Treats edema of pregnancy, where the face, eyes, and limbs are puffy and swollen like water (The fetus carries dampness; water-dampness clashes with blood, and damp-qi overflows, causing swelling of the face, eyes, and limbs. This is also the indication for Baizhu San).
Baizhu (1 qian), Shengjiang Pi (Ginger Peel), Chenpi (Aged Tangerine Peel), Fuling Pi (Poria Peel), Dafupi (Areca Peel) (each 0.5 qian). Grind into fine powder, take with rice water. *Zhimi Fang* includes Sangbaipi (Morus Bark) but lacks Baizhu (this is Wupi Yin / Five-Peel Decoction). Danxi removed Shengjiang Pi and Dafupi, adding Chuanxiong (Ligusticum Rhizome) and Mutong (Akebia Stem), to tonify the middle and guide water-dampness while moving qi (For this condition, there are cases where eating Carp Soup or Carp Congee is effective).
These are herbs for the Foot-Taiyang (Bladder) and Foot-Taiyin (Spleen) meridians. In water diseases, one should allow the pathogenic factors to be eliminated from above and below. The acrid and dispersing nature of Shengjiang Pi and Chenpi allows water to exit through the hair follicles (sweat pores); the bland and draining nature of Dafupi and Fuling Pi allows water to exit through the urinary orifice; Water abundance stems from Spleen-earth deficiency, hence Ganwen (Sweet-Warm) Baizhu is used to support Spleen-earth, acting as a dike to prevent flooding.
Treats palpitations and timidity during pregnancy, with constant restlessness and oppression, termed Zifan (Sub-health: Pregnancy-related Restlessness). (At four or five months of gestation, Ministerial Fire is active; or in midsummer when Sovereign Fire prevails excessively, both can cause this syndrome.)
Maidong (Ophiopogon Tuber) (1.5 qian), Fuling (Poria), Huangqin (Scutellaria Root) (1 qian), Renshen (Ginseng Root) (0.5 qian), Danyezhu (Bamboo Leaf) (10 slices). Another prescription: Uses Fuling as the sovereign herb, without Renshen.
These are herbs for the Hand-Taiyin (Lung) and Hand-Shaoyin (Heart) meridians. Zhuye (Bamboo Leaf) clears heat and relieves restlessness; Huangqin clears heat; Maidong cools the Lung (Heart-Fire insulting Lung leads to restlessness originating in the Lung; Fuling calms the Heart; Renshen tonifies deficiency. Pregnancy-related restlessness is often due to deficiency. If Ministerial Fire is excessive, use Zhimu Wan alone; if Sovereign Fire is excessive, use Huanglian Wan alone; if the Heart-Mind is unsettled...)
(From *Liangfang*)
Treats cough during pregnancy (Zisu).
Ziwan (Aster Root), Tiandong (Asparagus Tuber) (1 qian), Jiegeng (Platycodon Root) (0.5 qian), Gancao (Licorice Root, honey-fried), Sangbaipi (Morus Bark), Xingren (Apricot Seed) (0.3 qian), Zhuru (Bamboo Sap) (0.2 qian). Add honey, decoct and take.
This is a formula for the Hand-Taiyin (Lung) meridian. Zisu arises from Fire-Evil; the priority is to clear fire and moisten the lungs. The cool nature of Jiegeng and Sangbaipi drains the pathogen; the cold nature of Tiandong and Zhuru clears heat; the warm nature of Ziwan and Zhi Gancao, along with the moistening property of Xingren and Bai Mi (White Honey), provides lubrication.
