小儿平日饮食无节，内伤停滞，外复为风寒所袭，症见发热憎寒，头痛恶食，嗳臭吐酸，便秘尿涩，腹热
膨胀。热盛者，古法主双解通圣汤，双解之法（如麻黄、朴硝等十七味，引用生姜、葱白）；无热者，古法主藿
香正气汤，和解之法（如藿香、苏叶等十味，引用生姜、红枣）；表邪即解之后，古法又主平胃散加山楂、神曲、
麦芽以消导之。
〔真按〕既系感冒，当然混身皆热，朝夕无间。若无热，则但谓之伤食，不得谓感冒又夹食。此症固宜双解，
惟立方以感冒为主，夹食之药，只兼一二味足矣。方用薄荷尖一钱，紫苏叶八分，广陈皮钱半，焦建曲一钱，连
翘壳八分，加生萝卜五片为引。
小儿脏腑素禀多热，今复为风寒所伤，风热相搏，则火邪愈盛。症见面赤唇焦，口鼻干燥，憎寒壮热，口渴
饮冷，心神烦躁，谵语狂妄，二便秘涩，古法亦主双解通圣汤（方见前）。如服药后汗出便利，病虽少减，热犹
不退，古法又主凉膈散合天水散，引用灯芯煎服。
〔真按〕感冒夹热，先受风寒而起，须知风寒一变，即化为热，一切温药，在所必禁。但用净连翘钱半，
淡竹叶钱半，霜桑叶钱半，枯黄芩五分，飞滑石三钱，生甘草五分，引用灯芯十五寸为剂。
小儿感冒，邪气未解，复为惊异所触，故见心惊胆怯，睡卧不安，身热烦躁，面色青赤之证，古法主疏解散
（如羌活、苏叶等十一味，生姜为引），次主凉惊丸（如龙胆草、防风、青黛、钩藤、黄连，引用生姜），煎服。
〔真按〕感冒兼受惊吓，入手即须清解，勿令由感起惊，为第一要义。但用连翘壳二钱，竹卷心二钱，天竺
黄钱半，小枳实五分，润玄参五分，制胆星三分，海浮石钱半，生甘草三分，引用淡海哲三钱、生荸荠三个为剂。
小儿平时饮食没有节制，导致体内食物停滞受伤，外部又受到风寒侵袭，症状表现为发热怕冷、头痛、厌恶进食、打嗝有腐臭味、呕吐酸水、便秘、小便涩痛、腹部发热且胀满。热象明显的，古法主张使用双解通圣汤，这是双解表里的方法（方中包含麻黄、朴硝等十七味药，煎服时引用生姜、葱白）；没有热象的，古法主张使用藿香正气汤，这是和解表里的方法（方中包含藿香、苏叶等十味药，煎服时引用生姜、红枣）；在表邪解除之后，古法又主张使用平胃散加山楂、神曲、麦芽来消食导滞。
〔陈守真按语〕既然属于感冒，当然应该全身发热，昼夜不停。如果没有发热，那就只能称为伤食，不能称为感冒夹食。这种病症固然适合双解，但组方应以治疗感冒为主，治疗夹食的药材只需兼用一两味即可。方子用薄荷尖一钱，紫苏叶八分，广陈皮一钱半，焦建曲一钱，连翘壳八分，加生萝卜五片作为引经药。
小儿脏腑先天禀赋多热，如今又受到风寒损伤，风邪与热邪相互搏结，导致火邪更加旺盛。症状表现为面红唇干裂、口鼻干燥、怕冷高热、口渴想喝冷水、心神烦躁、胡言乱语甚至狂妄、大小便不通畅，古法也主张使用双解通圣汤（方剂见前文）。如果服药后出汗且二便通畅，病情虽然稍减，但热势仍然不退，古法又主张使用凉膈散合天水散，引用灯芯草煎服。
〔陈守真按语〕感冒夹热，是由先受风寒引起的，须知风寒一旦转化，就会化为热邪，一切温性药物都在禁忌之列。只需用净连翘一钱半，淡竹叶一钱半，霜桑叶一钱半，枯黄芩五分，飞滑石三钱，生甘草五分，引用灯芯草十五寸作为药剂。
小儿感冒，邪气尚未解除，又受到惊吓刺激，所以出现心惊胆怯、睡卧不安、身体发热烦躁、面色青赤等症状，古法主张使用疏解散（如羌活、苏叶等十一味药，以生姜为引），其次主张使用凉惊丸（如龙胆草、防风、青黛、钩藤、黄连，以生姜为引），煎服。
〔陈守真按语〕感冒兼受惊吓，入手治疗就必须清解，防止因感冒引发惊厥，这是第一要义。只需用连翘壳二钱，竹卷心二钱，天竺黄一钱半，小枳实五分，润玄参五分，制胆星三分，海浮石一钱半，生甘草三分，引用淡海哲三钱、生荸荠三个作为药剂。
Children who have irregular dietary habits in daily life suffer from internal food stagnation and injury, while simultaneously being attacked by external wind-cold pathogens. The symptoms manifest as fever with aversion to cold, headache, anorexia, belching with a foul odor, vomiting of sour fluid, constipation, dysuria, abdominal heat, and distension. For cases with prominent heat signs, the ancient method advocates using Shuangjie Tongsheng Tang (Double-Resolution Tongsheng Decoction), which employs a double-resolution strategy (containing seventeen herbs such as Ephedrae Herba (Mahuang, 麻黄) and Natrii Sulfas (Piaoxiao, 朴硝), with Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens (Shengjiang, 生姜) and Allii Fistulosi Bulbus (Congbai, 葱白) as guides). For cases without heat signs, the ancient method advocates using Huoxiang Zhengqi Tang (Agastache Decoction for Rectifying the Qi), employing a harmonizing strategy (containing ten herbs such as Agastachis Herba (Huoxiang, 藿香) and Perillae Folium (Suye, 苏叶), with Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens (Shengjiang, 生姜) and Jujubae Fructus (Hongzao, 红枣) as guides). After the exterior pathogen is resolved, the ancient method further advocates using Pingwei San (Calm the Stomach Powder) supplemented with Crataegi Fructus (Shanzha, 山楂), Medicated Leaven (Shenqu, 神曲), and Malto (Maiya, 麦芽) to promote digestion and resolve stagnation.
