(Ju Pi Zhu Ru Tang) Treats vomiting and hiccups. The formula contains Renshen (Ginseng Radix), Gancao (Licorice Root), Banxia (Pinellia Rhizoma), Chenpi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium), and Maidong (Ophiopogonis Radix). Add Chifuling (Poria with Red Core), along with Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger Rhizome) and Dazao (Jujube Fructus), and decoct. This formula originates from *Jin Gui Yao Lue* (Essential Prescriptions of the Golden Cabinet) and is a modification of the original prescription. (The formula in *Jin Gui Yao Lue* consists of Chenpi and Zhuru (Bambusa Textilis Caulis in Succo) each two sheng, Renshen one liang, Gancao five liang, Shengjiang half jin, and Dazao thirty pieces. It is named Ju Pi Zhu Ru Tang and treats yue ni (hiccups/belching), which is equivalent to e ni (hiccups). Later generations added Banxia, Maidong, Chifuling, and Pipaye (Loquat Leaf). Hiccups are caused by stomach fire rushing upward, assisted by liver-gallbladder fire, preventing lung metal qi from descending. Zhuru, Maidong, and Pipaye clear the lungs, harmonize the stomach, and direct qi downward; when lung metal is clear, liver wood naturally becomes balanced. Er Chen Tang (Two-Aged Decoction) directs phlegm downward; Chifuling drains heart fire; Shengjiang is the sacred medicine for treating vomiting; for chronic illness with deficiency and emaciation, Renshen, Gancao, and Dazao are used to support stomach qi.)
(Ding Xiang Shi Di Tang, recorded in *Ji Sheng Fang*) Contains Renshen and Shengjiang. Hiccups occur due to cold pathogen obstructing the middle and damaging healthy qi. (Dingxiang (Caryophylli Flos) and Shidi (Diospyri Fructus) each two qian, Renshen one qian, [text missing, usually implies Shengjiang].) The Xiang Di Tang from *Ji Sheng Fang* has only two ingredients, (also known as Ding Xiang Shi Di Tang, decocted with ginger. Ancient formulas used only Shidi, taking advantage of its bitter-warm property to direct qi downward; *Ji Sheng Fang* adds Dingxiang and Shengjiang to open depression and scatter phlegm; adding Renshen is to support stomach qi.) Alternatively, adding Zhuru and Juhong (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium Rubrum) is also effective. (Adding Zhuru and Juhong forms Ding Xiang Shi Di Zhu Ru Tang, with the same indications.)
(Ding Chuan Tang) Contains Baiguo (Ginkgo Seed) and Mahuang (Ephedrae Herba), Kuaodonghua (Adenophorae Radix et Rhizoma), Banxia, and Sangbaipi (Mori Cortex). Combined with Suzi (Perillae Fructus), Xingren (Armeniacae Semen Amarum), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix), and Gancao, it is used to treat asthma caused by lung cold and diaphragm heat. [Baiguo thirty pieces (stir-fried until yellow), Mahuang, Banxia (processed with ginger), and Kuaodonghua each three qian, Sangbaipi (honey-fried) and Suzi each two qian, Xingren and Huangqin each one-and-a-half qian, Gancao one qian, add ginger and decoct. Mahuang, Xingren, Sangbaipi, and Gancao disperse exterior cold and clear lung qi; Kuaodonghua is warm and moistening; Baiguo is astringent and consolidating, having the effect of calming wheezing...]
(Si Wu Tang) Composed of Dihuang (Rehmanniae Radix), Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), and Chuanxiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma). This formula is versatile for all blood-related diseases. [Danggui (washed with wine) and Shengdihuang (Raw Rehmanniae Radix) each three qian, Baishao (White Peony Root) two qian, Chuanxiong one-and-a-half qian. Danggui is pungent, bitter, sweet, and warm, entering the Heart and Spleen meridians; it generates blood and serves as the Sovereign herb; Shengdihuang is sweet and cold, entering the Heart and Kidney meridians; it nourishes blood and serves as the Minister herb; Shaoyao is sour and cold, entering the Liver and Spleen meridians; it astringes yin and serves as the Assistant herb; Chuanxiong is pungent and warm, circulating qi within the blood and serving as the Guide herb.] Ba Zhen Tang (Eight-Treasure Decoction) combined with Si Jun Zi Tang (Four-Gentlemen Decoction: Renshen, Baizhu, Fuling, Gancao) achieves unique merit in dual tonification of qi and blood. (Si Jun Zi Tang tonifies qi; Si Wu Tang tonifies blood.) Adding Huangqi (Astragali Radix) and Rougui (Cinnamomi Cortex) creates Shi Quan Da Bu Tang (Ten-Substance Great Tonifying Decoction), which aids yang and secures the exterior, while guiding fire back to its source. (Shi Quan Da Bu Tang is the premier among tonifying formulas.) Removing Dihuang, Huangqi, and Gancao from Shi Quan Da Bu Tang, and adding one hundred grains of Sumi (Millet) for decoction yields Wei Feng Tang (Stomach Wind Decoction). (Zhang Yuansu treated wind pathogens invading the intestines and stomach, causing unsolidified stool diarrhea and lockjaw.)
