Treating patients who vomit immediately after eating, this decoction is the primary treatment.
Dahuang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma) (4 liang) Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (2 liang)
Take the above two ingredients, add three sheng of water, and boil to obtain one sheng. Divide into two doses and take warm.
The song states: Vomiting follows shortly after eating. (This refers to vomiting immediately after eating.) The clash of two types of heat overwhelms the body's resistance. (The stomach originally has internal heat; when food enters again, the two heats clash, causing immediate expulsion without retention.) Four liang of Dahuang paired with two liang of Gancao; the method of treating upper disorders by purging from below is miraculous.
Wei notes: The Master stated that for those wishing to vomit, purgatives should not be used. It is also stated that for those who vomit immediately after eating, Dahuang Gancao Tang should be used to purge. These two statements seem contradictory. Why?
It is said: When the pathology is in the upper jiao and there is a desire to vomit, one should follow the natural tendency to induce emesis. If one forces it downward against the trend, it will cause confusion and chaos. However, if vomiting has already occurred but continues incessantly, this indicates a mechanism where qi rises but does not descend.
You Zaijing said: Clouds and mist rise from the earth, while rain and dew descend from heaven. If the earth cannot receive them, heaven cannot send them down. This shows that the qi mechanism of yin and yang in heaven and earth is identical.

Vomiting
Treating Wei Fan (Stomantic Reversal), characterized by vomiting and thirst with a desire to drink water, this decoction is the primary treatment.
Fuling (Poria) (8 liang) Zexie (Alismatis Rhizoma) (4 liang) Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) Guizhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus) (each 2 liang) Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma) (3 liang) Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) (4 liang)
Take the above six ingredients, add ten dou of water, and boil to obtain three sheng. Add Zexie, and boil again to obtain two and a half sheng. Take eight ge warm per dose, three times daily. *Waitai Mi Yao* records treating Xiao Ke (Wasting and Thirsting)...
The song states: Vomiting has not yet ceased, yet thirst intensifies. (This differs from thirst after vomiting which indicates recovery, and also differs from Zhu Ling San patterns where thirst precedes vomiting.)
Fuling...
Water.
Xu Zhongke said: The reason Puling (Polyporus) is removed from Wu Ling San in this formula is because in Wei Fan, the pathogenic water is expelled through vomiting; thus, there is no water qi stagnation in the middle jiao, leading to thirst. Adding Shengjiang and Gancao...
Treating patients who, after vomiting, feel thirsty, desire water, and drink greedily/excessively, this decoction is the primary treatment. It also treats mild wind pathogens, tight pulse, and headache.
Wen Ge (Arcae Concha) Shigao (Gypsum Fibrosum) (each 5 liang) Mahuang (Ephedrae Herba) Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) (each 3 liang) Xingren (Prunus Armeniaca Seed) (50 grains) Dazao (Jujubae Fructus) (12 pieces)
Take the above seven ingredients, add six sheng of water, and boil to obtain two sheng. Take one sheng warm per dose. Recovery occurs upon sweating.
The song states: The symptom of greedy drinking after vomiting requires careful analysis. Wen Ge and Shigao are each used in five liang quantities. Twelve pieces of Dazao and fifty grains of Xingren. Mahuang and Gancao are each three liang, as is Shengjiang.
Yuan Xi notes: Although the fluids are lost through vomiting, the heat pathogen does not leave with the fluids; therefore, the craving for drinking persists. This differs from "Si Shui" (desiring water). In the formula, Mahuang and Shigao are used together...
