[Decoction Theory] In treating dysentery, if the aim is to purge accumulation, using Jinshi Wan (Digestion-Enhancing Pill) from the *Guiju* (Imperial Bureau Formulary) is very stable. Although it purges accumulation, it can also treat dysentery, ensuring success without failure. After the accumulation is purged, immediately tonify with Sijunzi Tang (Four Gentlemen Decoction) added with Doukou (Amomi Fructus Rotundus) and Hezi (Terminaliae Chebulae Fructus).
