大熟地八两 山茱肉四两 山药四两 茯苓三两 泽泻三两 牡丹皮三两 知母二两
黄柏二两
蜜丸。
知柏八味虽云壮水制火,究竟苦寒太过,徒伤胃气,水亦无以滋生,不如用介类潜阳生
精益髓之法为妥。或肾有邪火,强阳不萎等症,可以暂用。
何首乌赤白各一斤(去皮、切片、黑豆拌、九蒸九晒)白茯苓(乳拌)半斤 牛膝(酒
浸、同首乌第七次蒸至第九次) 当归(酒洗) 枸杞(酒蒸) 菟丝子(酒浸蒸)各半斤 破
故纸(黑芝麻同拌炒)四两
蜜丸。
此温补命肾、兼摄纳下元之剂。地黄补肾中之阴,首乌补肾中之阳,各为君药,不可合
并,用各有当也。
熟地二两 山药一两五钱 牛膝(酒浸)一两五钱 枸杞(酒浸)两半 山茱肉 茯苓
(乳拌)杜仲(姜汁炒) 远志(去心) 楮实(酒蒸) 五味子(炒) 小茴香(炒) 巴
戟天(酒浸) 肉苁蓉(酒浸)各一两 石菖蒲五钱
加枣肉,蜜丸。
此方以温补脾肾为主,参以润肺金而通山泽,用意极佳。微嫌远志、菖蒲二味开透太过,
与羸乏盗汗等症不宜,不如酌用丹参、柏仁之类为妥。
苍术(酒浸) 熟地黄一斤 五味子半斤 干姜(春冬一两,秋七钱,夏五钱)
枣肉蜜丸。
此方去脾湿,润肾燥,极为老洁,然湿胜者为宜,血虚者,尚宜酌量加减。
Radix Rehmanniae Preparata (Shu Di Huang) 8 liang, Fructus Corni (Shan Zhu Yu) 4 liang, Rhizoma Dioscoreae (Shan Yao) 4 liang, Poria (Fu Ling) 3 liang, Radix Alismatis (Ze Xie) 3 liang, Cortex Moutan (Mu Dan Pi) 3 liang, Radix Anemarrhenae (Zhi Mu) 2 liang, Cortex Phellodendri (Huang Bo) 2 liang.
Made into honey pills.
Although Zhibai Bawei Wan (Anemarrhena and Phellodendron Eight-Ingredient Pill) is said to nourish water to control fire, its bitter-cold nature is excessive, merely damaging stomach qi, thereby preventing the generation of kidney water. It is more appropriate to use the method of using shellfish-type minerals to subdue yang, generate essence, and marrow. It may be used temporarily for conditions such as evil fire in the kidney or persistent erection without flaccidity.
Polygonum Multiflorum (He Shou Wu), red and white varieties, each 1 jin (peeled, sliced, mixed with black beans, steamed nine times and dried nine times), White Poria (Bai Fu Ling, mixed with milk) half a jin, Achyranthes Root (Niu Xi, soaked in wine, steamed together with He Shou Wu from the seventh to the ninth time), Angelica Sinensis (Dang Gui, washed in wine), Lycium Fruit (Gou Qi, steamed in wine), Cuscuta Seed (Tu Si Zi, soaked and steamed in wine) each half a jin, Psoralea Fruit (Po Gu Zhi, stir-fried mixed with black sesame seeds) 4 liang.
Made into honey pills.
This is a formula that warms and tonifies the Mingmen (Gate of Life) and Kidney, while also grasping and receiving the lower yuan. Rehmannia (Di Huang) tonifies the yin of the kidney, while Polygonum Multiflorum (He Shou Wu) tonifies the yang of the kidney; each serves as the sovereign drug (Jun Yao). They should not be combined indiscriminately, as each has its specific indications.
Prepared Rehmannia (Shu Di) 2 liang, Chinese Yam (Shan Yao) 1.5 qian, Achyranthes Root (Niu Xi, soaked in wine) 1.5 qian, Lycium Fruit (Gou Qi, soaked in wine) 1.5 qian, Fructus Corni (Shan Zhu Yu), Poria (Fu Ling, mixed with milk), Eucommia Bark (Du Zhong, stir-fried with ginger juice), Polygala Root (Yuan Zhi, heart removed), Broussonetia Fruit (Chu Shi, steamed in wine), Schisandra Berry (Wu Wei Zi, stir-fried), Fennel Seed (Xiao Hui Xiang, stir-fried), Morinda Root (Ba Ji Tian, soaked in wine), Cistanche Stem (Rou Cong Rong, soaked in wine) each 1 liang, Acorus Tatarinowii Rhizome (Shi Chang Pu) 5 qian.
Added jujube flesh, made into honey pills.
This formula primarily focuses on warming and tonifying the Spleen and Kidney, incorporating the intention of moistening Lung metal and unblocking the mountains and marshes, which is excellent in design. However, it is slightly concerning that Yuan Zhi and Shi Chang Pu are too opening and penetrating; they are unsuitable for conditions involving emaciation, weakness, and night sweats. It would be more appropriate to selectively use Danshen (Salvia miltiorrhiza) and Bai Ren (Bai Zi Ren) instead.
Atractylodes Macrocephala (Cang Zhu, soaked in wine), Prepared Rehmannia (Shu Di Huang) 1 jin, Schisandra Berry (Wu Wei Zi) half a jin, Dried Ginger (Gan Jiang) (1 liang in spring and winter, 7 qian in autumn, 5 qian in summer).
Made into honey pills using jujube flesh.
This formula removes dampness from the Spleen and moistens dryness in the Kidney, being extremely pure and clean. However, it is suitable for those with excess dampness; for those with blood deficiency, dosage adjustments should be considered.
