哮喘的治疗必须注重清淡饮食,治疗重点在于化痰,适宜采用催吐法。用药中应多用辛温发散之品,避免使用寒凉药物,并且需要经常配合解表散邪的方法,这是因为病机属于“寒包热”(外有风寒束表,内有郁热)。也有因体质虚弱而不适合催吐的情况。另一种治法是用二陈汤加入苍术、黄芩,煎成汤剂后送服小胃丹,根据患者虚实情况调整用量。
入方:治疗寒包热引起的喘息。
药材:半夏、枳壳(炒制)、桔梗、片芩(即黄芩,炒制)、紫苏、麻黄、杏仁、甘草。
用法:用水煎煮服用。天气寒冷时,加入桂枝。
治疗哮病的积滞方:
取鸡蛋一个,轻轻敲破,使蛋壳破损但内膜完好,浸泡在尿缸里三四天,晚上取出,煮熟后食用,效果显著。因为鸡蛋能去除风痰。
紫金丹:治疗哮病,必须在患病三年后才可使用。
用法:取精猪肉二十两(一说三十两),切成骰子大小的块状。用信石一两,挑选质地明亮纯净的研成极细粉末,拌在肉上使其均匀,分成六份,用纸筋和黄泥包裹,用火烘烤至泥干,然后用白炭火在无人处烧,直到青烟出尽为止,取出放在地上放置一夜以去除火毒。研细,用米汤浸湿蒸饼,制成如绿豆大小的丸药。饭前用茶汤送服,成人每次二十丸,儿童七八丸,根据大小和虚实酌情给予。
喘病,分为气虚、阴虚和有痰三种类型。凡是久患喘症的人,未发作时应以扶助正气为主,发作时则以攻逐邪气为主。
气虚导致短气且喘息严重,不可使用苦寒药物,因为体内火气旺盛,适宜用导痰汤加千缗汤。有痰也会导致短气和喘息。阴虚导致从小腹下部有热气上冲引起喘息者,适宜清降心火,滋补阴液。有火热上炎者,宜清降心火,清肃肺金;有痰者,以降痰下气为主。
上气喘促且烦躁的是肺胀,欲发展为风水证,适宜发汗则痊愈。有因风痰上逆导致喘息急促者,用劫药一二服即可停止。劫药之后,再根据痰或火进行针对性治疗。劫药用椒目研成极细末一二钱,用生汤调服以止喘,气虚者不用。另一方法:萝卜子蒸熟作为主药,皂角烧灰等分为末,用生姜汁和炼蜜制成丸药。
实性体质的人因服用黄芪过多而导致喘息者,用三拗汤来泻气。若出现喘息,须用阿胶。若是久病气虚而引发喘息,宜用阿胶、人参、五味子补益。若是新病气实而引发喘息,宜用桑白皮、苦葶苈泻实。
戴云说:有痰喘,有气急喘,有胃虚喘,有火炎上喘。痰喘的特点是喘息时伴有痰声;气急喘是呼吸急促;胃虚喘……(原文此处似有缺漏或断句问题,依文意推测为胃虚导致的喘息);火炎上喘是火气上炎导致的喘息。
都督患有此病,众医生按胃虚治疗,未愈,后来用导水丸利下五六次而安。

Asthma must be treated with a light diet, focusing primarily on phlegm, and emesis is appropriate. Medications should mostly use sweet and warm dispersing agents, avoiding cold medicines, and often require surface-dispersing methods, as this is "cold wrapping heat" (external cold constraining the exterior with internal heat). There are also cases of deficiency where emesis is contraindicated. Another method uses Erchen Tang (Two-Aged Decoction) added with Atractylodis Rhizoma (Cangzhu) and Scutellariae Radix (Huangqin), decocted as a soup to swallow Xiaowei Dan (Small Stomach Pill), adjusted according to deficiency or excess.
Formula: Treats asthma caused by cold wrapping heat.
Pinelliae Rhizoma (Banxia), Aurantii Fructus (Zhike, stir-fried), Platycodonis Radix (Jiegeng), Scutellariae Radix (Pianqin, stir-fried), Perillae Folium (Zisu), Ephedrae Herba (Mahuang), Armeniacae Semen (Xingren), Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma (Gancao).
Decoct in water and take orally. In cold weather, add Cinnamomi Ramulus (Guizhi).
Treatment for Asthma Accumulation Formula:
Take one chicken egg, crack it slightly so the shell is damaged but the membrane remains intact, soak it in a urine pit for three to four days, take it out at night, cook thoroughly, and eat it. This is effective because the egg can dispel wind-phlegm.
Zijin Dan (Purple Gold Pill): Treats asthma; can only be used after the disease has persisted for three years.
Take 20 taels of lean pork (or 30 taels), cut into dice-sized pieces. Take 1 tael of Realgar (Xinshi), select the purest and brightest portion, grind it into an extremely fine powder, mix evenly with the meat, divide into six portions, wrap each with paper筋 (paper fibers) and yellow clay, bake with fire until the clay is dry, then roast over white charcoal fire in an uninhabited area until all green smoke disappears. Remove and place on the ground overnight to eliminate fire toxicity. Grind finely, dip steamed leavened cake in water, and form pills the size of mung beans. Take before meals with tea water: adults take 20 pills, children take 7-8 pills, adjusted according to age and condition.
Wheezing disease involves Qi deficiency, Yin deficiency, and phlegm. For chronic wheezing, when not acute, focus on supporting healthy Qi; when acute, focus on attacking pathogenic factors.
