以镇摄阴火之浮越，以滋养上焦之元气。《内经》云：“热淫所胜，治以甘寒；以苦泻之。”以黄连之苦寒为君药，去除心烦、清除湿热；以甘草、生地黄之甘寒为臣药，泻火补气、滋生阴血；以当归补血不足，朱砂纳引浮留之火而安定神明。

To suppress the floating and overflowing of Yin Fire, and to nourish the Original Qi of the Upper Jiao. The Classic states: "When Heat is excessive, treat it with Sweet-Cold; purge it with Bitter." Use the Bitter-Cold of Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma) as the Sovereign herb to remove mental restlessness and damp-heat; use the Sweet-Cold of Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) and Shengdihuang (Rehmanniae Radix) as the Minister herbs to purge fire, tonify Qi, and generate Yin Blood; use Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) to supplement insufficient Blood, and Zhusha (Cinnabar) to anchor floating and lingering Fire to calm the Spirit.

Treatment for women suffering from muscle heat, restless heat, red eyes, red face, mental restlessness, thirst with desire to drink, continuous day and night. The pulse is large and surging but weak, and completely empty upon heavy pressure. The Inner Canon states: "Pulse deficiency indicates Blood deficiency; pulse excess indicates Blood excess." It also states: "Heat fever due to Blood deficiency presents symptoms similar to Baihu Tang syndrome, distinguished only by the pulse not being large and firm." If mistakenly administered Baihu Tang, death will ensue. This disease arises from hunger, fatigue, and overwork.
