突然昏倒，不省人事。但中风必然伴有口眼歪斜，抽搐痉挛的症状则有所不同。有因情志受激而中风的，脉象沉细，身体发冷，这是因为没有痰浊阻滞的缘故。
用姜汤调服苏合香丸灌入患者口中，待其苏醒后，再根据其寒热虚实的证候进行调理。病情较轻的，使用乌药顺气散。有人说，这是气机暴逆所致，气机恢复平静即可痊愈，即使不服药也能自愈。然而，如果是牙关紧闭、脉搏消失的闭证，也是无法救治的。
有因饮食停滞而导致厥逆的，必定感到胸中胀满闷塞。
有在夏季突然昏倒的，称为暑风，这类看似中风，实际上是中暑。
有因火邪致病的，内火与外火相合，炽热灼烧。刘守真认为是调养失当，导致肾水不能制约心肝二火。
有因痰邪致病的，火热之气激荡搏结，痰浊阻塞心窍。以上四种情况（食积、暑风、火邪、痰邪）均先用盐汤催吐，随后服用防风至宝汤。
药物组成：南星、防风、天麻、陈皮、当归、半夏（各一钱）、僵蚕（一钱二分）、白芍、川芎、甘草、青皮、栀仁、乌药、羌活、黄芩、黄连、麻黄、白芷、牛膝（各八分）。
用水两钟，加入生姜五片，煎煮后服用。忌食大蒜。
痫症发作时立即跌倒在地，双眼直视，口吐痰沫，发出的声音类似牲畜，神志不清，片刻之后即可苏醒。这是由于惊风和食积引起的。
其症状有五种，分别类似于五种牲畜，以对应五脏。病因或是七情郁结，或是感受六淫邪气，也有说是因为大惊，导致心神不守舍；还有的是幼小时受到惊吓，致使痰迷心窍所致。

Sudden collapse with loss of speech. However, wind-stroke (Zhong Feng) must present with facial deviation, whereas convulsions and spasms are distinct symptoms. There are cases caused by emotional shock, characterized by a deep pulse and cold body, due to the absence of phlegm turbidity.
Administer Suhe Xiang Wan (Styrax Pills) mixed in ginger decoction via gavage. Once conscious, regulate treatment according to patterns of cold, heat, deficiency, or excess. For mild cases, use Wuyao Shunqi San (Aucklandia and Cyperus Powder to Smooth Qi). Some argue that this results from sudden qi rebellion; once qi returns to normalcy, recovery occurs spontaneously, even without medication. However, if the mouth is tightly closed and the pulse is imperceptible (closed syndrome), it is incurable.
There are cases of jue (syncope/cold extremities) caused by food stagnation, invariably accompanied by chest fullness and oppression.
Cases of sudden collapse in summer are termed shu feng (summerwind); these resemble wind-stroke but are actually heatstroke.
There are cases caused by fire pathogens, where internal and external fire combine to scorch the body. Liu Shouzhen attributed this to improper lifestyle management, resulting in Kidney Water failing to control Heart and Liver Fire.
There are cases caused by phlegm, where fire qi agitates and struggles, causing phlegm to obstruct the heart orifices. The above four categories (food stagnation, summerwind, fire, phlegm) should first be treated with salt water emesis, followed by Fangfeng Zhibao Tang (Saposhnikovia and Precious Treasure Decoction).
Ingredients: Tianxing (Arisaema Cum Bile), Fangfeng (Saposhnikovia Root), Tianma (Gastrodia Rhizome), Chenpi (Citrus Reticulata Peel), Danggui (Angelica Sinensis Radix), Banxia (Pinelliae Tuber) (each 1 qian); Jiangcan (Bombyx Batryticatus) (1.2 qian); Baishao (White Peony Root), Chuanxiong (Ligusticum Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Gancao (Licorice Root), Qingpi (Green Citrus Peel), Zhiren (Gardenia Seed), Wuyao (Lindera Root), Qianghuo (Notopterygium Rhizoma), Huangqin (Scutellaria Root), Huanglian (Coptis Rhizome), Mahuang (Ephedra Herb), Baizhi (Angelica Dahurica Radix), Niuxi (Achyranthes Root) (each 0.8 qian).
Add five slices of fresh ginger to two zhong of water, decoct, and take orally. Avoid garlic.
Xian Zheng (Epilepsy) presents with immediate falling, eyes staring straight up, foaming at the mouth, sounds resembling animals, and unconsciousness. Recovery occurs after a short while. This condition arises from wind-phlegm and food accumulation.
The symptoms manifest in five types, corresponding to five animals and five zang organs. Etiology includes depression of the seven emotions, invasion of the six climatic factors, or severe fright causing the spirit to lose its residence. It may also result from fright received in early childhood, leading to phlegm confusing the heart orifices.
A deficient and wiry pulse indicates fright; floating and surging pulse indicates Yang Epilepsy; deep pulse indicates Yin Epilepsy; floating and scattered pulse indicates Wind Epilepsy.
Yushen Zhenxin Wan (Spirit-Nourishing Heart-Calming Pill, Secret Formula) treats the five types of epilepsy, as well as mania, fright, and phlegm confusing the heart orifices.