Qi deficiency causing shortness of breath and severe wheezing should not be treated with bitter-cold medicines due to excessive fire Qi; instead, use Daotan Tang (Phlegm-Resolving Decoction) plus Qianmin Tang. Phlegm can also cause shortness of breath and wheezing. Yin deficiency causing wheezing from rising fire starting below the lower abdomen requires descending heart fire and tonifying Yin. With flaming fire, descend heart fire and clear Lung Metal; with phlegm, prioritize resolving phlegm and directing Qi downward.
Upper body wheezing with restlessness indicates Lung Distension (Fei Zhang), potentially developing into Wind-Water syndrome; sweating will cure it. For wheezing急促 (rapid) due to upward reversal of wind-phlegm, use Jie Yao (Snatching Medicine) for one or two doses to stop it. After using snatching medicine, treat based on phlegm or fire. Snatching medicine consists of Zhaomu (Semen Lepidii/Zhaomu seed) ground into an extremely fine powder, 1-2 qian, taken with raw water to stop wheezing; do not use for Qi deficiency. Another method: use steamed Raphani Semen (Luobanzi) as the chief ingredient, equal parts of Gleditsiae Sinensis Fructus Carbonized (Saojiao ash) ground into powder, mixed with Zingiberis Rhizoma Fresh Juice (Shengjiangzhi) and refined honey to form pills.
For robust individuals who developed wheezing from taking too much Astragali Radix (Huangqi), use San'ao Tang (Three Uninhibited Decoction) to drain Qi. If wheezing occurs, Ejiao (Donkey-hide Gelatin) is necessary. For chronic illness with Qi deficiency causing wheezing, tonify with Ejiao, Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma), and Wuweizi (Schisandrae Fructus). For new illness with Qi excess causing wheezing, drain with Mangkokovitis Cortex (Sangbaipi) and Descurainiae Semen seu Lepidii Semen (Kutingli).
Dai Yun stated: There is phlegm wheezing, Qi urgency wheezing, Stomach deficiency wheezing, and Fire flaming upward wheezing. Phlegm wheezing is characterized by wheezing accompanied by phlegm sounds; Qi urgency wheezing involves rapid breathing; Stomach deficiency wheezing... [text fragment]; Fire flaming upward wheezing is caused by fire rising.
The Governor General suffered from this condition. Various physicians treated it as Stomach deficiency without success. Later, he was cured after using Daoshui Wan (Water-Guiding Pill) to promote urination/diuresis five or six times.
Formulas:
Phlegm Wheezing Formula:
Arisaematis Rhizoma (Nanxing), Pinelliae Rhizoma (Banxia), Armeniacae Semen (Xingren), Trichosanthis Fructus (Gualouzi), Cyperi Rhizoma (Xiangfu), Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium (Chenpi, pith removed), Gleditsiae Sinensis Fructus Carbonized (Saojiao Tan), Raphani Semen (Luobanzi).
Grind into powder, bind with Schiedae Fermentum (Shenqu) paste. Take 60-70 pills per dose with ginger water.
Another Formula:
Raphani Semen (steamed, 0.5 liang), Gleditsiae Sinensis Fructus (0.5 liang), Haifen (Sea Powder/Sodium Borate?), Arisaematis Rhizoma (1 liang), Alumen (Baijian, 1.5 qian, soaked in ginger juice and dried).
Use Trichosanthis Semen (Gualouren), ginger, and honey to form pills. Hold in mouth to dissolve.
Snatching Wheezing Medicine:
Tongqing (Good Copper Green/Verdigris, ground fine), Guodian (Lead Oxide, small amount, stir-fried until color changes).
Grind into powder. Take half a qian per dose, mixed with vinegar, taken on an empty stomach.
[Appendix] The Lung possesses ascending clear Yang Qi, resides above the five Zang organs, connects Ying and Wei, harmonizes Yin and Yang, and regulates ascent and descent without excess or deficiency. Injury from Six Excesses (Liu Yin) and Seven Emotions (Qi Qing), overeating, physical exertion, disharmony of Zang Qi, and inability of respiratory breath to circulate freely lead to wheezing urgency. Also, those with simultaneous Spleen and Kidney deficiency and weak constitutions can develop wheezing. Improper care leading to interference by Wind, Cold, Summerheat, and Dampness pathogens causes Lung Qi distension and wheezing. Furthermore, both phlegm and Qi disorders can cause wheezing; treatment methods must investigate the source. If injured by pathogens, disperse them; if Qi stagnation, regulate it; if Spleen/Kidney deficiency, warm and regulate. Seek treatment according to categories. For these conditions, a slippery pulse with warm hands and feet indicates survival; a choppy pulse with cold limbs indicates death. Wind-Cold injury causes upper Qi urgency, inability to lie flat, sounds in the throat, or loss of voice; San'ao Tang, Huagai San, Jiubao Tang, or Shenmi Tang can be selected. For phlegm wheezing, use Simo Tang or Suzi Jiangqi Tang. For deficiency wheezing with faint pulse, blue-black complexion, cold limbs, and frequent urination, use Wuweizi Tang or Simo Tang from *Huoren Shu*. Treating cough and wheezing uses Wuweizi frequently, but there are Northern and Southern varieties. For generating fluids, stopping thirst, moistening lungs, benefiting kidneys, and treating labor-induced cough, use Northern Wuweizi. For Wind pathogen in the Lung, use Southern Wuweizi.
