松峰审定五瘟丹 （一名凉水金丹，一名代天宣化丹。）专治时症瘟疫，发热头身腹痛，谵语
无汗，日久不愈。或发黄斑疹与痧，或二便五六日不行等症，并暑月一切热症。
又解痘疹毒。
甘草（制，甲己年为君） 黄芩（乙庚年为君） 黄柏（丙辛年为君） 栀子（丁壬年为君）
黄连（戊癸年为君） 香附（去净细毛） 苏叶（凤头者） 苍术（米泔浸） 陈皮（以上四味为臣）
明雄（另研细） 朱砂（另研细）
制甘草法∶立冬日，取大青竹竿，一头截去节，一头留节，纳生甘草末于内，蜡封紧口，浸粪
坑中，头冬至取出，晒干听用。
前甘草等五味，当以某年为君者，多臣数之半。如甘草用二两，则香附等四味止用一两也。
雄朱又减臣数之半，止用五钱矣。于冬至日，将甘草等九味，共为末，雄朱另研，以一半入甘草等
药末中为丸，留一半为衣，再用飞金为衣。大人服者，丸如梧子；小儿服者，丸如黍米。雪水生
蜜为丸，面东服五十丸。病轻日浅者，一服而愈，病深日久者，三四服而痊。忌腥辛辣油腻煎炒
一切浓味。其分两如君用一两，臣则五钱，多寡不论。总臣减君一半，雄朱又减臣一半也。
松峰曰∶此方见《万氏家传·瘟疫门》中，与《马氏瘟疫发源》书内所载互有异同。万氏有
苍、陈，而马则无之。万氏香附制炒，而马氏言俱不见火。万
氏用雪为丸，而马氏用大黄膏子。万氏不贴金，而马氏则贴金。万氏服用滚白水，而马氏则用凉
水。万氏甘草法制，而马氏不法制。其余俱各相同。愚意甘草制之则成人中黄，大能祛疫。苍术、
香附，吾用其生者，盖炒之则未免有火气。飞金重贴亦妙，以其镇静也。至于用大黄膏为丸，于
初感瘟疫邪尚在经者，大不相宜，当仍以雪水为丸，如恐不粘，酌加生蜜则易丸。初感瘟疫者，
用滚白水送，大热时冷水送，不大便时方用大黄水送。取二方而斟酌尽善，此为近之。

[Songfeng's Revised Five Plagues Pill] (Also known as Liangshui Jindan, also known as Daitian Xuanhua Dan.) Specifically treats seasonal diseases and plagues, with symptoms including fever, headache, body pain, abdominal pain, delirium, anhidrosis, and prolonged duration. It also treats jaundice, macules, rashes, and sha syndrome, or constipation and urinary retention lasting five to six days, as well as all heat syndromes in the summer heat season. It can also resolve the toxicity of smallpox and chickenpox.
Gancao (Processed; serves as the Sovereign herb in years ending in Jia and Ji) Huangqin (Sovereign in years ending in Yi and Geng) Huangbai (Sovereign in years ending in Bing and Xin) Zhizi (Sovereign in years ending in Ding and Ren) Huanglian (Sovereign in years ending in Wu and Gui) Xiangfu (cleaned of fine hairs) Ziyeh (preferably Fengtou variety) Cangzhu (soaked in rice wash water) Chenpi (the above four herbs serve as Ministers) Mingxionghuang (separately ground into fine powder) Zhusha (separately ground into fine powder)
Method for processing Gancao: On the day of Lidong (Start of Winter), take a large green bamboo pole, cut off the nodes at one end, leave the node at the other end, insert raw Gancao powder inside, seal the mouth tightly with wax, and soak it in a manure pit. Retrieve it on the day of Dongzhi (Winter Solstice), dry it, and set aside for use.
For the previous five herbs including Gancao, the Sovereign herb should be determined by the heavenly stem of the year, and its quantity should be double that of the Ministers. For example, if Gancao is used in the amount of two liang, then the four Minister herbs (Xiangfu, etc.) are used in the amount of one liang. The quantities of Xionghuang and Zhusha are reduced by half again relative to the Ministers, using only five qian. On the day of Dongzhi, grind the nine herbs including Gancao together into powder. Grind Xionghuang and Zhusha separately. Mix half of each into the Gancao powder mixture to form pills, and reserve the other half as the coating. Finally, coat with Feijin (gold leaf). Adults take pills the size of wutong seeds; children take pills the size of millet grains. Form pills using snow water and honey. Face east and take fifty pills. For mild and recent illnesses, one dose cures; for deep-seated and chronic illnesses, three to four doses cure. Avoid greasy, spicy, fried, and strong-flavored foods. If the Sovereign herb is one liang, the Ministers are five qian, regardless of specific amounts. Generally, Ministers are half the amount of the Sovereign, and Xionghuang/Zhusha are half the amount of the Ministers.
Liu Songfeng says: This formula appears in *Wanshi Jiacuan - Plague Section*, differing slightly from the record in *Mashi Yuanfa*. Wanshi includes Cangzhu and Chenpi, whereas Mashi does not. Wanshi uses stir-fried Xiangfu, while Mashi states no heating is involved. Wanshi uses snow water for pill formation, while Mashi uses Dahuang paste. Wanshi does not apply gold leaf, while Mashi does. Wanshi uses boiling water for administration, while Mashi uses cold water. Wanshi processes Gancao specially, while Mashi does not process it. The rest are identical. In my opinion, processed Gancao becomes Renzhonghuang, which greatly expels epidemic qi. I use raw Cangzhu and Xiangfu because stir-frying introduces fire qi. Applying Feijin is excellent due to its calming properties. Using Dahuang paste is unsuitable for early-stage plague where pathogenic factors are still in the meridians; snow water pills are preferred. If stickiness is a concern, add raw honey. For early plague, use boiling water; for high fever, use cold water; only use Dahuang water when constipated. Combining the merits of both formulas yields the best approach.
