Similar to Fuzi (Prepared Aconiti Lateralis Radix). Hence the name. In fact, it does not belong to the category of Fuzi.
Its root resembles a small version of Caowutou (Aconiti Kusnezoffii Radix), about one cun in length. When dried,
it tastes bitter and pungent with a slight sweetness. Its nature is greatly warm. It has slight toxicity. It is purely Yang. It guides the medicinal action upward. It treats heart pain, blood bi (pain caused by impaired blood circulation), various cold qi caused by wind pathogens, and weakness and lack of strength in the feet.
Pain that stays fixed in one place.
(The original text here seems fragmented; context suggests treating pain caused by wind-phlegm blocking meridians, which remains fixed.)
Various conditions treated:
Can be used together with Danxing (Arisaematis Cum Bile), Quanxie (Scorpio), Jiangcan (Bombyx Batryticatus), Gouteng (Uncariae Ramulus cum Uncis), Tianzhuhuang (Calami Tinosporae Rhizoma), Baitanxiang (Santalum Album Lignum), and Niuhuang (Bovis Calculus). It treats pediatric acute jing-feng (acute convulsions in children), dizziness caused by wind-phlegm, headache, qi stagnation, and chest diaphragm discomfort.

[Discussion] Dongyuan (Li Dongyuan) stated that Baifuzi is purely Yang and guides medicinal actions upward. This aligns with Haicang's (Zhang Yuansu) theory of supplementing liver wind deficiency. Generally, diseases caused by wind involve

It is also known as Mao'er Yanjingcao (Cat's Eye Grass). Another name is Lüye Lühuacao (Green Leaf Green Flower Plant). Also named Wu Fengcao (Five Phoenix Grass). It is abundant in rivers, lakes, plains, marshes, and flat lands. Its soft stems resemble Machixian (Portulacae Herba).
Leaves like Muxu (Medicago sativa). Round and yellow-green, resembling cat eyes. Five leaves at the stem tip. Five small branches emerge from the center. Each branch bears tiny flowers, greenish-blue. Small leaves support them. Breaking the stem exudes a white, sticky juice. The root is white and hard like bone. Some mistakenly identify this as the seedling of Daji (Euphorbiae Pekinensis Radix). (Binhu/Li Shizhen)
