui (Kansui Radix) are added; this formula is excellent for eliminating accumulated fluids.
(Condition Note: Exterior syndrome resolved with interior fullness)
Fullness invades the heart region, causing hardness that does not shift. Stomach qi rebels causing belching without food odor, and digestion is slow. Water stagnates under the hypochondrium forming retained fluid, while the abdomen makes rumbling sounds accompanied by diarrhea.
Shengjiang Xiexin Tang (Fresh Ginger Decoction for Draining the Epigastrium)
Ban Xia (Pinelliae Rhizoma) and Sheng Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) descend turbid yin. To clear heat from the heart and gallbladder, Huang Lian (Coptidis Rhizoma) and Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix) are used. Since sweating damages middle qi, warming and tonification are appropriate, employing Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Gan Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma), Da Zao (Jujubae Fructus), and Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma).
(Condition Note: Exterior syndrome resolved with interior fullness)
Diarrhea occurs dozens of times a day. Water and food remain in the abdomen making rumbling sounds. Restlessness, dry retching, and repeated attempts to treat fullness lead to stomach deficiency and the generation of rebellious qi (pathogenic factors arising from deficiency).
Gancao Xiexin Tang (Licorice Decoction for Draining the Epigastrium)
Tonifying the spleen is the specialty of Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) and Da Zao (Jujubae Fructus). Ban Xia (Pinelliae Rhizoma) and Sheng Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) are used to descend rebellion and warm cold. Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix) and Huang Lian (Coptidis Rhizoma) are added to clear upper heat. For severe fullness caused by stomach deficiency, this formula has the power to restore balance.
Chishizhi Yuyuliang Tang (Red Halloysite and Metastone Decoction)
(Condition Note: Interior dampness with slippery stool/incontinence)
Xiexin Tang (Decoctions for Draining the Epigastrium) and Lizhong Tang (Regulate the Middle Decoction) have already been taken, yet treating diarrhea remains ineffective. Slippery incontinence of the lower jiao requires astringent methods. Chishizhi (Halloysitum Rubrum) and Yuyuliang (Metastone) possess unique strength.
(Condition Note: Interior dampness with water retention - Formula see Sunyang Benbing Chapter)
Water retention after purgation is the root of the disease. Even after taking Xiexin Tang, fullness persists. Furthermore, urination is difficult, thirst is present, and restlessness occurs in the chest.
