【支氏(支法存)阐发苏方】七录五卷 已佚
刘敬叔说:有一位名叫支法存的僧人,原本是胡人,在广州长大,精通医术,因此变得非常富有。他身高八尺,容光焕发,光彩照人。他制作了上百种形象(雕像或画像),还有一块八尺长的沉香板,平时香气浓郁。太原人王琰担任广州刺史时,他的长子王邵之多次向支法存索要这两样东西,支法存没有给他。王琰便以支法存豪横放纵为由上告,最终将他杀害并没收了他的家产。(出自《异苑》)
孙思邈说:各种经方中,往往有关于“脚弱”病的论述,但古人很少患这种病。自从永嘉年间衣冠南渡以来,士大夫阶层中很多人遭受此病困扰。岭南和江东地区,有支法存、仰道人等人,他们一直关注经方,特别擅长治疗此类疾病。晋朝的名门望族,大多因此得到救治而保全性命。(出自《千金方》)
【阮氏(阮文叔)河南药方】(唐志作阮炳。)七录十六卷 已佚
《册府元龟》说:阮炳,字叔文,担任河南尹,专心研究医术,撰写了一部药方书。
按:文叔与叔文必有一误。葛洪在《肘后方》序中说:“阮河南等撰集暴卒备急方。”难道这本书之外还有其他的采录吗?
【谢氏(谢泰)黄素医方】(旧阙撰人名氏。今据新唐志订录。)七录二十五卷(旧唐志作十五卷。)已佚
按:葛洪《肘后方》序中提到有崔中书的黄素方,似乎与这本书不同。
【葛氏(葛洪)玉函方】(晋书葛洪传作金匮药方。)百卷 已佚
葛洪说:我见过戴霸、华佗所集的金匮绿囊,崔中书的黄素方,以及百家杂方,大约五百卷。甘胡、吕付、周始、甘唐、通阮河南等人,各自撰集了急救备急方,有的一百一十卷,有的九十四卷,有的八十五卷,有的四十六卷。世人都认为这些书精详完备,无可添加。但我深入研究后观察,发现其中很多内容不完备。各种急病尚未完全涵盖,而且混杂杂乱,没有条理系统,想要查找并按其治疗并不容易。对于突然发作的病症,都使用昂贵的药物,动辄几十种。如果不是富裕人家,且居住在京城的人,不能平时储备,也不能匆忙辨别。又有很多让人用针灸治病,但其灸法又不明确穴位和分寸,只是说说身体中孔穴、营卫的名称。如果不是老医生详细阅读过明堂流注偃侧图的人,怎么能明白呢?我所撰写的百卷书,名为《玉函方》,都是分别病名,按类别相继排列。其中九十三卷,都是单方且简便容易,在篱笆田间,回头看看就能找到药材。各种急病,无不具备。家里有了这个方子,就可以不用请医生。医生多承袭祖业,有名无实,只是培养虚名,以谋取财利。寒门退隐之士,无法使他们效力;被他们医治的人反而多会误人。不如自己掌握其中的要点,胜过去迎接医生。无知的医生,又不能在短时间内得到;得到了也不肯立即为人医治。这使得微小的腠理之疾,发展成膏肓般的深重祸患,甚至导致无法挽救。况且突发急病,远行借问,大多徒劳无功。(出自《抱朴子》)
《晋中兴书》说:葛洪,字稚川,丹阳句容人。幼年博览群书,近得万卷,自号抱朴子。善于养生之术,撰写了《经用救验方》三卷,名为《肘后方》。又撰写了《玉函方》一百卷,至今仍在流传使用。(出自《太平御览》)

【肘后方】(晋书葛洪传作肘后要急方。唐志作肘后救卒方。)隋志六卷(旧唐志作四卷。本朝现下书目作一卷。)已佚
