Ingredients: Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix), Maidong (Ophiopogonis Radix, remove the heart, each 2 liang), Baifuling (Poria, 4 liang).
Preparation and Administration: Coarsely powder the above ingredients. Take 4 qian per dose, with 2 zhan of water and more than ten slices of bamboo leaves. Decoct until 70% remains, strain, and take warm.
Yimu Wan (Motherwort Pill) treats Zi Fan (Fetal Restlessness) accompanied by deficiency and inability to lie down. (This is Zhi Mu Wan [Anemarrhenae Pill], but formed into pills using jujube flesh, taken chewed with Renshen Tang [Ginseng Decoction]. See the chapter "Ri Yue Shu Wei Zu Yu Chan Men" for the formula.)
To treat Zi Fan (Fetal Restlessness) with dry mouth and inability to lie down: Use Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma), remove the roots, grind into fine powder. Take 1 qian per dose, mixed with congee water.
[The Mai Jing] To treat postpartum residual blood not fully expelled, causing rushing sensation, restlessness, and chest oppression, drinking 2 sheng of fresh lotus root juice is very effective. (Zhuli [Bamboo Sap] may also be used.)
To treat postpartum residual blood attacking the heart, or continuous bleeding; with chest oppression, cyanotic face, and cold qi nearly causing death: Take one zhan of sheep blood in one dose. If symptoms are not stabilized, take again for immediate effect.
Postpartum blood deficiency causing Qi restlessness: Mix one zhan of Sheng Dihuang汁 (Fresh Rehmanniae Juice) with one zhan of Qingjiu (Clear Wine). Boil once, divide into two doses, and take.
To treat postpartum deficiency restlessness: Use Huyang (Polygoni Multiflori Semen), mix with flowing water from the east, and take one fangcun bi (a measure equivalent to a square inch spoonful). It is extremely effective.
To treat postpartum shortness of breath nearing cessation and mental restlessness: Use Zhuye Tang (Bamboo Leaf Decoction).
Ingredients: Zhuye (Bamboo Leaves, cut finely), Maimendong (Ophiopogonis Radix), Xiaomai (Tritici Fructus, each 1 sheng), Gancao (Licorice Root, 1 liang), Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, 2 liang), Dazao (Jujubae Fructus, 14 pieces).
Preparation and Administration: Cut the ingredients. Add 1 dou of water. First decoct Zhuye (Bamboo Leaves) and Xiaomai (Tritici Fructus) until 8 sheng remain, then strain. Add the remaining herbs and decoct until 3 sheng remain. Strain and take warm. If there is deficiency palpitation, add Renshen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma) 2 liang. If there is lack of energy, add Nuomi (Glutinous Rice) 5 he.
[Yun Qizi Lun] Postpartum deficiency restlessness with insomnia is treated with Shaoyao Zhichi Tang (Peony and Gardenia Fermented Soybean Decoction).
Ingredients: Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Zhizi (Gardeniae Fructus, each 5 qian), Xiangchi (Fermented Sojae Semen Preparatum, half he).
Preparation and Administration: Prepare and administer according to the method for Zhizi Chi Tang (Gardenia and Fermented Soybean Decoction). For postpartum Cold Damage (Shang Han), it is similar to complications after erroneous purgation. (Although this formula is considered an expedient method, it is not as stable and appropriate as Zhang Zhongjing's Suanzaoren Tang [Ziziphus Decoction].)
[The Mai Jing] Zhuye Tang (Bamboo Leaf Decoction). (See the "Xu Tiao" [Deficiency Section] for the formula.)
[Neijing] To treat postpartum irritability: Take one piece of Yuyuliang (Haematitum), shaped like a sour filling bun. Bury half of it in the ground and pack the surrounding soil tightly. Use one cheng of charcoal and one jin of hair from the crown of the head. Burn until the ash reduces by two-thirds. Cover with wet sandy soil overnight. Then take it out, remove the outer layer, and only use the inner part. Grind finely, wash and clarify with water five or seven times, dry on paper, and grind thousands of times more. Mix with Gancao (Licorice Root) decoction and take two qianbi. One dose brings immediate effect.
[Zhang Zhongjing] Sanwu Huangqin Tang (Three-Ingredient Scutellaria Decoction): When a woman is in confinement, exposed to wind due to uncovered body, suffering from heat and restlessness in the four limbs and headache, give Xiao Chaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction); if there is no headache but only restlessness, this decoction governs it. (Xiao Chaihu Tang [Minor Bupleurum Decoction] see Shang Han [Cold Damage]).
Ingredients: Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix, 1 liang), Kushen (Sophorae Flavescentis Radix, 2 liang), Gadihuang (Rehmanniae Radix, 4 liang).
