This is a general formula for treating exterior syndromes of the Yang meridians. Wu Hegao stated: In ancient times, when treating wind-cold, one must differentiate according to the Six Meridians (Taiyang, Yangming, Shaoyang, Taiyin, Shaoyin, Jueyin) and medicate based on symptoms. However, in cases of sudden eye diseases accompanied by fever and headache, where the Six Meridian patterns are not distinct, treatment should generally focus on herbs that disperse wind and regulate qi. This formula, excluding Shaoyao and Gancao, consists mainly of herbs that disperse and unblock; thus, it can resolve symptoms of qi stagnation caused by colds. The inclusion of Shaoyao and Gancao is intended to prevent the excessive leakage of yin and yang qi through sweat. Wu Shou stated: This formula uses Shengma and Gegen, which can resolve epidemic febrile diseases of the Yangming meridian. If used for fever caused by Taiyang cold damage, it may draw the pathogenic factor into the stomach, leading to transmission and the manifestation of macules. These two viewpoints appear contradictory; it is up to the practitioner to examine carefully.
Poem says: Whose field produces Gancao among the Gegen? Where does the fragrance of Chuanxiong resemble Zisu? Before the Shaoyao fence, one looks far with Shengma; amidst falling Jupi, Mahuang, and Baizhi, the scene is lush.

For severe swelling of the upper eyelid with flaccidity, normal or increased appetite, or diarrhea with undigested food (Sunxie, 飧泄), or hematochezia, this formula is indicated.
Eyelid swelling accompanied by twitching of the orbicularis oculi muscle is attributed to Stomach Wind. Excessive eating and easy hunger follow the principle of "Xiaozhong" (Consumption Zhong, 消中) within Xiao Ke (Wasting-Thirst, 消渴). Sunxie refers to diarrhea where food is excreted immediately after ingestion; this occurs because wind resides in the intestines and stomach, acting like a fan stirring up dust. Hematochezia occurs because the Yangming meridian is rich in blood, and upon encountering wind, blood flow becomes erratic. Therefore, herbs such as Baizhi, Gegen, Chaihu, Gaben, Cangzhu, Manjingzi, and Caodoukou—a group of ascending and dispersing agents—are used to drive out Stomach Wind, allowing it to be resolved from the exterior. Huanglian, Shengma, Danggui, and Gancao employ bitter descent and sweet moderation to suppress the vigor of wind, preventing transformation into heat. The Classic states: When wind prevails excessively, pacify it with coolness, assist with bitter and sweet flavors. This is what is meant here. If these symptoms occur in chronic illness, it indicates Stomach deficiency with invasion of external wind; Ren Shen, Fu Ling, Bai Zhu, and Setaria Italica (Sumi, 粟米) should be used to strengthen the Spleen and remove dampness, while Chuanxiong, Danggui, Bai Shao, and Rou Gui should be used to nourish Blood and expel wind.
Poem says: Where does Stomach Wind come from? Cangzhu and Gegen have been consumed greatly. With slight Baizhi, Manjingzi, Chaihu, and Shengma, the disease would naturally not arise; hence, Huanglian and Caoguo are not taken.
