(Quansheng Formula) Treats edema in pregnancy, where the face, eyes, and limbs are puffy as if immersed in water. (This is due to dampness retained within the fetus, where water and blood contend, causing damp qi to overflow onto the body surface, resulting in edema of the face, eyes, and limbs, also known as "fetal water." The cause is often excessive drinking due to thirst and irritability, or damage to the Spleen and Stomach from diarrhea; Spleen deficiency fails to control water retention, commonly occurring around the fifth or sixth month of gestation.)
Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, 1 qian), Jiangpi (Zingiberis Recens Cortex), Chenpi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium), Fulingpi (Poriae Cortex), Dafupi (Arecae Pericarpium, 5 fen). Grind into fine powder, take with rice water. The Zhimi Fang includes Sangbaipi but excludes Baizhu.
For water diseases, one should promote dispersion from above and below. Jiangpi and Chenpi are acrid and dispersing, allowing water to exit through the hair follicles (sweat pores). Dafupi and Fulingpi are bland and draining, allowing water to exit via urination.
(Qianjin Formula) Treats abdominal distension during pregnancy caused by water qi between the fetus and mother.
Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, 5 liang), Fuling (Poria, 4 liang), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Baishao (Paeoniae Radix Alba, 3 liang). Cut the herbs finely. Take one carp, prepare it according to culinary methods, boil to extract the juice, remove the dregs, and take on an empty stomach.
Commentary: This formula uses Danggui and Baishao to nourish blood, Fuling and Baizhu to strengthen the Spleen, and Shengjiang and Chenpi to harmonize the Stomach. It relies solely on carp juice to promote diuresis, without mixing other diuretic herbs.
Treats palpitations and timidity during pregnancy, with constant mental restlessness, termed "Zi Fan" (Fetal Irritability). (Around the fourth or fifth month of conception, Ministerial Fire is active; or in midsummer, Sovereign Fire is abundant, both can invade the Lung metal causing irritability and fetal restlessness. There are also cases where retained phlegm and accumulated fluid obstruct the chest and diaphragm, leading to irritability.)
Maidong (Ophiopogonis Radix, 1.5 qian), Fuling (Poria), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix, 1 qian), Renshen (Ginseng Radix, 5 fen), Danyezhu (Lophatheri Herba, 10 leaves). If there is phlegm, add a small amount of Zhuli (Bambusae Caulis in Taenia).
Danyezhu clears irritability, Huangqin eliminates heat, Maidong cools and moistens the Lung. (Heart fire invading Lung metal causes irritability manifesting in the Lung.) Fuling calms the Heart, Renshen tonifies deficiency.
(Liangfang) Treats cough during pregnancy (Zi Sou).
Ziwan (Asteri Radix), Tiandong (Asparagi Radix, 1 qian), Jiegeng (Platycodonis Radix, 5 fen), Gancao (Licorice Root, honey-fried), Sangbaipi (Mori Cortex), Xingren (Armeniacae Semen Amarum, 3 fen), Zhuru (Bambusae Caulis in Taenia, 2 fen). Add honey, take warm.
Zi Sou is caused by fire pathogenic factors; the treatment priority is to clear fire and moisten the Lung. Jiegeng and Sangbaipi are cool to drain fire; Tiandong and Zhuru are cold to clear heat; Ziwan and Zhi Gancao...
