(Zhang Jingyue) Treats wind-cold injury accompanied by cough, fever, chest and epigastric fullness, and excessive phlegm.
Chai Hu (Bupleuri Radix) [1-3 qian], Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) [0.5 qian], Ban Xia (Pinelliae Rhizoma), Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) [1 qian], Sheng Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) [3-7 slices].
If cold pathogen is predominant:
For those with frequent coughing, add...
Treats exterior pathogen of Shanghan (Cold Damage) not yet resolved, presenting with heat in both interior and exterior. Indicated for cases accompanied by diarrhea, dysentery, irritability, thirst, preference for cold drinks, robust constitution, and a slippery and rapid pulse. It is also indicated for malaria and dysentery concurrent with internal heat leading to blood loss, or jaundice caused by exterior pathogen combined with other syndromes.
Chai Hu (Bupleuri Radix), Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix), Zhi Zi (Gardeniae Fructus), Ze Xie (Alismatis Rhizoma), Mu Tong (Akebiae Caulis), Zhi Qiao (Aurantii Fructus). If malaria and dysentery occur simultaneously with passage of bright red blood or pure blood in stool, add Bai Shao (Paeoniae Radix Alba) [2 qian] and Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) [1 qian].
(Zhang Jingyue) The first formula corresponds to the "Water number," utilizing cold properties to disperse. It is used for contracting irregular qi of the four seasons, manifesting as fever, alternating chills and fever, or resulting from fatigue and anger, or when heat enters the Blood Chamber in women, or after childbirth during menstruation due to exposure to wind-cold, leading to chills and fever resembling malaria. For any syndrome where there is an external pathogen combined with internal fire, treatment should follow the method of cooling dispersion; this formula is appropriate.

If internal heat is severe, add Zhi Shi (Aurantii Fructus Immaturus) [1-2 qian].
The second formula corresponds to the "Fire number," utilizing warm properties to disperse. It is suitable for those contracting external pathogens of the four seasons, whose Yuan Qi (Original Qi) is solid, whose Zang-Fu Qi is naturally balanced without internal fire, or who are in a season where internal heat is absent. Such individuals should not recklessly use cold medicines, lest the cold pathogen fail to dissipate, causing significant harm; this formula is appropriate. Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium), Ban Xia (Pinelliae Rhizoma), Xi Xin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma), Hou Po (Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex) [1-2 qian], Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) [0.8 fen], Chai Hu (Bupleuri Radix) [0.5 qian or 1-2 qian], Sheng Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) [3-7 slices].
If dampness is heavy, add Cang Zhu (Atractylodis Rhizoma). If Yin-cold pathogen is predominant, Mahuang (Ephedrae Herba) [1-2 qian must be added, or Guizhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus) may be combined; do not hesitate.
The third formula corresponds to the "Wood number," relating to the Liver Meridian and Blood aspect. It is indicated for individuals with inherent deficiency of Yin aspect and scant Liver Blood, who occasionally contract wind-cold, or where the pathogen is not deep, allowing for simultaneous tonification and dispersion. It is also suitable for post-illness or postpartum colds where dispersal is necessary but Yin Qi is weak and unable to reach the exterior.
