如果人出现头痛、身体发热，伴有伤风咳嗽，或者心中烦闷不畅，导致郁结之气蕴藏在体内；或者气机不舒展，愤怒之气滞留于胁下；这种情况下绝对不可使用补药。处方如下：
当归（三钱）、白芍（五钱）、柴胡（一钱）、白术（二钱）、甘草（一钱）、丹皮（一钱）、薄荷（一钱）、半夏（二钱）、枳壳（一钱）。
用水煎煮后服用。
若头痛，加川芎一钱；若眼睛疼痛，加蒺藜一钱、甘菊花一钱；若鼻塞，加苏叶一钱；若喉咙痛，加桔梗二钱；若肩背疼痛，加枳壳一钱、羌活二钱；若两手疼痛，加姜黄或桂枝一钱；若两胁疼痛，加倍使用柴胡和白芍；若胸痛，加枳壳一钱；若腹痛且按压时疼痛加剧，加大黄二钱；若按压时不痛，加肉桂一钱。
治疗肝气的方剂：
当归（二钱）、白芍（钱二分，用酒炒制）、焦白术（钱五分）、茯苓（钱五分）、柴胡（八分，用醋炒制）、生甘草（五分）、丹皮（一钱）、黑山栀（一钱）、炮姜（三分）。
用水煎煮后服用。
愤怒损伤肝脏，导致肝气冲撞至胃口之间，使得肾气无法上行，肺气无法下达，从而形成这种病症。治疗应以开郁为主，处方如下：
白芍（三钱）、柴胡（一钱）、郁金（一钱）、荆芥（一钱）、苏子（一钱）、白芥子（一钱）、甘草（五分）、茯苓（一钱）、花粉（一钱）。
用水煎煮后服用。
这个方子的妙处在于看似平常，却蕴含深刻道理。大概是因为肝气郁结，必须用柴胡、白芍来疏解它。然而用量过多则必然阻碍气机且难以被接纳，所以方中以这两味药为君药，辅以郁金的寒凉发散、芥子的祛痰、天花粉的散结、甘草的调和脾胃、茯苓的祛湿。药性气味平和，温和易入，不争不战、相亲相爱，自然能到达病所而解除关格之症，不至于叩击关隘而遭遇坚壁清野般的抵抗。
另一个方子：
取阴阳水各一碗，加入少许盐，搅拌百余下直至起泡，饮用后即呕吐而痊愈。凡是上焦有痰，想吐却吐不出来的，饮用此水后立即吐出。
再一个方子：
用生半夏研成粉末，用水泛丸，大小如绿豆，放入鼻孔中，就会引起连续打喷嚏，用水喝下即可停止。通治中风失语，以及中恶、中鬼等病症都非常奇妙。
If a person experiences headache and fever, accompanied by wind-cold cough, or mental restlessness leading to the accumulation of stagnant Qi (stagnant vital energy) within the body; or if the flow of Qi is obstructed with anger retained in the hypochondrium; in such cases, tonifying medicines must absolutely not be used. The prescription is as follows:
Danggui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis, 3 qian), Baishao (Radix Paeoniae Alba, 5 qian), Chaihu (Radix Bupleuri, 1 qian), Baizhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae, 2 qian), Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae, 1 qian), Danpi (Cortex Moutan, 1 qian), Bohe (Herba Menthae, 1 qian), Banxia (Rhizoma Pinelliae, 2 qian), Zhike (Fructus Aurantii Immaturus, 1 qian).
Decoct in water and take orally.
For headache, add Chuanxiong (Rhizoma Chuanxiong, 1 qian); for eye pain, add Jili (Fructus Tribuli, 1 qian) and Ganjuhua (Flos Chrysanthemi Indici, 1 qian); for nasal congestion, add Ziye (Folium Perillae, 1 qian); for sore throat, add Jiegeng (Radix Platycodonis, 2 qian); for shoulder and back pain, add Zhike (Fructus Aurantii Immaturus, 1 qian) and Qianghuo (Rhizoma Notopterygii, 2 qian); for pain in both hands, add Jianghuang (Rhizoma Curcumae Longae) or Guizhi (Ramulus Cinnamomi, 1 qian); for pain in both hypochondria, double the dosage of Chaihu (Radix Bupleuri) and Baishao (Radix Paeoniae Alba); for chest pain, add Zhike (Fructus Aurantii Immaturus, 1 qian); for abdominal pain that worsens upon pressure, add Dahuang (Radix et Rhizoma Rhei, 2 qian); for abdominal pain that does not hurt upon pressure, add Rougui (Cortex Cinnamomi, 1 qian).
Prescription for treating Liver Qi stagnation:
Danggui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis, 2 qian), Baishao (Radix Paeoniae Alba, 0.2 qian, stir-fried with wine), Jiaobaizhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae, fried, 0.5 qian), Fuling (Poria, 0.5 qian), Chaihu (Radix Bupleuri, 0.8 fen, stir-fried with vinegar), Shenggancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae, raw, 0.5 fen), Danpi (Cortex Moutan, 1 qian), Heishanzhi (Fructus Gardeniae, charred, 1 qian), Paojiang (Rhizoma Zingiberis, processed, 0.3 fen).
Decoct in water and take orally.
Anger injures the Liver, causing Liver Qi to rush between the stomach and esophagus, preventing Kidney Qi from ascending and Lung Qi from descending, thereby forming this syndrome. Treatment should primarily focus on resolving depression (opening stagnation). The prescription is as follows:
Baishao (Radix Paeoniae Alba, 3 qian), Chaihu (Radix Bupleuri, 1 qian), Yujin (Rhizoma Curcumae, 1 qian), Jingjie (Herba Schizonepetae, 1 qian), Suzi (Fructus Perillae, 1 qian), Baijiezi (Semen Sinapis Albae, 1 qian), Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae, 0.5 fen), Fuling (Poria, 1 qian), Huafen (Radix Platycodonis, 1 qian).
Decoct in water and take orally.
The brilliance of this prescription lies in its apparent simplicity while containing profound principles. Generally, for Liver Qi stagnation, Chaihu (Radix Bupleuri) and Baishao (Radix Paeoniae Alba) must be used to soothe it. However, excessive use will inevitably obstruct acceptance. Therefore, these two herbs serve as the sovereign drugs, assisted by the cold dispersing properties of Yujin (Rhizoma Curcumae), phlegm-resolving properties of Jiezi (Semen Sinapis Albae), nodule-dispersing properties of Tianhuafen (Radix Platycodonis), middle-jiao harmonizing properties of Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae), and dampness-draining properties of Fuling (Poria). The flavors and properties are mild and gentle, easy to absorb, engaging in no conflict but rather mutual affinity, naturally reaching the destination to resolve obstruction without encountering rigid resistance.
Another prescription:
Take one bowl each of Yin-Yang Water (water boiled and unboiled mixed), add a pinch of salt, stir vigorously over a hundred times until bubbles form, drink it, induce vomiting, and recover. For any phlegm in the Upper Jiao (Upper Burner) where there is an urge to vomit but inability to do so, drinking this will immediately induce vomiting.
Yet another prescription:
Use raw Banxia (Rhizoma Pinelliae) ground into powder, made into pills with water the size of mung beans, insert into the nostrils to induce continuous sneezing, then drink water to stop it. This effectively treats aphasia due to wind-stroke, as well as sudden collapse from evil qi or ghost attack.
