A Divine Formula for Treating Tertian Ague (Malaria occurring every third day):
Take one live large turtle, including its shell. Pierce one hole on each of the left and right shoulders, and one hole near the tail. Grind nine qian of Ming Xionghuang (Realgar) into fine powder and sprinkle it into each hole. After two or three doses, the attack will cease.
Another Formula:
Take one aged Citrus medica (Xiangyuan), remove the top peel. For a large fruit, add three qian of transparent Xionghuang (Realgar); for a medium-sized one, two qian; for a small one, one qian. The Xionghuang must be ground finely and mixed into the flesh of the Xiangyuan to eat, which can interrupt the ague.
Jue Nüe Dan (Ague-Interrupting Pill):
Mylabris (Banmao), Castor Bean Kernel (Badou Ren), Cinnabar (Zhusha) (each 1 qian), Musk (Shexiang) (2 fen), Realgar (Xionghuang) (1.5 qian), Toad Venom (Chansu) (5 fen).
Pound two or three black dates with the above ingredients, form pills the size of mung beans, and apply them to the Baihui acupoint (Baihui, GV20) on the glabella. Remove after one week and throw them into flowing water.
Another Method:
Merely inhaling the aroma is sufficient; no need to decoct or ingest orally, and the ague can also be cured.
Dichroa Root (Changshan), Tsaoko Cardamom (Caoguo), Aconitum Carmichaelii Debx. (Chuanwu), Aconitum Carmichaelii Debx. (Caowu), Tangerine Peel (Chenpi), Licorice Root (Gancao) (each 1 qian).
Place the above ingredients in a silk bag and hold it near the nose to inhale; this will stop the ague.
Navel-Applied Ague-Interrupting Pills:
Black Pepper (Hujiao), Refined Realgar (Xiongjing).
Grind these two ingredients in equal parts into powder. Mix with rice paste to form pills the size of paulownia seeds. Coat externally with Cinnabar (Zhusha) powder. Place one pill in the umbilicus (navel) and secure externally with a plaster.
Daishen Wan (Ginseng-Replacement Pill for Treating All Types of Ague):
Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome (Baizhu) (one jin, steamed with soil), Ginger (Shengjiang) (one jin, juice extracted and used to mix with the dregs of Baizhu, then dried).
Grind into powder. Take one jin of black dates, boil until soft, remove skin and pits, and form pills.
Formula for Treating Ague: More effective for deficiency-cold type ague. Pregnant women are forbidden from applying this.
Cinnamon Bark (Guixin), Musk (Shexiang), Sichuan Peppercorn (Chuanjiao), Realgar (Xionghuang) (7 li).
Grind together into an extremely fine powder, place into the umbilicus, and cover externally with a plaster.
Formula for Treating Both Simple and Double Ague:
Take large Water Chestnuts (Biqi), soak them in good quality distilled liquor (Shaojiu) from spring until autumn. If ague attacks causing loss of appetite and bloating upon eating, consume two Water Chestnuts daily.