自序说:我既然穷尽了坟典索隐等古籍,在著述之余,兼综术数,省察了仲景、元化、刘戴等人的秘要,金匮绿秩,黄素方等,将近千卷。担心它们混杂繁重,有所求而难以得到,所以我周游华夏九州之中,收集奇异之处,拾取遗逸,筛选并集结成书,使种类区分清楚,缓急简易。共为一百卷,名为《玉函》。然而不是有力之人不能全部抄写。我又看到周、甘、唐、阮各家,各自制作备急方,既不能穷尽所有病状,又多用珍贵药物,难道是贫家野店所能立刻办到的吗?又让人用针治病,如果不是深入研究医方、平时熟悉明堂流注的人,连身体中的荣卫所在都不知道,怎么能用针来治疗呢?这就像野鸭大雁互相攻击,牛羊搏斗占卜一样,没有什么区别。虽然有这些方子,仍不免造成残害身体的疾病。我现在采摘其中的要领,编写成《肘后救卒》三卷,大多使用容易得到的药物。如果不得已需要购买,也都是低价的草木金石,到处都有。再加上灸法,灸法只说明分寸,不指明孔穴名称。普通人看了,就能明白其用法。或许不出篱笆围墙之内,回头看看就能具备。如果能相信它,或许能避免横祸。世俗之人苦于贵远贱近、厚古薄今,恐怕看到这个方子,没有黄帝、仓公、扁鹊、俞跗那样的名声,就不能采用。怎么可以强求呢?
按:这本书名为《肘后》,是说它的方子简单节省,足以立刻辨别。卷帙也不多,可以挂在肘后,随身携带。隋志中有《扁鹊肘后方》一卷。《抱朴子》说:辟除蛇蝮,用干姜附子,带在肘后。意思是一样的。友人都梁伊芳甫(恬)也说:肘后,是指类似佩囊的东西,说是常在肘腋下。就像称剑为腰间物一样。《玉台新咏集》魏繁钦诗:“何以致叩叩,香囊系肘后。”《晋书·周访传》说:“今年杀诸贼奴,取金印如斗大系肘后。”《抱朴子·勤求篇》说:“尽其囊枕之中,肘腋之下,秘要之旨。”王子年《拾遗记》说:浮提国献神通善书二人,忽老忽少,隐形则出影,闻声则藏形。从肘间取出四寸金壶,盖子在腋下。肘是手肘抵靠的地方,所以叫肘后。又说肘下,又说肘间。《抱朴子·遐览篇》记载崔文子《肘后经》一卷,李先生口诀《肘后》二卷。其义可以类推。

自序说:太岁庚辰年,隐居者说:我身居幽岭,将近十年。虽然经常积德行善,但多是一时的举措。可以传给远方边裔的,莫过于撰述。看到葛氏的《肘后救卒》,确实足以申发我一隅的思考。人生最大的忧患,没有比疾病更紧急的了。有病不治,就像救火不用水一样。现在车马就在宫掖左右,药师容易寻找;郊郭之外,已经很难遇到。何况穷乡僻壤,远山绝浦,其间枉死夭折的怎么说得完呢?方术之书,滚动翻阅徒然烦扰,极其实用的很少。想要披阅查找,迷惑很多。《抱朴子》的这个体制,贵在深远的益处。然而尚有缺漏未尽,于是再次采集补充缺漏。共一百零一首,用朱笔书写甄别,命名为《肘后百一方》。对于杂病的单方治疗,大致周全了。应璩以前作《百一诗》,用来规劝心行。现在我撰写此书,大概是想要护卫辅佐我自己。而且佛经说:人用四大构成身体,一大(地水火风之一)就有一百一病。所以深深应该自省。上至道人,下达众庶,无不各自缮写,并探究概括它。我又另外撰写了《效验方》五卷,详细论述各种病证候,因药变通,但这都是大治之法,不是穷困居所所需的。如果是华轩鼎室(富贵之家),也应该修省。葛序说:可以施用于贫家野居。然而不止于此。现在的缙绅君子,如果常处于闲适安逸,才可以披检方书。或者在外邑任职,将要远行;或者值宿禁闱,早晚隔绝;或者急速戎阵,城门闸极其严阻。