Shao Yao (Radix Paeoniae Alba, 2 qian) and Gui Zhi (Ramulus Cinnamomi, 5 qian). If there is alternating chills and fever accompanied by vomiting, add Chai Hu San (Bupleurum Powder), 2.5 qian.
Chai Hu San (from *Baoming Ji Fang*):
Chai Hu Gen (Radix Bupleuri, 1 liang), Ban Xia (Rhizoma Pinelliae, 5 qian, washed). Add Sheng Jiang (Rhizoma Zingiberis Recens) to the above and decoct. If there is epigastric fullness and stuffiness, add Zhi Shi (Fructus Aurantii Immaturus), 1 qian. If there are interior syndromes, add Da Huang (Radix et Rhizoma Rhei), starting with 1 qian for the first dose, 2 qian for the second, and 3 qian for the third; stop when the pathogenic factor is exhausted.
Discussion states: Those with sweating should not take Ma Huang Tang (Ephedra Decoction); those without sweating should not take Gui Zhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction). However, in spring and summer, sweat pores are loose; even with sweating, Gui Zhi Tang should not be used. Instead, Huang Qi Tang (Astragalus Decoction) should be used to harmonize. In autumn and winter, sweat pores are closed; even without sweating, Ma Huang Tang should not be used. Instead, Chuan Xiong Tang (Ligusticum Decoction) should be used to harmonize. In spring and summer, with sweating, if the pulse is faint and weak, and there is aversion to wind and cold, this is a Taiyang syndrome pulse characteristic of autumn/winter; Huang Qi Tang is also suitable. Without sweating, Chuan Xiong Tang is also suitable. In autumn and winter, with sweating, if the pulse is vigorous and floating, with chills and fever, this is a Yangming syndrome pulse characteristic of spring/summer; Huang Qi Tang is also suitable. Without sweating, Chuan Xiong Tang is also suitable. Generally, cases with sweating can all use Huang Qi Tang.
Huang Qi Tang (from *Baoming Ji Fang*) is used for sweating to stop it.
Huang Qi (Radix Astragali), Bai Zhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae), Fang Feng (Radix Saposhnikoviae) in equal parts. The above are cut into small pieces. Each dose is 5-7 qian to over 10 qian, or half a liang, decocted in water, taken warm as the clear liquid. For severe sweating and aversion to wind, add Gui Zhi.
Chuan Xiong Tang (from *Baoming Ji Fang*) is used for no sweating to induce diaphoresis.
Chuan Xiong (Rhizoma Chuanxiong), Bai Zhu, Qiang Huo (Rhizoma Notopterygii) in equal parts. The above are cut into small pieces, used similarly to Huang Qi Tang, taken slightly warm. For severe aversion to cold with a large and floating pulse, add Ma Huang (Herba Ephedrae).
If shanghan leads to poor appetite and thirst, only stomach-harmonizing methods to stop thirst should be used; overly cold medicines should not be used, lest they damage Yuan Qi (Original Qi) and cause inability to eat. He Wei Bai Zhu Tang (Stomach-Harmonizing Atractylodes Decoction) is suitable (from *Baoming Ji Fang*).
Bai Zhu, Fu Ling (Poria). Restlessness in sitting and lying down is called dampness, manifested as heavy body. Xiao Chai Hu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) and Huang Qin Shao Yao Tang (Scutellaria and Peony Decoction) are used. Restlessness and unstable sleep is called irritability (Fan). Zhi Chi Tang (Gardenia and Soybean Decoction) and Zhu Ye Shi Gao Tang (Bamboo Leaf and Gypsum Decoction) are used. To resolve shanghan in the four seasons and disperse pathogenic factors of the six meridians, Da Bai Zhu Tang (Major Atractylodes Decoction) is suitable (from *Baoming Ji Fang*).
Bai Zhu (2 liang), Fang Feng (1 liang), Qiang Huo (1 liang), Chuan Xiong (1 liang), Huang Qin (Radix Scutellariae, 5 qian), Xi Xin (Herba Asari, 3 qian), Bai Zhi (Radix Angelicae Dahuricae, 1.5 liang), Shi Gao (Gypsum Fibrosum, 2 liang), Zhi Mu (Rhizoma Anemarrhenae, 7 qian), Gan Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae, 5 qian or 2 qian), Zhi Shi (5 qian, pith removed). The above are made into coarse powder. Each dose is half a liang, decocted in 1.5 cups of water until one cup remains, taken warm as the clear liquid. If unresolved, take one or two more doses; the dregs are decocted again. In spring, double Fang Feng and Qiang Huo. In summer, double Huang Qin and Zhi Mu. In late summer with excessive rain, double Bai Zhu and Bai Zhi. In autumn, add Gui Zhi (5 qian). In winter, add Gui Zhi (8 qian or 1 liang). For shanghan occurring after Start of Summer until between Start of Autumn and End of Heat, the body is often slightly cool, with slight spontaneous sweating and heavy limbs, called Shi Wen (Damp-Warmth) or Shi Yin (Damp Excess). Cang Zhu Shi Gao Tang (Atractylodes and Gypsum Decoction) is suitable (from *Baoming Ji Fang*).
