In general, for individuals with deficiency-consumption (Xu Lao), if they consume excessive alcohol and eat fewer grains, heat will generate internally in the Stomach. If, after becoming heavily intoxicated, one is exposed to wind or enters water, it leads to jaundice of the body and eyes, mental restlessness and pain in the epigastrium, fullness and swelling of the lower legs, yellow urine, and red macules on the face. If purgatives are used, over time this may transform into black jaundice. The symptoms manifest as blackening of the face and eyes, a sensation in the heart region as if eating minced garlic, completely black stools, numbness of the skin and extremities, and a floating and weak pulse; thus, wine jaundice can be diagnosed. If there is a sensation of nausea in the heart region, vomiting should be induced to achieve a cure. If urination is difficult, followed by heat in the epigastric region and heat under the soles of the feet, these are the symptomatic manifestations. A floating pulse indicates that vomiting should be induced; a deep and wiry pulse indicates that purging should be employed.
For treating wine jaundice with symptoms of mental restlessness and epigastric pain, fullness and swelling of the lower legs, yellow urine, and red macules on the face, use the Dahuang San (Rhubarb Powder) formula:
Radix et Rhizoma Rhei (Dahuang, 1 liang, crushed, slightly stir-fried) Fructus Aurantii Immaturus (Zhishi, 1 liang, bran-fried until slightly yellow) Semen Gossypii Herbacei (Zhizi Ren, 1 liang) Semen Sojae Preparatum (Chidou, 3 he)
