生甘草、人参，每次服用一两重。只给了一帖药，患者出现腹部严重腹泻，眼睛无法视物，口不能言。我判断这是病势深重且药物缺乏反佐之过，于是仍然使用前面的药物，但将其热炒后给予患者，大概是借助火力作为向导。服用一帖后腹泻停止，服用四帖后精神恢复，服用十帖后疾病痊愈安宁。
蒋氏三十多岁，身形消瘦面色黑，六月里喜欢温暖厌恶寒冷，两手脉象沉而涩，重按似乎偏数。用三黄丸，以姜汤送服下，每次服用三十粒，服用二十帖后微微出汗而病安。（三黄丸恐怕是三补丸，由黄芩、黄连、黄柏组成。）
〔海〕妇人先患恶寒，手足冰冷，完全不发热，脉象每息八至，两胁轻微疼痛，治疗者便当作少阳病来治。阳气内伏于骨髓之中，阴气在外致使发寒，治疗应当不从内也不从外，而从中间治疗。适宜用小柴胡汤调理，加倍加入生姜、大枣。
Raw Licorice Root (Gancao, 甘草) and Ginseng (Renshen, 人参), each dose weighing one tael. Only one decoction was administered, resulting in severe abdominal diarrhea, inability to see, and inability to speak. I determined that the disease condition was deep-seated and the error lay in the lack of counteracting agents in the prescription. Therefore, I continued to use the previous herbs but stir-fried them until hot before administering them, likely utilizing the heat as a guiding force. After one dose, the diarrhea ceased; after four doses, mental spirit returned; after ten doses, the illness was cured and peace restored.
Jiang, aged over thirty, had a thin physique and dark complexion. In June, he preferred warmth and feared cold. The pulses in both hands were deep and choppy, and when pressed heavily, they seemed rapid. He was treated with Sanhuang Wan (Three Yellows Pill) using ginger decoction to guide the medicine downward. Each dose consisted of thirty pills. After twenty doses, slight sweating occurred, and he recovered. (Sanhuang Wan is likely Sansu Wan [Three Tonifying Pill], composed of Scutellariae Radix [Huangqin, 黄芩], Coptidis Rhizoma [Huanglian, 黄连], and Phellodendri Cortex [Huangbai, 黄柏].)
[Ha] A woman first suffered from aversion to cold, with cold hands and feet, and no fever at all. Her pulse beat eight times per respiration, and she had slight pain in both hypochondria. The treating physician diagnosed it as Shaoyang syndrome (Lesser Yang disorder). Yang Qi is internally concealed within the bone marrow, while Yin Qi is externalized, causing chills. Treatment should not target the interior or exterior directly, but rather treat from the middle. It is appropriate to regulate with Xiaochaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction), doubling the dosage of Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens (Shengjiang, 生姜) and Jujubae Fructus (Dazao, 大枣).