忽然遇到疾病仓促,只能拱手相看,哪里比得上探取囊笥中的方子,可以让庸俗竖子成为医生。所以备列证候,使其晓然不滞,一旦有条理,就不会有过错。寻查葛氏旧方,到现在已经二百多年,传播于海内,因而救治成功的,效果确实很多。我现在重新以此该要,或许也能流传千年,岂止于空自卫护我自己呢?旧方共有八十六首,检查其中有四蛇两犬,不需要特殊标题。喉舌之间,也不是异处。入冢御气,不足以专名。杂治一条,还是各种病。部类强行区分,反而成了失例。现在配合为七十九首,于本文详尽具备,完全没有删减。又增添二十二首,有的是因葛洪一事,增构成篇;有的是辅助葛洪所遗漏,按照大体重新撰写。具体如后录。详细自行探究。先前决定比诸病,又不从类遂具,又劳在伤寒前,霍乱置耳目后,阴易之事,乃出杂治中。兼题与篇名,不尽相符。卒急之时,难于寻检。现在也考定其铨次,希望历然易晓。其解散脚弱、虚劳渴痢、发背呕血,多是贵胜之疾。其伤寒中风,诊候最难分辨,则都应取之于脉,岂是凡庸能究?现在所载诸方,皆灼然可用,只要根据法施治,不要违逆。其痈疽金疮,形变甚多,如果不是其方,不容易根除。妇女之病、小儿之病,并难治,方法不少,也载其纲要。凡此诸方,皆是撮取其枢要,或是名医垂记,或是累世传良,或是博闻有验,或是自用得力。所以各题秘要之说,以避文繁。又用药有旧法,也不再假事事诠诏。现在通立定格,共为成准。凡服药不言先食者,都在食前。应食后者,各有说明。凡服汤,云三服再服,有需要视病源准候,或疏或数,足令势力相及。毒利药皆须空服,补泻其间,自可进粥。丸散日三者,当取旦中暮进之。四五服,则一旦之中,量时而分均也。丸下丸散,不云酒水饮者,本方如此,而别说用酒水饮,则是可通用三物服也。凡云分等,即皆是丸散,随病轻重,所需多少,无定铢两。三种五种,皆分均之分两。凡云丸散之若干分两。(是品诸药,宜多宜少之分两。)非必止于若干分两。假今日三服方寸匕,须瘥,止是三五两药耳。凡云末之,是捣筛如法。咀者,皆细切之。凡云汤煎取三升,分三服,皆绞去滓,而后酌量也。字,方中用鸟兽屎,作矢字。尿作溺字。牡鼠,亦作雄字。干作干字。凡云钱匕者,以大钱上全抄之。若半钱,则是一钱抄取一边尔。并用五铢钱也。方寸匕者,即用方一寸抄之可也。刀圭,准如两大豆。炮熬炙洗治诸药。凡用半夏,皆汤洗五六度去滑。附子、乌头炮,去皮。有生用者,随方言之。矾石,熬令汁尽。椒,皆出汗。麦门冬,皆去心。丸散用胶,皆炙。巴豆,皆去心皮,熬。有生用者,随而言之。杏人,去皮尖,熬。生用者言之。葶苈,皆熬。皂荚,去皮子。藜芦、枳壳、甘草,皆炙。大枣、支子,擘破。巴豆、桃杏人之类,皆别研捣如膏,乃和之。诸角皆屑之。麻黄,皆去节。凡汤中用芒硝、阿胶、粘糖,皆绞去滓,内汤中,更微煮令消。红雪、朴硝等,皆状此而入药也。用麻黄,即去节,先煮三五沸,搽去沫,后乃入余药。凡以上诸法,皆已具载,在我所撰本草上卷中。今之人有此肘后百一者,未必得见本草,是以复疏方中所用者载之。此事若非留心药术,不可尽知,则安得使之不僻缪也。案病虽千种,大略只有三条而已。一则腑脏经络,因邪生疾。二则四肢九窍,内外文媾。三则假为他物横来伤害。此三条者,今各以类而分别之,贵图仓卒之时,披寻简易故也。今以内疾为上卷,外发为中卷,他犯为下卷。具列之云。上卷三十五首,治内病。中卷二十五首,治外发病。下卷三十□首,治为物所苦病。
