【发明】弘景曰∶若人初得头痛，直饮人尿数升，亦多愈；合葱、豉作汤服，弥佳。宗
曰∶人溺，须童子者佳。产后温饮一杯，压下败血恶物。有饮过七日者。过多恐久远血脏
寒，令人发带病，人亦不觉。若气血虚无热者，尤不宜多服。此物性寒，故热劳方中用之。
震亨曰∶小便降火甚速。常见一老妇，年逾八十，貌似四十。询其故。常有恶病，人教服人
尿，四十余年矣，且老健无他病，而何谓之性寒不宜多服耶？凡阴虚火动，热蒸如燎，服药
无益者，非小便不能除。时珍曰∶小便性温不寒，饮之入胃，随脾之气上归于肺，下通水道
而入膀胱，乃其旧路也。故能治肺病，引火下行。凡人精气，清者为血，浊者为气；浊之清
者为津液，清之浊者为小便。小便与血同类也，故其味咸而走血，治诸血病也。按《褚澄遗
书》云∶人喉有窍，则咳血杀人。喉不停物，毫发必咳。血既渗入，愈渗愈咳，愈咳愈渗。
惟饮溲溺，则百不一死；若服寒凉，则百不一生。又吴球《诸证辨疑》云∶诸虚吐衄咯血，
须用童子小便，其效甚速。盖溲溺滋阴降火，消瘀血，止吐衄诸血。但取十二岁以下童子，
绝其烹炮咸酸，多与米饮，以助水道。每用一盏，入姜汁或韭汁二三点，徐徐服之，日进二
三服。寒天则重汤温服，久自有效也。又成无已云∶伤寒少阴证，下利不止，厥逆无脉，干

(From *Bencao Gangmu*)
[Indications] Malignant sores, food polyps, removal of facial scars; healing within one month (Chen Zangqi). Treatment for "ghost-licking head" in children: burn urine to ash and mix with lard from the twelfth lunar month to apply topically (Li Shizhen).
(Pronounced "nu diao qie", also written as "niào". From *Bielu*)
[Names] Sou (from *Huangdi Neijing Suwen*), Xiao Bian (from *Huangdi Neijing Suwen*), Lunhui Jiu (Reincarnation Wine, from *Bencao Gangmu*), Huanyuan Tang. Li Shizhen stated: The character for urine consists of "corpse" (Shi) and "water" (Shui), forming a compound ideogram. Medical practitioners call it Reincarnation Wine or Return-to-Origin Soup, which are euphemisms. After drinking, it enters the Stomach, where essence floats and rises, being transported to the Spleen; the Spleen scatters essence, sending it upward to the Lung; it regulates water passages, transporting downward to the Bladder. The water passage refers to the Lanmen gate. Its main function is to separate fluids from grain; dregs enter the Large Intestine, while fluid seeps into the Bladder. The Bladder is the official of the Zhou Du, the repository of Jin Ye (Body Fluids); only through Qi transformation can it discharge urine. The *Yin Yang Ying Xiang Lun* states: Clear Yang ascends to Heaven, Turbid Yin descends to Earth; Earth's Qi rises to become clouds, Heaven's Qi descends to become rain. Thus, Clear Yang exits through the upper orifices, and Turbid Yin exits through the lower orifices.
[Flavor and Nature] Salty, Cold, Non-toxic.
[Indications] Chills, fever, headache, and Wen Qi (Warm Qi disorder). Urine from prepubertal boys is particularly effective (*Bielu*). It treats chronic cough with asthma and loss of voice, as well as accumulations causing abdominal fullness (Su Gong). It brightens the eyes, benefits the voice, moistens skin, promotes bowel movement, eliminates stale matter and generates new tissue, treats cough and Fei Wei (Lung Atrophy), and dispels Gui Qi (Ghost Qi) and Zhu Bing (Sticking Disease). Stored urine is better for consumption. If feared to be cold, mix with hot water before taking (Chen Zangqi). It stops labor-related thirst, moistens Heart and Lungs, treats blood heat with mania, traumatic injuries, internal stasis obstructing circulation, stops hematemesis and epistaxis, treats skin cracking, dystocia, retained placenta, and snake/dog bites (Meng Xun). It nourishes Yin and descends Fire very rapidly (Zhen Heng). It kills parasites and detoxifies, treating malaria (Li Shizhen).