Cang Zhu (Radix Atractylodis Lanceae, finely cut 0.5 liang), Shi Gao Fen (Gypsum Fibrosum powder, 3 qian), Zhi Mu (cut 1.5 qian), Gan Cao (cut 1 qian). Mix evenly, make into one dose, decoct in two cups of water until one cup remains, take warm as the clear liquid. This indicates internal damp-heat. There is usually loss of appetite. If there is fever, surging pulse, no sweating, and excessive thirst, Jie Geng San (Platycodon Powder) is indicated (from *Baoming Ji Fang*).
Bo He (Herba Menthae, 1 qian), Huang Qin (1 qian), Gan Cao (1 qian, honey-fried), Jie Geng (Radix Platycodonis, 0.5 liang), Lian Qiao (Fructus Forsythiae, 2 qian), Shan Zhi Zi Ren (Semen Gossypii Herbacei? Note: Text says Shan Zhi Zi Ren, likely Gardenia seed, 2 qian).
Tai Yi Dan (Great One Pill) (from *Yang Shi Jia Cang Fang*) treats shanghan and shang feng, painful joints, aversion to cold with high fever; taking it resolves cold and clears heat.
Or if there is fever with aversion to cold, resembling miasma but not miasma, restlessness and confusion, red face, headache as if breaking, taking it induces slight sweating and immediate recovery.
Tian Nan Xing (Rhizoma Arisaematis, 4 liang, cut and fried until red but not burnt), Shi Gao (4 liang), Gan Jiang (Radix Zingiberis Secata), Gan Cao (powder weighed 3.5 liang), Qian Hu (Radix Peucedani, 2 liang), Chuan Xiong (2.1 liang), Bai Jiang Can (Serus Bombycatus, fried to remove silk and head), Bai Fu Zi (Radix Typhonii, processed), Fang Feng (deprived of root base, each 1 liang). The above are made into fine powder. Use natural juice of Sheng Jiang to boil wheat paste and form pills. Each liang makes ten pills, dried in shade. Take one pill each time, chew finely, swallow with Cong Bai (Bulbus Allii Cepae) and Bo He tea clear liquid.
Qu Du San (Toxin-Expelling Powder) (from *Yang Shi Jia Cang Fang*) dispels wind pathogen and cuts off shanghan.
Cang Zhu (4 liang, soaked overnight in rice wash water), Gan Cao (fried), Huang Qin, Chi Shao Yao (Radix Paeoniae Rubra, each 1 liang), Chi Fu Ling (Poria with red skin, 0.5 liang, peeled), Ma Huang (deprived of root and nodes, 0.5 liang). The above are made into fine powder. Each dose is 3 qian, decocted in 1.5 cups of water with 5 slices of Sheng Jiang and 15 black soybeans until one cup remains, taken hot.
Qu Han Tang (Cold-Expelling Decoction) (from *Yang Shi Jia Cang Fang*) expels cold pathogen and resolves shanghan and epidemic plague.
Qing Ju Pi (Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae Viride, 2 liang, white pith not removed), Chen Ju Pi (Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae, 2.5 liang, white pith not removed), Ding Xiang Pi (Caryophylli Flos pericarpium?), Gan Cao (fried), Gan Jiang (processed, each 1 liang). The above are made into powder. If feeling feverish and having headache, take 1 qian of medicine, mix with boiling water, at any time.
Shun Qi San (Qi-Regulating Powder) (from *Wang Shi Bo Ji Fang*) regulates cold qi and resolves shanghan.
Wu Zhu Yu (Fructus Evodiae, washed clean, 1 fen in spring/summer, 0.5 liang in autumn/winter), Ma Huang (1 liang, nodes removed), Ren Shen (Radix Ginseng, 0.5 liang), He Zi (Fructus Chebulae, 0.5 liang, fried, pitted and weighed), Da Huang (3 fen), Guan Gui (Cortex Cinnamomi, 1 liang, bark removed), Hou Po (Cortex Magnoliae Officinalis, 1 liang, bark removed, ginger juice fried), Gan Jiang (processed 0.5 liang), Chen Ju Pi (1 liang, white pith removed), Gan Cao (2 liang, fried). The above are made into powder. Each dose is 1 qian, decocted in 1 cup of water with Sheng Jiang and Da Zao (Fructus Jujubae) until 0.6 cup remains, taken through. If external pathogenic invasion...