陈振孙说:《肘后百一方》三卷,晋葛洪撰。梁陶隐居增补。本名《肘后救卒方》,大多使用容易得到的药物。共八十六首。陶并七首,加二十二首,共为一百零一首。取佛书人有四大,一大辄有一百一病之义命名。
【杨氏(杨用道)附广肘后方】八卷 现存
自序略说:方剂流行于世者很多。大编广集,奇药群品,即使是名医贵胄,或许也不能兼通而完全具备。何况可以施用于平民百姓呢?于是行省得以获得干统年间刊刻的《肘后方》善本,就是葛洪所说的皆单行径易,约而已验,篱陌之间,顾眄皆药,家有此方,可不用医者也。这本书经过陶隐居增修,更加完善。后来又得到唐慎微《证类本草》,其所附方,皆洽见精取,切于救治,而卷帙尤为繁重。且方随药着,检用卒难。于是又摘录其方,分以类例,而附于肘后随证之下,目之曰《附广肘后方》。下监俾更加雠次,且为之序,而刊行之。方虽简要,而该病则众。药多易求,而论效则远。将使家自能医,人无夭横,以溥跻斯民于仁寿之域。以上广国家博施爱物之德。其为利岂小补哉。皇统四年十月戊子,儒林郎、汴京国子监博士杨用道谨序。
四库全书提要说:《肘后备急方》八卷,晋葛洪撰。洪字稚川,句容人。元帝为丞相时,辟为掾。以平贼功,赐爵关内侯。迁散骑常侍。自乞出为句漏令。后终于罗浮山,年八十一。事迹具《晋书》本传。是书初名《肘后卒救方》,梁陶宏景补其阙漏,得一百零一首,为《肘后百一方》。金杨用道又取唐慎微《证类本草》诸方,附于肘后随证之下,为《附广肘后方》。元世祖至元间,有邬某者,得其本于平乡郭氏,始刻而传之。段成己为之序,称葛陶二君,共成此编,而不及杨用道。此本为明嘉靖中,襄阳知府吕容所刊,始并列葛陶杨三序于卷首。书中凡杨氏所增,皆别题附方二字,列之于后,而葛陶二家之方,则不加分析,状无可辨别。案《隋书·经籍志》,葛洪《肘后方》六卷,梁二卷,亡。陶宏景《补阙肘后百一方》九卷,亡。《宋史·艺文志》,止有葛书,而无陶书,在隋已亡,不应元时复出。又陶书原目九卷,而此本合杨用道所附,只有八卷,篇帙多寡,亦不相合。疑此书本无百一方在内,特后人取宏景原序冠之耳。书凡分五十一类,有方无论。不用难得之药,简要易明。虽颇经后来增损,而大旨精切,犹未尽失其本意焉。
【范氏(范汪)阳东方】(案《千金方·太医习业》有云:“范东阳张苗靳邵等,诸部经方。”然则阳东,当作东阳。)隋志一百五卷录一卷。粱一百七十六卷亡。已佚
《晋书》说:范汪,字玄平,性情仁爱,精通医术,常以拯救救济为事。凡有疾病,不限贵贱,都为他治疗。十个能治好八九个。撰写方书五百余卷。又有一百零七卷,后人详细使用,多获其效。(出自《太平御览》)
《旧唐志》说:杂药方一百七十卷,范汪方,尹穆撰。

【宋武帝杂戎狄方】七录一卷 已佚
【羊氏(羊欣)中散杂汤丸散酒方】隋志一卷 已佚
[Discussion on Diseases by Wang (Shuhe)] Seven Records, six volumes. Lost.
[Compiled by Huangfu (Mi) based on various prescriptions] Sui Record, one volume. Lost.
