Lin Yi stated: Upon examination, the Dahuang Huanglian Xiexin Tang (Rhubarb and Coptis Draining-the-Heart Decoction) in various editions contains only two herbs. However, since the subsequent Fuzi Xiexin Tang (Aconite Draining-the-Heart Decoction) uses Dahuang (Rhubarb Root and Rhizome), Huanglian (Coptis Rhizome), Huangqin (Scutellaria Root), and Fuzi (Prepared Aconite Root), it is likely that the former formula also contained (Huangqin).

(This formula) is the previous decoction with Fuzi (Prepared Aconite Root) added, treating epigastric stuffiness accompanied by aversion to cold and sweating. While Xiexin Tang (Draining-the-Heart Decoction) attacks the stuffiness, Fuzi (Prepared Aconite Root) is added to secure yang qi.

It addresses excess pathogenic factors.

Mix the juice including the dregs with the Huanglian powder, blend evenly, dry, grind into a fine powder, and process with honey into pills the size of tung tree seeds.