[Elucidation] Tao Hongjing said: If a person initially suffers from headache, drinking several sheng of human urine directly often leads to recovery; mixing with Scallion and Fermented Soybean Decoction for oral administration is even better. Zong said: Human urine is best when from a child. After childbirth, drinking a cup warm helps suppress bad blood and foul matter. Some drink it for seven days. Excessive consumption may cause long-term coldness in the Blood Zang organs, leading to Dai Mai (Girdle Vessel) diseases, though people may not realize it. Those with Qi and Blood deficiency without heat should especially avoid excessive use. Since this substance is Cold, it is used in formulas treating Heat-Lao (Deficiency Heat). Zhen Heng said: Urine descends Fire very rapidly. I once saw an old woman over eighty who looked forty. Asking why, she explained she had a chronic illness and was taught to drink human urine for over forty years; she remained robust without other illnesses. How can one say it is Cold and unsuitable for much use? For cases of Yin deficiency with Fire hyperactivity, where heat steams like burning and medicines fail, only urine can eliminate it. Li Shizhen said: Urine is Warm, not Cold. Upon entering the Stomach, it follows Spleen Qi up to the Lung, then down through water passages into the Bladder, returning to its original path. Thus, it treats Lung diseases and guides Fire downward. In humans, clear essence becomes Blood, turbid essence becomes Qi; clear within turbid becomes Jin Ye, turbid within clear becomes urine. Urine is similar to Blood; thus, its salty flavor enters the Blood channel, treating various Blood disorders. According to *Chu Cheng Yi Shu*: If the throat has openings, coughing blood kills. The throat does not retain foreign objects; even a hair causes coughing. Once blood seeps in, more seepage causes more coughing, and more coughing causes more seepage. Only by drinking urine is there less than one death in a hundred; if cold-natured medicines are taken, none survive. Wu Qiu's *Zhuzheng Banyi* states: For various deficiency-type hematemesis, epistaxis, and hemoptysis, child urine must be used for rapid effect. This is because urine nourishes Yin, descends Fire, resolves blood stasis, and stops bleeding. Only take urine from boys under twelve years old; avoid cooking with salty or sour substances; provide plenty of rice drink to assist water passages. Use one zhan per dose, add two or three drops of Ginger Juice or Chinese Leek Juice, and take slowly. Administer two to three times daily. In cold weather, warm it in a double boiler; effectiveness will appear over time. Cheng Wuyi said: In Shaoyin syndrome of Shanghan (Cold Damage), with continuous diarrhea, cold limbs, absent pulse, dry vomiting, and desire to drink water, adding salty-bitter-cold substances like human urine and Pig Bile to Baotong Decoction (with Ginger and Aconite) allows their energies to harmonize, resolving rejection issues.
[Attached Formulas] Seven old formulas, thirty-eight new formulas.
Severe Headache: One zhan of Child Urine, half he of Fermented Soybean Hearts, decoct together until reduced to five fen, take warm. (*Shengji Zonglu*)
Heat Disease with Sore Throat: Three he of Child Urine, hold in mouth to stop pain. (*Taiping Shenghui Fang*)
Bone-Burning Fever: Five sheng of urine from a three-year-old boy, decoct to obtain one sheng, mix with three spoons of Honey. Take two bowls per dose, repeat after half a day. Thereafter, continuously consume one's own urine; mild cases heal in twenty days, severe in fifty. After twenty days, worms like centipedes may appear on the body. If one smells the patient's urine odor within ten steps, it indicates healing. Daoist Zhang of Danxian Temple in Taizhou suffered from this and found self-administration miraculous. (*Meng Xun Bi Xiao Fang*)
Male and Female Weakness Syndromes: Men use virgin girl's urine, women use virgin boy's urine. Discard the first and last parts. Take twice daily, pressing with dry baked cakes. Full recovery in over a month. (*Taiping Shenghui Fang*)
Chronic Cough with Sputum, Fei Wei (Lung Atrophy) with intermittent chills/fever, red cheeks, and rapid breathing. Use five he of Child Urine (discard ends), soak one cun of roasted large Powdered Licorice Root (broken into four pieces) overnight exposed to air. Remove licorice, take all at dawn. Alternatively, mix with one qian of licorice powder. One dose daily. Boys should avoid five pungent hot foods. (*Yao Sengyuan Ji Yan*)