[Zhi (Facun) expounding Su's prescriptions] Seven Records, five volumes. Lost.
Liu Jingshu said: There was a monk named Zhi Facun, originally of Hu origin, raised in Guangzhou, who was skilled in medicine and thus became extremely wealthy. He stood eight chi tall, with radiant and dazzling appearance. He created over a hundred images (statues or portraits) and possessed an eight-chi-long slab of agarwood that emitted a rich fragrance daily. When Wang Yan from Taiyuan served as the Prefect of Guangzhou, his eldest son, Wang Shaozhi, repeatedly requested these two items from Facun, but Facun refused. Wang Yan then accused Facun of being arrogant and unruly, leading to Facun's execution and the confiscation of his property. (From *Yi Yuan*)
Sun Simiao said: Various classic prescriptions often contain discussions on "weakness of the legs," yet this disease was rare among the ancients. Since the southward migration during the Yongjia era, many scholars and officials suffered from it. In the Lingnan and Jiangdong regions, individuals such as Zhi Facun and Dao Ren Yang paid attention to classic prescriptions and were particularly adept at treating this condition. Many prominent families of the Jin Dynasty were saved through their treatments. (From *Qianjin Fang*)
[Ruan (Wenshu) Henan Prescriptions] (Tang Record refers to him as Ruan Bing.) Seven Records, sixteen volumes. Lost.
*Cefu Yuangui* states: Ruan Bing, courtesy name Shuwen, served as the Prefect of Henan. He devoted himself to medical arts and compiled a book of prescriptions.
Note: Between Wenshu and Shuwen, one must be an error. In the preface to Ge Hong's *Zhouhou Beiji Fang*, it is stated: "Ruan Henan and others compiled emergency prescriptions for sudden death." Could there be other compilations besides this book?
[Xie (Tai) Huangsu Medical Prescriptions] (The author's name was missing in old records; corrected here based on the New Tang Record.) Seven Records, twenty-five volumes (Old Tang Record says fifteen volumes). Lost.
Note: In the preface to Ge Hong's *Zhouhou Beiji Fang*, there is mention of Cui Zhongshu's Huangsu prescription, which seems different from this book.
[Ge (Hong) Yuxian Fang] (Biography of Ge Hong in the Book of Jin refers to it as *Jinkui Yao Fang*.) One hundred volumes. Lost.
Ge Hong said: I have seen the *Jinkui Lünnang* collected by Dai Ba and Hua Tuo, Cui Zhongshu's Huangsu prescription, and miscellaneous prescriptions from a hundred schools, totaling about five hundred volumes. Gan Hu, Lv Fu, Zhou Shi, Gan Tang, Tong Ruan Henan, etc., each compiled emergency prescriptions for sudden illness, some with one hundred ten volumes, some ninety-four, some eighty-five, some forty-six. The world considered them exquisite and complete, adding nothing necessary. However, upon my thorough study, I found much lacking. Various acute diseases were not fully covered, and the content was mixed and disorganized without clear structure, making it difficult to find and treat promptly. For sudden conditions, expensive herbs were used, often dozens of types. Unless one belonged to a wealthy family residing in the capital, one could not stockpile them nor identify them quickly. Moreover, many prescriptions relied on acupuncture, but the moxibustion methods lacked precise location and measurement, merely mentioning names of acupoints and Ying-Wei circulation. Without prior study of the Mingtang Liuzhu Yanci Tu by experienced physicians, how could one understand? My compiled hundred-volume work, titled *Yuxian Fang*, categorizes diseases and arranges them sequentially. Ninety-three volumes consist of single, simple, and effective prescriptions where herbs can be found within sight between fences and paths. It covers all acute diseases comprehensively. With this prescription at home, one need not consult a doctor. Many doctors inherit their profession nominally without substance, cultivating false reputations for profit. They are inaccessible to humble scholars and often cause harm. It is better to master key prescriptions oneself than to seek a doctor. Ignorant doctors are hard to find even when needed, and those found may refuse treatment, allowing minor ailments to become fatal. Traveling far to borrow advice is often futile. (From *Baopuzi*)
*Jin Zhongxing Shu* states: Ge Hong, courtesy name Zhichuan, was from Jurong, Danyang. He read extensively in his youth, accumulating nearly ten thousand books, and styled himself Baopuzi. He was skilled in longevity practices, authored *Jingyong Jiuyian Fang* in three volumes, titled *Zhouhou Fang*, and also compiled *Yuxian Fang* in one hundred volumes, which remains in use today. (From *Taiping Yulan*)
[Yuxian Jian Fang] Sui Record, five volumes. Lost.