[Chen Shouzhen’s Note] Since it is a common cold, there should naturally be whole-body heat, uninterrupted day and night. If there is no heat, it should only be termed food injury, not common cold complicated by food stagnation. Although this condition is indeed suitable for double resolution, the prescription should primarily address the common cold, with only one or two herbs addressing the food stagnation being sufficient. The formula uses Mint Tip (Bohe Jian) 1 qian, Perilla Leaf (Zisu Ye) 8 fen, Tangerine Peel (Guang Chenpi) 1.5 qian, Charred Medicated Leaven (Jiao Jianqu) 1 qian, Forsythia Fruit (Lianqiao Qiao) 8 fen, with five slices of fresh Radish (Sheng Luobo) as a guide.
Children’s zang-fu organs are constitutionally prone to heat. Now, having been injured by wind-cold, wind and heat pathogens contend with each other, causing fire pathogens to become even more vigorous. Symptoms include flushed face and cracked lips, dryness of the mouth and nose, severe aversion to cold with high fever, thirst with desire for cold drinks, mental restlessness, delirium and mania, and difficulty in urination and defecation. The ancient method also advocates using Shuangjie Tongsheng Tang (Double-Resolution Tongsheng Decoction) (formula seen previously). If after taking the medicine sweating occurs and bowel/bladder functions normalize, and although the illness slightly subsides, the heat remains unreduced, the ancient method further advocates using Liangge San (Cool the Diaphragm Powder) combined with Tianshui San (Heavenly Water Powder), decocted with Spargani (Dengxincao, 灯芯) as a guide.
[Chen Shouzhen’s Note] Common cold complicated by heat originates from initial wind-cold invasion. It must be understood that once wind-cold transforms, it becomes heat; therefore, all warming herbs are strictly contraindicated. One should use only Clean Forsythia Fruit (Jing Lianqiao) 1.5 qian, Light Bamboo Leaf (Dan Zhuye) 1.5 qian, Frost-treated Mulberry Leaf (Shuang Sangye) 1.5 qian, Dried Scutellaria Root (Ku Huangqin) 5 fen, Calcined Talcum (Fei Huashi) 3 qian, Raw Licorice Root (Sheng Gancao) 5 fen, with fifteen cun of Spargani (Dengxincao, 灯芯) as the dosage form.
In children with common cold, if the pathogenic factor has not yet resolved and they are subsequently startled by fright, symptoms such as heart palpitations and timidity, restless sleep, body heat with irritability, and bluish-red complexion appear. The ancient method advocates using Shusan San (Disperse Exterior Powder) (containing eleven herbs such as Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix (Qianghuo, 羌活) and Perillae Folium (Suye, 苏叶), with Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens (Shengjiang, 生姜) as a guide), followed by Liangjing Wan (Cool Fright Pill) (containing Gentiana Root (Longdancao, 龙胆草), Saposhnikoviae Radix (Fangfeng, 防风), Indigo Naturalis (Qingdai, 青黛), Uncaria Ramulus cum Uncis (Gouteng, 钩藤), and Scutellaria Root (Huanglian, 黄连), with Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens (Shengjiang, 生姜) as a guide), to be decocted and taken orally.
[Chen Shouzhen’s Note] For common cold complicated by fright, immediate clearing and resolving are required at the onset to prevent the cold from triggering fright; this is the primary principle. One should use only Forsythia Fruit (Lianqiao Qiao) 2 qian, Bamboo Heart (Zhuanjuanxin, 竹卷心) 2 qian, Tibetan Amber (Tianzhuhuang, 天竺黄) 1.5 qian, Small Immature Bitter Orange (Xiao Zhishi, 小枳实) 5 fen, Moisten Rehmannia Root (Run Xuanshen, 润玄参) 5 fen, Processed Arisaema Cum Bile (Zhi Danning, 制胆星) 3 fen, Pumice Stone (Haifushi, 海浮石) 1.5 qian, Raw Licorice Root (Sheng Gancao) 3 fen, with three qian of Sea Cucumber (Dan Haizhe, 淡海哲) and three fresh Water Chestnuts (Sheng Biqi, 生荸荠) as guides.