Fei Wei with Cough, Ghost Qi and Zhu Disease: Daily warm consumption of stored smelly urine. (*Ji Yan Fang*)
Hematemesis and Epistaxis: Mix human urine with Ginger Juice evenly, take one sheng. (Rihuazi)
Severe Xiao Ke (Wasting-Thirst): Take water from communal urination pits, one zhan to drink. Do not let the patient know. Heal after three doses. (*Taiping Shenghui Fang*)
Abdominal Masses Unresponsive to Other Medicines: One sheng of human urine per dose. Expels blood clots; clears within twenty days. (Su Gong *Bencao*)
Intestinal Colic Pain: Take child urine; pain stops immediately. (*Taiping Shenghui Fang*)
Sudden Abdominal Pain: Have someone straddle the abdomen and urinate into the umbilicus. (*Zhouhou Beiji Fang*)
Intermittent Dysentery: Two liang of Apricot Kernels (skin removed, fried, ground). Slice one pig liver, wash clean of blood. Place in clean pot alternating layers of liver and kernels. Decoct with two sheng of child urine until dry. Cool and eat as desired. (*Taiping Shenghui Fang*)
Malaria with Severe Thirst: Mix child urine with honey, boil, take in one dose. (*Jianbian Fang*)
Miasma and Various Malarial Fevers, New or Old: One sheng of child urine, add two spoons of white honey, stir to remove foam, take in one dose. Ideally induces vomiting of green bile-phlegm. Otherwise, it will not cure. (*Taiping Shenghui Fang*)
Heatstroke Coma: In summer, if someone dies of heat on the road, move quickly to shade. Scoop hot soil from the road around the umbilicus to form a basin. Urinate into it until full. Warm qi penetrating the umbilicus restores consciousness. Then administer Earth Slurry and Garlic Water. Lin Yi said: This method originates from Zhang Zhongjing. Its intent is extraordinary, beyond common understanding and standard materia medica. It is truly a major emergency technique. The umbilicus is the root of life; heat damages Qi. Warming the umbilicus reconnects Yuan Qi. Evil Qi Unconsciousness: Urinate on the face to restore consciousness. This is Bian Que's method. (*Zhouhou Beiji Fang*)
Thirty-Year Epilepsy, All Qi Masses, Chronic Cold Evil Diseases: Two jin of Sophora Root, one dou two sheng of child urine. Decoct to six sheng. Mix with glutinous rice and yeast, make wine as usual, and drink. Treats all abdominal diseases. Wine keeps for two to three years without spoiling; making much saves lives miraculously. (*Taiping Shenghui Fang*)
Metal Wounds with Wind Invasion: Wash self with own urine two to three times daily; safe to enter water. (*Taiping Shenghui Fang*)
Metal Wounds with Unstoppable Bleeding: Drink five sheng of human urine. (*Qianjin Fang*)
Blunt Trauma with Blood Stasis Attacking Heart: Decoct human urine, take one sheng. Once daily. (Su Gong *Bencao*)
Fractures and Falls: Mix child urine with a little wine and drink. Eliminates stale matter and generates new tissue; efficacy is great. Xue Yi said: I was at Junyong Pass and saw seven people injured in a cart overturn, groaning on the ground. I had them all灌 (irrigate/drink) this, and they were fine. For all injuries, regardless of strength or presence of stasis, this is suitable. If ribs are distended, painful, febrile, irritable, or thirsty, drinking one ou of this is superior to other medicines. Other medicines may be effective but could harm if no stasis exists. Child urine does not disturb Zang-Fu or damage Qi and Blood; it is foolproof. Often used in armies.
Cane Wounds with Swelling and Toxicity: Taking child urine is good. (*Qianjin Fang*)
Burns with Suffocation and Unconsciousness: Fresh urine, take two to three sheng in one dose. Good. (*Qianjin Fang*)

Dead Fetus in Uterus: Boil husband's urine, two sheng, and drink. (*Qianjin Fang*)
Soil Fungus Poisoning and Closed-Mouth Pepper Poisoning: Drink human urine. (*Zhouhou Beiji Fang*)
Resolving Vegetable Poisons: Mix infant urine with milk, take two sheng. (*Haishang Fang*)
Promoting Labor and Expelling Placenta: One sheng of human urine, add one part each of Scallion and Ginger, boil two to three times, drink hot to expel placenta. (*Rihuazi Bencao*)
Hemorrhoid Swelling and Pain: Take hot child urine mixed with three fen of Alum. Take two to three times daily; effective. (*Jiuji Fang*)
