〔洁〕咳无痰而有声，肺气伤而不清也。嗽无声而有痰，脾湿动而为痰也。若咳嗽有痰而有声者，因伤肺
气动于脾湿，故咳而兼嗽也。脾湿者，秋伤于湿，积于脾也。故《内经》曰∶秋伤于湿，冬必咳嗽。大抵素秋
之气，宜清而肃，若反动之，则气必上冲而为咳嗽，甚则动脾湿而为痰也。是知脾无留湿，虽伤肺气，亦不为
痰。若有痰而寒少热多，故咳嗽。嗽非专主乎肺病，以肺主皮毛而司于外，故风寒先能伤之也。《内经》曰∶五
脏六腑，皆能使人咳，非独肺也，各以其时主之而受病焉，非其时传而与之也，所病不等。寒燥湿风火皆能令
人咳，惟湿病痰饮入胃，留之而不行，上入于肺则为嗽。假令湿在心经，谓之热痰。湿在肝经，谓之风痰。湿
在肺经，谓之气痰。湿在肾经，谓之寒痰。所治不同，各宜随症而治之。若咳而无痰者，以辛甘温其肺。故咳
嗽者，治痰为先，治痰者下气为上，是以半夏、南星胜其痰，而咳嗽自安。枳壳、陈皮利其气，而痰自下。痰
而能食者，大承气汤微利之。痰而不能食者，浓朴汤治之。夏月嗽而发热者，谓之热嗽，小柴胡四两，入石膏
一两、知母五钱用之。冬时嗽而发寒者，谓之寒嗽，小青龙汤加杏仁用之。然此为大例，更宜随症随时加减，
量其虚实，此治法之大体也。
〔丹〕上半日嗽多，属胃中有火，用贝母、石膏降胃火。午后嗽多，属阴虚，必用四物汤加知母、炒黄柏
先降其火。黄昏嗽多，此火气浮于肺，不宜用凉药，五味子、五倍子敛而降之。
春嗽是春升之气，夏是火炎上最重，秋是湿热伤肺，冬是风寒外束。
治嗽药大概多用生姜，以其辛散也。咳逆非蛤粉、青黛、栝蒌、贝母不除。大概有痰者加痰药。用药发散
之后，必以半夏逐其痰，庶不再来。治嗽痰多用粟壳不必疑，但要先去病根，此乃收后药也。

【张从正】咳嗽无痰而有声音，是肺气受损而不清利。嗽无声而有痰，是脾湿扰动而生痰。如果咳嗽既有痰又有声音，是因为肺受损伤，气机扰动脾湿，所以咳兼有嗽。脾湿，是指秋季感受湿邪，积滞在脾脏。所以《内经》说：秋季伤于湿，冬季必定咳嗽。大抵初秋之气，应当清肃，如果反常，则气必上冲而引发咳嗽，严重时扰动脾湿而生痰。由此可知，脾中没有留滞的湿邪，即使伤了肺气，也不会生痰。如果有痰且寒少热多，所以咳嗽。嗽并不专属于肺病，因为肺主皮毛而司管外部，所以风寒首先能伤害它。《内经》说：五脏六腑都能使人咳嗽，不独是肺，各在其所主的时令受病，不是在其他时令传变给它的，所患病症各不相同。寒、燥、湿、风、火都能让人咳嗽，只有湿邪导致的痰饮进入胃中，停留不行，向上进入肺中就会成为嗽。假如湿在心经，称为热痰。湿在肝经，称为风痰。湿在肺经，称为气痰。湿在肾经，称为寒痰。治疗方法不同，各自应当随证治疗。如果咳而无痰，用辛甘温药补益肺气。所以治疗咳嗽，以治痰为先；治疗痰，以下气为上策。因此半夏、天南星能胜其痰，咳嗽自然安定。枳壳、陈皮能利其气，痰自然下行。痰多且能进食者，用小承气汤轻微通下。痰多而不能进食者，用浓朴汤治疗。夏季咳嗽且发热者，称为热嗽，用小柴胡汤四两，加入石膏一两、知母五钱服用。冬季咳嗽且发冷者，称为寒嗽，用小青龙汤加杏仁服用。然而这只是大致常规，更应当随症随时加减，衡量虚实，这是治法的大体原则。
【朱丹溪】上半日咳嗽多，属于胃中有火，用贝母、石膏降胃火。午后咳嗽多，属于阴虚，必须用四物汤加知母、炒黄柏先降其火。黄昏咳嗽多，这是火气浮于肺，不宜用凉药，用五味子、五倍子收敛而降火。
春季咳嗽是春升之气所致，夏季是火炎上最重，秋季是湿热伤肺，冬季是风寒外束。
治疗咳嗽的药物大概多用生姜，因为它辛散。咳逆不用蛤粉、青黛、栝蒌、贝母不能消除。大概有痰者加化痰药。用药发散之后，必须用半夏驱逐其痰，才不会再犯。治疗咳嗽痰多者用粟壳不必怀疑，但要先去病根，这是收涩后的药物。

