Treats Yin deficiency with fire, causing night sweats.
Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Shengdihuang (Rehmanniae Radix), Shudihuang (Rehmanniae Radix Preparata), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix), Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma), Huangbai (Phellodendri Cortex).
Decoct in water and take orally.
Ji Chuzhong stated: Sweat is originally the fluid of the Heart; its excretion and retention concern the Liver and the Lung. The opening and closing of Ying (Nutritive) Qi are governed by the Liver; the opening and closing of Wei (Defensive) Qi are governed by the Lung.
(The original text here contains fragments or formatting errors, making a complete coherent translation difficult. Based on context, it infers involvement of Ying-Wei theory and the regulation of Yin deficiency and fire movement by herbs in Liu Huang Tang, as well as using Huangqin etc. to clear heat from Yin deficiency fire.)
(In *Jingui Yaolue*)
Treats phlegm-fluid retention under the heart, presenting with distending fullness in the chest and hypochondrium, and vertigo/dizziness. It also states: Shortness of breath with slight fluid retention should be eliminated via urination, treated primarily with Ling Gui Zhu Gan Tang.
Fuling (Poria, 4 liang), Guizhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus, 3 liang), Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, 3 liang), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, 3 liang).
Take the above four ingredients, add six sheng of water, decoct to obtain three sheng, divide into three warm doses. Urination will become unobstructed after administration.
Zhao Yi-de stated: The *Lingshu* says that if the pulse of the Pericardium Meridian moves abnormally, disease such as distending fullness in the chest and hypochondrium occurs. This refers to phlegm-fluid accumulating in the Pericardium, where the pathology must manifest thus.
(The original text here is fragmented. It is inferred to mean eliminating distension, tonifying Spleen Earth, allowing Kidney Qi to flow freely so the "gate" opens naturally, and praising the profound elucidation of the two meanings of respiration.)
Those who frequently vomit should normally feel thirsty; thirst indicates the disease is resolving. Now, they do not feel thirsty, because there is Zhi Yin (branching fluid/phlegm-fluid) under the heart.
Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma, 1 sheng), Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, 0.5 jin).
Add seven sheng of water, decoct to obtain one and a half sheng, divide into two warm doses.
Treats sudden vomiting, epigastric stuffiness/obstruction, and intermittent vertigo and palpitations caused by fluid retention.
Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma, 1 sheng), Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, 0.5 jin), Fuling (Poria, 3 liang).
Decoct and administer as described above.
Treats phlegm-fluid and old water retained in the chest and heart region. After spontaneous vomiting of clear fluid, if there remains a sensation of empty Qi fullness in the chest and heart preventing eating, this formula eliminates phlegm-Qi, enabling the patient to eat.
Fuling (Poria), Renshen (Ginseng Radix), Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma) (each 3 liang), Zhishi (Aurantii Fructus Immaturus, 2 liang), Jupi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, 2.5 liang), Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, 4 liang).
Take the above six ingredients, add six sheng of water, decoct to obtain one and eight-tenths sheng. Divide into three doses. If a person walks for the distance covered in eight or nine li, administer another dose.
Zhao Yi-de stated: Vomiting occurs because phlegm-fluid disturbs the Middle Jiao, surging upward and being expelled. After vomiting ceases, thirst should naturally follow; if thirsty, it can be confirmed that the Zhi Yin has been completely removed. Now, however, there is no thirst,
(The original text here is fragmented. It is inferred to mean damaging Kidney pathogens and calming the Spirit. The subsequent addition of Renshen, Zhishi, and Jupi is because Qi in the Upper and Middle Jiao is weak. Fluid enters the Stomach, but the Spleen cannot transport it to the Lung, and the Lung cannot regulate water passages, leading to accumulation as phlegm and old water. After vomiting, descending Qi becomes stagnant, so it is necessary to tonify Middle Qi, using Renshen and Baizhu as Sovereign herbs; Fuling drives out old water, Zhishi regulates various Qis as Minister herbs, Chenpi and Shengjiang as Envoy herbs. Once accumulated fluids are gone, but empty Qi fills the interior,)