[Zhouhou Fang] (Biography of Ge Hong in the Book of Jin calls it *Zhouhou Yaoji Fang*. Tang Record calls it *Zhouhou Jiuzu Fang*.) Sui Record, six volumes (Old Tang Record says four volumes. Current Song catalog says one volume). Lost.
Preface: Having exhausted ancient texts like Fensuo, and in my leisure from writing, while integrating various arts, I reviewed the secret essentials of Zhang Zhongjing, Yuanhua, Liu Dai, *Jinkui Lüzi*, and Huangsu prescriptions, nearing a thousand volumes. Worried by their complexity and difficulty in access, I traveled throughout China, collecting rare items and compiling them into categories for ease of use in emergencies. Comprising one hundred volumes, it was named *Yuxian*. However, only the powerful could copy it all. Seeing that Zhou, Gan, Tang, and Ruan's emergency prescriptions still failed to cover all conditions and relied on expensive drugs unaffordable to commoners, and noting that acupuncture required knowledge of acupoints and meridians unknown to laypeople, I realized that having prescriptions alone did not prevent harm. Thus, I extracted the essentials into three volumes of *Zhouhou Jiuzu*, using readily available herbs. If purchase was necessary, they were cheap herbs and minerals found everywhere. Moxibustion instructions focused on measurements rather than acupoint names, making them accessible to ordinary people. Found within reach, belief in them could prevent disaster. People tend to value distant things over nearby ones and ancient over modern, fearing this prescription lacks the prestige of Huangdi, Cang Gong, Bian Que, or Yu Fu. Yet, it is named *Zhouhou* because its prescriptions are concise, easy to verify, and portable enough to hang on one's elbow for travel. The Sui Record mentions *Bianque Zhouhou Fang*. *Baopuzi* mentions carrying dried ginger and prepared aconite on the elbow to repel snakes. Friend Du Liang Yifang (Tian) explained that "Zhouhou" refers to items kept near the armpit/elbow, similar to swords worn at the waist. Wei Qin's poem mentions a sachet tied to the elbow. Zhou Fang's biography mentions tying a large gold seal to the elbow after victory. *Baopuzi* discusses secrets kept in pillows and elbows. Wang Zi Nian's *Shiyi Ji* describes floating figures emerging golden pots from elbows. *Baopuzi* lists *Cui Wenzi Zhouhou Jing* and *Li Xiansheng Koujue Zhouhou*.
[Ge's Single Prescriptions] *Yiwen Lue*, three volumes. Lost.
[Tao (Hongjing) Supplement to Zhouhou Hundred-One Prescriptions] New Tang Record titles it *Supplement to Zhouhou Jiuzu Beiji Fang*. Seven Records, nine volumes (New Tang Record says six volumes. *Shulu Tijie* says three volumes. Current Song catalog lists Ge's *Zhouhou Fang* three volumes by Tao Hongjing, and *Zhouhou Baifang* nine volumes). Lost.
