治疗风虚引起的抽搐，意识昏迷不醒，或者出现寒热交替的症状。（筋脉拘急收缩称为“瘛”，舒缓松弛称为“疭”，伸缩不止称为“瘛疭”，这是树木弯曲和伸直的形象比喻。肝气虚弱而风邪乘虚而入，侵入血脉则导致抽搐，如果在皮肤则表现为寒热，如果病邪传移至其所生的脏腑，则会导致神志昏乱、意识丧失。）
独活、羌活、防风、细辛、桂心、白薇、当归、川芎、半夏、人参、茯神、远志、石菖蒲（各五钱），甘草（炙用，二钱半）。每次服用一两，加入生姜、大枣煎服。
这是作用于手少阴心经和足厥阴肝经的药物。肝属风木，主司筋脉，所以抽搐是肝经受邪的表现。肝的特性喜疏散，急需食用辛味药物来发散它，羌活、独活、防风祛除风邪，细辛、桂心温通经脉，半夏消除痰浊，川芎、当归辛散风邪且温和血液，血液流通则风邪自散，用辛味发散，也就是用辛味来补益（木性喜欢条达舒畅，所以以疏散作为补益）；心是肝的子脏，肝将热邪移交给心则导致神志昏乱，所以用人参补益心气，石菖蒲开通心窍。茯神、远志安定心神，白薇咸寒退热并治疗四肢逆冷；使得风静火息，血液流通，神志守舍，那么抽搐自然停止。
治疗中风导致的手脚麻木不仁，日久不愈，经络中有湿痰和死血滞留，腿部和手臂间忽然有一两处疼痛。
川乌（炮制，去掉脐部和皮）、草乌（炮制，去掉皮）、胆南星（六两）、地龙（即蚯蚓，洗净，焙干）、乳香……
这是作用于足太阴脾经和足厥阴肝经的药物。吴鹤皋说：胆南星辛烈，用来燥化湿痰；川乌、草乌辛热，用来散除寒湿；蚯蚓生于湿土之中，想要它引导川乌、胆南星直达湿痰凝结之处，《易经》所谓同气相求（蚯蚓咸寒，清热利水）；风邪注入肢节，时间久了则血脉凝聚运行不畅，所以使用乳香、没药来消除瘀血（乳香活血，能祛风伸筋，没药……
(Zhu Danxi)
Treats convulsions (spasms and flaccidity) caused by wind deficiency, unconsciousness, or alternating chills and fever. (Spasms are called *chi* (瘛), flaccidity is called *zong* (疭), and continuous extension and flexion is called *chi zong* (瘛疭), which resembles the bending and straightening of wood. When Liver Qi is deficient and Wind pathogen takes advantage, entering the blood vessels causes spasms; if in the skin, it manifests as chills and fever; if the pathogen transfers to the organ it generates, it leads to mental confusion and loss of consciousness.)
Du Huo (Radix Angelicae Pubescentis), Qiang Huo (Rhizoma Notopterygii), Fang Feng (Radix Saposhnikoviae), Xi Xin (Herba Asari), Gui Xin (Cortex Cinnamomi), Bai Wei (Radix Cynanchi Atrati), Dang Gui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis), Xiong Duan (Rhizoma Chuanxiong), Ban Xia (Rhizoma Pinelliae), Ren Shen (Radix Ginseng), Fu Shen (Poria with Hostwood), Yuan Zhi (Radix Polygalae), Chang Pu (Rhizoma Acori Tatarinowii) (each 5 qian), Gan Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae, honey-fried, 2.5 qian). Take 1 liang per dose, decoct with Sheng Jiang (Rhizoma Zingiberis Recens) and Da Zao (Fructus Jujubae).
This prescription acts on the Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian and Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian. The Liver belongs to Wind-Wood and governs the sinews; thus, spasms are a manifestation of Liver pathogen. The Liver desires dispersion, so pungent foods/drugs should be eaten urgently to disperse it. Qiang Huo and Du Huo dispel Wind, Xi Xin and Gui Xin warm the meridians, Ban Xia eliminates phlegm, Xiong Duan and Dang Gui disperse Wind with pungency and gently warm the blood; when blood flows, Wind disperses. Using pungency to disperse is equivalent to using pungency to tonify (Wood likes free flow, so dispersion is considered tonification); the Heart is the child of the Liver; if Liver Heat transfers to the Heart, it causes mental confusion, so Ren Shen tonifies Heart Qi, and Chang Pu opens the Heart orifices. Fu Shen and Yuan Zhi calm the Spirit, Bai Wei clears heat with salty-cold properties and treats cold limbs; this makes Wind still and Fire subside, blood circulate, and Spirit reside, thereby stopping spasms naturally.
Treats hemiplegia causing numbness in hands and feet that persists for a long time, where damp-phlegm and dead blood stagnate in the collaterals, causing sudden pain in one or two spots in the legs and arms.

This prescription acts on the Foot Taiyin Spleen Meridian and Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian. Wu Hegao said: Dan Xing is pungent and fierce, used to dry damp-phlegm; Chuan Wu and Cao Wu are pungent and hot, used to scatter cold-damp; Di Long is born in damp earth, intended to guide Chuan Wu and Dan Xing directly to the site where damp-phlegm condenses, as stated in the *I Ching*: "like energies seek each other" (Di Long is salty-cold, clears heat and promotes urination); Wind pathogen pours into joints and limbs, and over time blood vessels coagulate and circulation stops, so Ru Xiang and Mo Yao are used to eliminate blood stasis (Ru Xiang invigorates blood, dispels Wind and extends sinews, Mo Yao...)
