大黄 归尾 羌活五钱 桃仁（研） 火麻仁（去壳）一两
蜜丸。
此以通为润，非专于清润也。伏火燥结，得涤荡而始清，不待润而燥自除矣。
当归身 升麻 桃仁（研） 红花 甘草（炙）一钱 生地黄 熟地五分
虽云病在幽门，亦无专治幽门之药，不外调和气血，开通胃府，清升浊降，而上下自安。
惟不用香燥攻下，最为有识。
韭菜汁 牛乳
等分，时时呷之。
韭汁祛瘀生新，又能开通胃气；牛乳补血润燥，兼通大肠。不用辛热，劫阴伤津，洵为
良法。
黄 熟地 芍药 五味子 麦冬三两 天冬 人参 甘草三钱 茯苓一两
每服三钱。加乌梅、姜、枣煎。
气血并补，敛阴生津，极为有力。惟方既有五味，不必再加乌梅。
黄连 天花粉 生地汁 藕汁 牛乳
将黄连、花粉为末调服。
治胃热消渴，无花粉宜重用，黄连当用胡连，盖川连但能泻心火，生津止渴不如胡连之
为佳也。

此方妙处在清金润肺，以益水之源；又有泽泻、枳壳以泄郁热。斯渴止而烦躁亦除矣。

蜜丸，磁石汤送下。
金水俱伤，方成下消。蛇床子燥烈如火，万不可用，即鸡 之消导、磁石之镇坠，皆
非此症所宜。
Dahuang (Rhizoma et Radix Rhei), Dangguiwei (Radix Angelicae Sinensis Cauda), Qianghuo (Rhizoma et Radix Notopterygii) each 5 qian; Taoren (Semen Persicae, crushed), Huomaren (Fructus Cannabis, shelled) 1 liang.
Made into honey pills.
This formula achieves moistening through purgation ("tong"), rather than relying solely on cooling and moistening agents. Latent fire and dryness accumulation are cleared only after being swept away; without needing direct moistening, the dryness is naturally eliminated.
Dangguishen (Radix Angelicae Sinensis Root Body), Shengma (Rhizoma Cimicifugae), Taoren (Semen Persicae, crushed), Honghua (Flos Carthami), Zhigancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata) 1 qian; Shengdihuang (Radix Rehmanniae Preparata), Shudihuang (Radix Rehmanniae Preparata) 5 fen.
Although it is said that the disease is located at the pylorus (Youmen), there are no specific drugs for treating the pylorus alone. The treatment essentially involves harmonizing Qi and Blood, unblocking the Stomach Fu organ, allowing clear Qi to ascend and turbid Qi to descend, thereby bringing peace to the upper and lower parts.
The wisdom lies particularly in avoiding aromatic-dry and purgative methods.
Jiucaizhi (Expressed Juice of Allium tuberosum), Niurou (Lactis Bovinis).
In equal proportions, sip occasionally.
Jiucaizhi removes blood stasis and generates new blood, while also opening up Stomach Qi; Niurou nourishes Blood and moistens dryness, and additionally unblocks the Large Intestine. By avoiding acrid-hot substances that might consume Yin fluids and damage Jin Ye (Body Fluids), this is indeed an excellent method.
Huangqi (Radix Astragali), Shudihuang (Radix Rehmanniae Preparata), Shaoyao (Radix Paeoniae Alba), Wuweizi (Fructus Schisandrae), Maidong (Radix Ophiopogonis) each 3 liang; Tiantong (Radix Asparagi), Renshen (Radix Ginseng), Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata) 3 qian; Fuling (Poria) 1 liang.
Take 3 qian per dose. Decoct with Wumei (Fructus Mume), Shengjiang (Rhizoma Zingiberis Recens), and Dazao (Fructus Jujubae).
Simultaneously tonifies both Qi and Blood, astringes Yin and generates fluids, with considerable potency. Since the formula already contains Wuweizi, there is no need to add Wumei.
Huanglian (Rhizoma Coptidis), Tianhuafen (Radix Trichosanthis), Shengdizhi (Expressed Juice of Radix Rehmanniae), Ouji (Expressed Juice of Rhizoma Nelumbinis), Niurou (Lactis Bovinis).
Grind Huanglian and Tianhuafen into powder and take with liquid mixture.
Treats Xiao Ke (Wasting-Thirst syndrome) caused by Stomach Heat. If Tianhuafen is unavailable, other herbs should be heavily used; Huanglian should be replaced with Hulian (Rhizoma Coptidis var. chinensis or similar), as Chuanlian (standard Rhizoma Coptidis) can only drain Heart Fire, whereas its ability to generate fluids and quench thirst is inferior to Hulian.
Renshen (Radix Ginseng), Huangqi (Radix Astragali, honey-fried), Zhigancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata), Shengdihuang (Radix Rehmanniae Preparata), Shudihuang (Radix Rehmanniae Preparata), Tiantong (Radix Asparagi), Maidong (Radix Ophiopogonis), Pipaye (Folium Eriobotryae, honey-fried), Shihu (Caulis Dendrobii), Zexie (Rhizoma Alismatis), Zhike (Fructus Aurantii, bran-fried).
In equal proportions, take 3 qian per dose.
The brilliance of this formula lies in clearing Metal (Lung) and moistening the Lungs to benefit the source of Water (Kidney); furthermore, Zexie and Zhike drain stagnant heat. Thus, thirst ceases and irritability is removed.
Fuling (Poria), Huanglian (Rhizoma Coptidis), Tianhuafen (Radix Trichosanthis), Bixie (Rhizoma Dioscoreae Hypoglaucae), Shudihuang (Radix Rehmanniae Preparata), Renshen (Radix Ginseng), Fupenzi (Fructus Rubi), Xuan Shen (Radix Scrophulariae) 1 liang, Shihu (Caulis Dendrobii), Shechuangzi (Fructus Cnidii) 7 qian 5 fen, Ji Nei Jin (Endosteum Gigeriae Galli) 30 units.
Made into honey pills, taken with Ci Shi Tang (Magnetite Decoction).
When Metal and Water (Lung and Kidney) are both injured, it constitutes Xia Xiao (Lower Wasting-Thirst). Shechuangzi is extremely drying and hot like fire and must absolutely not be used. Similarly, the digestive action of Ji Nei Jin and the sedative/heavy nature of Ci Shi are not suitable for this condition.