Preface: In the Gengchen year, the Hermit stated: Dwelling in secluded mountains for nearly ten years, although I practiced virtue, lasting transmission lies in writing. Ge Hong's *Zhouhou Jiuzu* inspired me. Disease is life's greatest peril; untreated illness is like fighting fire without water. While pharmacists are accessible in cities, they are scarce in remote villages. Medical texts are often confusing. Ge Hong's method offers deep benefit but has omissions. I collected supplements, totaling one hundred and one prescriptions, marked in cinnabar, naming it *Zhouhou Baiyi Fang*. This covers miscellaneous diseases well. Ying Qu wrote *Baiyi Shi* to admonish conduct; I write this to protect myself. Buddhist scriptures state that one of the four elements causes one hundred and one diseases. Thus, everyone should copy and study this. I also wrote *Xiaoyan Fang* in five volumes for complex cases suitable for the wealthy. Ge's preface suggests it for the poor, but it applies to officials traveling or in isolation too. Old prescriptions are two hundred years old and effective. I reorganize them for clarity. Old prescriptions numbered eighty-six; I adjusted categories, removed redundancies, combined some, and added twenty-two new ones, totaling one hundred and one. I clarified ordering for emergencies. Conditions like leg weakness, consumption, thirst, dysentery, back sores, and vomiting blood were common among elites. Cold damage and wind strike require pulse diagnosis beyond commoners' skill. All listed prescriptions are reliable if followed correctly. Abscesses and wounds vary greatly and require specific treatments. Women's and children's diseases are difficult; I included general guidelines. These prescriptions are essential, from famous doctors or tested over generations. Dosage rules are standardized: take decoctions before meals unless specified otherwise; toxic purgatives on empty stomach; tonics with porridge. Pills taken thrice daily at dawn, noon, dusk. Four to five doses distributed evenly throughout the day. Powder measures: "Qianbi" uses a Wu Zhu coin; "Fangcunbi" is one square inch; "Daogui" equals two large soybeans. Processing methods: Pinellia washed five times; Aconite and Gleditsia processed; Alum boiled dry; Pepper dried; Ophiopogon heart removed; Gelatin roasted; Croton seed peeled and roasted; Apricot kernels peeled and roasted; Descurainia roasted; Gleditsia spine removed; Veratrum, Zhiqiao, Licorice roasted; Jujube and Gardenia split; Croton, Peach, Apricot kernels ground separately. Horns powdered. Ephedra stems removed. Mangxiao, Ejiao, Glucose dissolved in decoction. Red Snow and Puxiao added similarly. Ephedra boiled first to remove foam. These methods are detailed in my *Bencao Shangjuan*. Since readers may not have access to my Bencao, I list processing here to avoid errors. Diseases fall into three categories: internal organ/channel pathology, external limb/orifice issues, and injury from external objects. Internal diseases form Volume 1, external eruptions Volume 2, and external injuries Volume 3. Volume 1 has thirty-five prescriptions for internal diseases; Volume 2 has twenty-five for external manifestations; Volume 3 has thirty [missing character] prescriptions for external injuries.
Chen Zhen Sun said: *Zhouhou Baiyi Fang* in three volumes was written by Ge Hong of Jin and supplemented by Tao Hongjing of Liang. Originally titled *Zhouhou Jiuzu Fang*, it primarily used accessible herbs. It contained eighty-six prescriptions originally. Tao added seven and twenty-two new ones, totaling one hundred and one, named after the Buddhist concept of one hundred and one diseases per element.
[Yang (Yongdao) Extended Zhouhou Fang] Eight volumes. Extant.
Brief Preface: Many prescriptions exist in the world. Large collections with rare drugs are inaccessible even to nobles, let alone commoners. I obtained a good edition of *Zhouhou Fang* printed during the Kantong era, which aligns with Ge Hong's description of simplicity and efficacy. It was further refined by Tao Hongjing. Later, I consulted Tang Shenwei's *Zhenglei Bencao* for additional prescriptions relevant to symptoms, compiling them under *Extended Zhouhou Fang*. The Imperial Press edited and published it. Though concise, it covers many diseases with easily sourced herbs, aiming to make every household capable of basic care, preventing premature death, and promoting public health, thereby extending the Emperor's benevolence. Prefaced by Yang Yongdao, Confucian Scholar and Doctor of the Imperial Academy in Bianjing, on the Wu Zi day of the tenth month, the fourth year of Huangtong.
