Treating Taiyang disease where the exterior syndrome has not subsided, yet purgation has been applied multiple times, resulting in diarrhea with fever (Xie Re Li), unceasing stool, epigastric fullness and hardness (Xin Xia Pi Ying), and unresolved exterior and interior conditions.

This condition necessarily arises from multiple purgations damaging the Middle Qi, leading to Interior Deficiency-Cold; thus, this formula is employed. (This scenario must correspond to cases caused by multiple purgations.)