[Zhang Congzheng] Cough without phlegm but with sound indicates damage to the Lung Qi and lack of clarity. Suo (coughing up phlegm) without sound but with phlegm indicates Spleen dampness stirring up phlegm. If coughing involves both phlegm and sound, it is due to Lung injury where Qi disturbance affects Spleen dampness, thus coughing accompanies suō. Spleen dampness refers to dampness injured in autumn accumulating in the Spleen. Therefore, *Neijing* states: "Injured by dampness in autumn, cough will surely occur in winter." Generally, early autumn Qi should be clear and肃 (descending/clearing); if abnormal, Qi must rush upward causing cough, and severely disturbing Spleen dampness to generate phlegm. Thus, if there is no retained dampness in the Spleen, even if Lung Qi is injured, phlegm will not form. If there is phlegm with less cold and more heat, cough occurs. Suo is not exclusively a Lung disease because the Lung governs skin and hair and controls the exterior, so wind-cold can injure it first. *Neijing* states: "The five Zang and six Fu organs can all cause cough, not just the Lung; each suffers disease according to its ruling season, not transmitted from other seasons, and the diseases vary." Cold, dryness, dampness, wind, and fire can all cause cough. Only when dampness-induced phlegm-fluid enters the Stomach, stays and does not move, and rises into the Lung does it become suō. If dampness is in the Heart channel, it is called Heat Phlegm. If in the Liver channel, Wind Phlegm. If in the Lung channel, Qi Phlegm. If in the Kidney channel, Cold Phlegm. Treatments differ, each should be treated according to symptoms. If cough without phlegm, use pungent-sweet-warm herbs to warm the Lung. Therefore, treating cough prioritizes treating phlegm; treating phlegm prioritizes descending Qi. Thus, Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma) and Nantxing (Arisaematis Rhizoma Praeparatum) overcome phlegm, and cough settles naturally. Zhike (Aurantii Fructus Immaturus) and Chenpi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) benefit Qi, and phlegm descends naturally. If there is much phlegm but the patient can eat, use Xiaochengqi Tang (Minor Order the Yellow Decoction) to mildly purge. If there is much phlegm but the patient cannot eat, use Nongpo Tang (Magnolia Bark Decoction). In summer, cough with fever is called Heat Cough, treated with Xiao Chaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) 4 liang, added with Shigao (Gypsum Fibrosum) 1 liang and Zhimu (Anemarrhenae Rhizoma) 5 qian. In winter, cough with chills is called Cold Cough, treated with Xiao Qinglong Tang (Minor Blue Dragon Decoction) added with Xingren (Armeniacae Semen Amarum). However, these are general rules; one must adjust according to symptoms and time, assessing deficiency and excess. This is the general principle of treatment.
[Zhu Danxi] Cough mostly in the first half of the day belongs to Fire in the Stomach, treat with Beimu (Fritillariae Bulbus) and Shigao (Gypsum Fibrosum) to descend Stomach Fire. Cough mostly in the afternoon belongs to Yin Deficiency, must use Siwu Tang (Four Substances Decoction) added with Zhimu (Anemarrhenae Rhizoma) and Chao Huangbai (Phellodendri Cortex Preparata) to descend Fire first. Cough mostly at dusk is due to Fire floating in the Lung, do not use cold herbs; use Wuweizi (Schisandrae Fructus) and Wubeizi (Gallae Chinensis) to astringe and descend.
Spring cough is due to Spring ascending Qi; Summer is when Fire flares upward most heavily; Autumn is Damp-Heat injuring the Lung; Winter is Wind-Cold binding the exterior.
Herbs for treating cough generally use Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) because of its pungent dispersing nature. Ke Ni (rebellious Qi/cough) cannot be removed without Gefen (Concha Meretricis et Cyclinae), Qingdai (Indigo Naturalis), Gualou (Trichosanthis Fructus), and Beimu (Fritillariae Bulbus). Generally, add phlegm-resolving herbs if there is phlegm. After using dispersing herbs, one must use Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma) to drive out phlegm, so it does not return. Using Suké (Cannis Fructus) for cough with much phlegm need not be doubted, but one must first remove the root of the disease; this is a post-treatment astringent herb.
*[Qianjin Fang]* For Shang Qi (Rebellious Qi) many cases recover after taking emetics, and some are cured by acupuncture and moxibustion; one should deeply comprehend this.
[Zhang Zhongjing] Cough with a floating pulse is primarily treated with Nongpo Mahuang Tang (Magnolia Bark and Ephedra Decoction).

Chop coarsely, put into Zeqi juice, boil to obtain 5 sheng, take 5 he warm, finish by night.
[Zhu Danxi] For cough due to wind-cold invasion, resolve phlegm and open interstices, use Erchen Tang (Two Aged Herbs Decoction) added with Mahuang (Ephedrae Herba), Xingren (Armeniacae Semen Amarum), Jiegeng (Platycodonis Radix).
*[Ju Fang]* San'ao Tang (Three Un-decocted Decoction) treats cough, wind-cold invasion, nasal congestion and heavy voice.