Yi Yuan San (Benefit Origin Powder) (from *Zhi Zhi Fang*) treats body fever, vomiting, diarrhea, dysentery, bloody and white stools, strangury with pain, lower abdominal discomfort, chest accumulation of cold and heat imbalance, greatly benefits Jing Qi (Essence and Qi), opens nine orifices and six fu organs, generates fluids, removes stagnation, eliminates fluid retention, stops thirst, relieves middle-jiao thirst, removes irritability and heart restlessness, treats abdominal distension and pain, tonifies five zang organs, greatly nourishes Spleen and Kidney Qi. It treats insufficient Kidney Water, weak Stomach Earth, external contraction of wind-cold, internal injury from seven emotions, impotence and yang decline, calms soul and stabilizes spirit, tonifies five labors and seven injuries, and all deficiencies.
Hua Shi (Talcum, 6 liang, fine quality), Gan Cao (1 liang). The above are made into fine powder. Each dose is 3 qian, mixed with a little honey and warm water. Honey is optional. Take three doses regardless of time. For those desiring cold drink, mix with fresh water. To induce sweating, decoct Cong Bai and Dou Chi (Folium Sojae Preparatum) tea and mix 4 qian. Each dose uses 1 cup of water, 5 cun of Cong Bai, 50 grains of Dou Chi, boiled to 0.7 cup, then mixed. Take three doses, stopping when effective. This medicine is cold and cooling, resolving depressed heat. Even if the disease is severe and unresolved, taking more is harmless and beneficial. It was traditionally known as Tai Bai San (White Jade Powder), disliked for its cold nature and cheap ingredients, yet indispensable. For shanghan requiring sweating, purgation is contraindicated; for those requiring purgation, sweating is contraindicated. Taking this medicine prevents sweating but mildly helps interior heat. It may also help if interior heat needs venting. For half-exterior half-interior syndromes that need harmonization but not emesis or sweating, this medicine often works well. Minor modifications of Liang Ge San (Cooling Chest Powder) for harmonization are excellent. If sweating is necessary, add 3 qian of coarse Cang Zhu powder to decoct; mixing with Cong Chi Tea is best. Pregnant women should avoid Hua Shi, Ma Huang, Gui Zhi for sweating. Instead, use Gan Cao (1 liang) and Cang Zhu (2 liang) as coarse powder. Each dose is 4 qian, decocted in 1 cup of water with 5 cun Cong Bai and 50 Dou Chi until 0.6 cup remains, strain, take hot. Two to three doses to induce slight sweating. This is named Bi Du San (Force-Toxin-Out Powder), not for non-pregnant women. Or add 2 liang of Ma Huang (nodes removed) to Tai Bai San, decoct as before; known as Shen Bai San or Qing Long San. Adding twice the amount of Hua Shi powder and Cang Zhu powder makes it an excellent diaphoretic. Use only for correct sweating indications; mistaken use causes increased heat, named Da Bi Du San (Great Force-Toxin-Out Powder). For Liang Gan (Dual Meridian) syndromes, decoct Liang Ge San and mix 4 qian of Yi Yuan San. For lactation, mix with pork noodle soup or wine, 4 qian, three times daily. Eat meat and noodle porridge. For inducing labor, mix with warm oil slurry, 5 qian, two to three doses until delivery. For retained dead fetus, decoct San Yi Cheng Qi Tang (Three-One Bowel-Purging Decoction), mix 5 qian, frequently administer warm oil slurry until fetus is expelled, saving the mother. Dystocia or retained dead fetus is due to wind-dryness, damp-heat gathering and stagnating, preventing natural opening. When medicinal power arrives, stagnant heat opens suddenly and birth occurs. Afterwards, strictly avoid warming tonification which causes dry-heat. Laypeople do not know that postpartum blood loss causes pain and fear, leading to chaotic spirit and qi, damaging yin qi and causing extreme pathogenic heat syndromes. Due to ignorance of *Su Wen* transformations, they fail to observe yin-yang, wrongly assuming postpartum deficiency is purely cold without heat. Mistakenly using warm-tonifying medicines or withholding water from thirsty patients causes great harm. Healing requires assessing zang-fu and six qi excess/deficiency, clarifying root and branch, and treating accordingly. This medicine is ordinary but highly effective; laypeople ignore it, inviting contempt. Now, adding Huang Dan (Lead Monoxide) turns it peach-red, named Hong Yu San (Red Jade Powder).