*Siku Quanshu* Summary: *Zhouhou Beiji Fang* in eight volumes, authored by Ge Hong of Jin. Hong, courtesy name Zhichuan, was from Jurong. Appointed by Emperor Yuan when he was Chancellor, rewarded for quelling rebels, promoted to Sanqi Changshi, later resigned to serve as Magistrate of Gouliu, dying at Mount Luofu at age eighty-one. His biography is in the *Book of Jin*. Originally titled *Zhouhou Zuji Fang*, Tao Hongjing of Liang supplemented it to one hundred and one prescriptions, naming it *Zhouhou Baiyi Fang*. Yang Yongdao of Jin added prescriptions from Tang Shenwei's *Zhenglei Bencao*, creating *Fu Guang Zhouhou Fang*. During the Zhiyuan era of Emperor Shizu of Yuan, a person named Wu obtained a copy from Guo of Pingxiang and had it printed. Duan Chengji wrote a preface praising Ge and Tao but omitting Yang. This edition was printed by Lv Rong, Prefect of Xiangyang, during the Jiajing era of Ming, including prefaces by Ge, Tao, and Yang. Yang's additions are marked "Attached Prescriptions." The original *Sui Shu* lists Ge's *Zhouhou Fang* (6 vols) and Tao's *Buque Zhouhou Baiyi Fang* (9 vols) as lost. *Song Shi Yiwenzhi* only lists Ge's book. It is unlikely Tao's book reappeared in Yuan. Also, Tao's original was 9 volumes, but this combined edition is 8 volumes. It is suspected that this edition never contained the full *Baiyi Fang*, and Tao's preface was attached later. The book is divided into fifty-one categories, containing prescriptions without extensive theory, avoiding rare drugs, and remaining concise. Despite later additions, the core intent remains intact.
[Fan (Wang) Yangdong Fang] (Note: *Qianjin Fang* mentions "Fan Dongyang, Zhang Miao, Jin Shao," suggesting "Yangdong" should be "Dongyang".) Sui Record, 105 volumes plus 1 volume of records. Liang, 176 volumes. Lost.
*Book of Jin* states: Fan Wang, courtesy name Xuanping, was benevolent and skilled in medicine, dedicating himself to healing regardless of status. He cured eight or nine out of ten patients. He compiled over five hundred volumes of prescriptions, plus another one hundred and seven volumes, which proved highly effective for later users. (From *Taiping Yulan*)
*Old Tang Record* states: Miscellaneous Drug Prescriptions, 170 volumes, Fan Wang's Prescriptions, compiled by Yin Mu.
[Chen (Yanzhi) Duanju Fang] Sui Record, twelve volumes. Lost.
[Linqiu Gong Lun] Sui Record, one volume. Lost.
[Yin (Zhongkan) Jingzhou Essential Prescriptions] Seven Records, one volume. Lost.
*Book of Jin* states: Yin Zhongkan, from Chen Commandery, was eloquent in pure discourse and skilled in literature, beloved by scholars. Xie Xuan appointed him as Chief Clerk and treated him kindly. Zhongkan's father suffered from chronic illness for years; Zhongkan did not change clothes for days, studied medicine intensely, wept over texts, and lost sight in one eye. (From *Taiping Yulan*)
[Yu (Fakai) Lunyi Beyu Fang] Sui Record, one volume. Lost.
*Shaoxing Prefecture Gazetteer* states: Yu Fakai favored Daoist and Buddhist pursuits, later fleeing to Shan to study medicine under Zhi Dun. He became proficient in medical arts. Once, while traveling, he stayed overnight at a host's home whose wife was in labor but had not delivered for days. Fakai said, "This is easy to treat." He slaughtered a fat sheep, ate several pieces, and performed acupuncture. The baby was born shortly after, wrapped in the sheepskin.
[Emperor Wu of Song Miscellaneous Rongdi Prescriptions] Seven Records, one volume. Lost.
