Indications: Unilateral pain in the hypochondrium, accompanied by fever, with a tight and string-taut pulse (Jin Xian Mai). This is caused by Cold; it should be treated with warm purgatives.
Da Huang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma, 2 liang) | Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata, 2 pieces, processed) | Xi Xin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma, 2 liang)
The above three herbs are boiled in five sheng of water to obtain two sheng of decoction, which is divided into three warm doses. For robust individuals, take two and a half sheng, divided into three doses. The effect manifests after walking for approximately four or five li.
Yu Jiayan stated: Zhang Zhongjing treated cases where heat pathogenic factors caused palpitations/stuffiness in the epigastrium, complicated by symptoms of Yang deficiency and Yin excess, using the method of Fuzi Xie Xin Tang (Aconite Decoction to Drain the Epigastrium).

Zhang Luyu stated: San Cheng Qi Tangs (Three Formulas to Order the Qi) are soft agents for cold purgation; Bai San (White Powder) and Bei Ji Wan (Emergency Pill) are hard agents for hot purgation; Fuzi Xie Xin Tang... [Text fragment] ...heat accumulation... Qin... hypochondrium...

Treats Feng Zhong Fei (Wind Stroke with Flaccidity), characterized by the inability to control the body voluntarily, inability to speak, mental confusion without awareness of pain locations, or stiffness preventing turning over.
Ma Huang (Ephedrae Herba) | Gui Zhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus) | Shi Gao (Gypsum Fibrosum) | Gan Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma) | Xing Ren (Armeniacae Semen Amarum, 40 pieces) | Chuan Xiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma) | Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) | Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix) | Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (each 3 liang)
The above nine herbs are boiled in ten dou of water to obtain four sheng of decoction. Take one sheng warm per dose. It should induce slight sweating. Cover the back lightly with a thin cloth, sit leaning against a table, and if sweat appears, the disease will heal. If no sweat occurs, administer again.
Zhao Yi-de stated: In patients with Fei Bing (Flaccidity Disease), Ying and Wei Qi and Blood fail to nourish the interior and exterior, resulting in immobility of the body, dysfunction of joints and mechanisms, and disordered spirit. However, this condition has distinctions between deficiency and excess... its Ying... Wind-Bi... [Text fragment]
Treats Tai Yang Syndrome (Tai Yang Bing) where all symptoms are present, including rigidity and stiffness of the body, yet the pulse is instead deep and slow (Chen Chi). This indicates Jing Disease (Spasm). This formula governs it.
Gua Lou Gen (Trichosanthis Radix, 2 liang) | Gui Zhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus, 3 liang) | Shao Yao (Paeoniae Radix Alba, 3 liang) | Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, 2 liang) | Sheng Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, 3 liang) | Da Zao (Jujubae Fructus, 12 pieces)
The above six herbs are boiled in nine sheng of water to obtain three sheng of decoction, divided into three warm doses, aiming for slight sweating. If sweat does not occur, after a short while, drink hot congee to promote sweating.
Yu Jiayan stated: In formulas for Shang Han (Cold Damage), Gu Zhi Jia Ge Gen Tang (Decoction of Cinnamon Twig plus Kudzu Root) is used to treat rigidity of the neck and back. In cases with sweating and aversion to wind, the pathogen is at the exterior. In this case of Tai Yang Syndrome, all symptoms are present, indicating the pathogen is also at the exterior. However, due to the deep and slow pulse, it is known that the exterior pathogen is constrained by internal dampness and cannot resolve, representing an intermingling of Damp-Heat pathogens. Therefore, one should not approach it as a Wind-Cold exterior syndrome. Thus, Ge Gen (Kudzu Root) is not used for releasing the exterior and resolving muscle tension; instead, Gua Lou Gen (Trichosanthes Root) is chosen as the sovereign herb for its bitter taste entering the Yin, excelling in generating fluids and clearing heat. Combined with Gui Zhi to harmonize Ying and Wei and nourish sinews and vessels to treat spasm, this transforms the exterior-releasing method into a harmonizing method.
