《金匮》桂枝龙骨牡蛎汤（论见前，《短剧》云∶虚弱浮热汗出者除桂加白薇、附子各三分，故曰二加龙骨汤。）

《金匮》黄 建中汤（有论 于小建中汤内加黄 一两半，余根据上法。气短胸满者加生姜。腹满者去枣加茯苓
一两半，及疗肺虚损不足补气加半夏三两。）
乐令建中汤 治脏腑虚损，身体消瘦，潮热自汗，将成痨瘵。此药大能退虚热，生血气。 前胡 细辛（净）

（炙各一两） 半夏（汤洗七次切七钱半） 每服四钱，水一盏，姜四片，枣一枚，煎七分，不拘时热服。 按∶乐令
建中汤，治虚劳发热，以此并建其中之荣血。盖荣行十二经脉之中，为水谷之精气，故建其荣血，亦得以建中名之耳。
十四味建中汤 治荣卫失调，气血不足，积劳虚损，形体羸瘠，短气嗜卧，欲成痨瘵。 当归（酒浸焙） 白

治脏气素虚，以之两建其脾肾之阴阳。盖虚劳病多本脾肾，故引伸建中之法以治之，二方乃后人超出之方也。

十全大补散 治男子妇人诸虚不足，五劳七伤，不进饮食，久病虚损，时发潮热，气攻骨脊，拘急疼痛，夜梦
遗精，面色痿黄，脚膝无力，喘嗽中满，脾肾气弱，五心烦闷，并皆治之。 肉桂 甘草 芍药 黄 当归 川芎 人
参白术 茯苓 熟地黄（各等分） 上为粗末，每服二大钱，水一盏，生姜三片，枣二枚，煎至七分，不拘时
温服。 按∶此方合黄 建中汤、四君子汤、四物汤三方，共得十味，合天地之成数，名曰十全大补。以治气血俱衰，
阴阳并弱之候，诚足贵也。但肉桂之辛热，未可为君，审其肾虚腰腹痛，少用肉桂，若荣卫之虚，须少用桂枝调之，取
为佐使可也。
圣愈汤 治一切失血，或血虚烦渴，燥热睡卧不宁，或疮证脓水出多，五心烦热，作渴等证。 熟地黄 生地
黄当归（酒拌各一钱） 人参 黄 （炒） 川芎（各一钱） 上水煎服。按∶失血过多，久疮溃脓水不止，虽曰阴
虚，实未有不兼阳虚者，合用人参、黄 ，允为良法。凡阴虚证，大率宜仿此矣。
黑地黄丸 治阳盛阴衰，脾胃不足，房室虚损，形瘦无力，面多青黄而无常色，此补气益胃之剂也。 苍术（一
斤酒浸） 熟地黄（一斤） 五味子（半斤） 干姜（秋冬一两夏半两春七钱） 上为细末，枣肉丸，如梧子大。食前
米饮，或酒服百丸，治血虚久痔甚妙。《经》云∶肾苦燥，急食辛以润之。此药开腠理，生津液，通气，又五味子酸以
收
之，此虽阳盛而不燥热，乃是五脏虚损于内，故可益血收气，此药类象神品方也。 按∶此方以苍术为君，地黄为臣，
五味子为佐，干姜为使，治脾肾两藏之虚，而去脾湿除肾燥，即两擅其长，超超元箸，视后人之脾肾双补，药品混杂者，
相去岂不远耶。
还少丹 大补心肾脾胃一切虚损，神志俱耗，筋力顿衰，腰脚沉重，肢体倦怠，血气羸乏，小便混浊。 干山
药牛膝（酒浸） 远志（去心） 山茱萸（去核） 白茯苓（去皮） 五味子 巴戟（酒浸去心） 肉苁蓉（酒浸
一宿） 石菖蒲 楮实 杜仲（去粗皮姜汁酒拌同炒断丝） 舶茴香（各一两） 枸杞子 熟地黄（各二两）（此据《宝
鉴》所定考，杨氏原方山药、牛膝各一两半，茯苓、茱萸、楮实、杜仲、五味、巴戟、苁蓉、远志、茴香各一两，菖蒲、
地黄、枸杞各半两。）上为细末，炼蜜，同枣肉为丸，如桐子大。每服三十丸，温酒或盐汤下。日三服食前，五日觉有力，
十日精神爽，半月气壮，二十日目明，一月夜思饮食，冬月手足常暖，久服令人身体轻健，筋骨壮盛，悦泽难老，更看
体候加减。如热加山栀仁一两。心气不宁加麦门冬一两。少精神加五味子一两。阳弱加续断一两。常服固齿无瘴疟，妇
人服之容颜悦泽，暖子宫，去一切病。 按∶杨氏制此方，缓补心肾脾肺，正合《内经》劳者温之，损者温之之义。温
养和平，以俟虚羸之自复耳。虚劳才见端者宜之，若病势已成，此方又迂缓不切矣。大约中年无病，男女服之必效，方
名还少丹，意可知也。
人参养荣汤 治脾肺俱虚，发热恶寒，肢体瘦倦，食少作泻等证。若气血虚而变见诸证，勿论其病，勿论其脉，
但用此汤，其病悉退。 白芍药（一钱五分） 人参 陈皮 黄 （蜜炙） 桂心 当归 白术 甘草（炙各一钱） 熟
地黄 五味子（炒杵） 茯苓（各七分半） 远志（去心五分） 上姜枣水煎服。 按∶方中诸品，为心脾二藏之药，
于补肺殊不甚切。然养荣之法，正当补养心脾，以荣为水谷之精气，脾得以主之，及行至上焦，则肺卫心荣，各分气血
所主，固知养荣原不及于肺，方下所注肺虚误也。昌因养荣之义，关于虚劳最切，故辨之。
参术膏 治中风虚弱，诸药不应，或因用药失宜，耗伤元气，虚证蜂起，但用此药补其中气，诸证自愈。 人
参白术（各等分） 上水煎稠汤，化服之。 按∶方下所治，非为虚劳设也。而治虚劳尤在所必用，药品精贵，功效
敏速，莫逾于此。后人增苡仁、莲肉、黄 、茯苓、神曲、泽泻、甘草七味，吾不知于补元气之义何居？而鄙吝之
人见之，未有不欣然从事者矣。
人参散 治邪热客经络，痰嗽烦热，头目昏痛，盗汗倦怠，一切血热虑劳。 黄芩（半两） 人参 白术 茯
苓赤芍药 半夏曲 柴胡 甘草 当归 干葛（各一两） 每服三钱，水一盏，姜四片，枣二枚，煎七分，不拘时温
服。 按∶此方治邪热浅在经络，未深入脏腑，虽用柴胡、干葛之轻，全借参术之力，以达其邪。又恐邪入痰隧，用
茯苓、半夏，兼动其痰，合之当归、赤芍、黄芩，并治其血中之热，且止用三钱为剂。盖方成知约，庶几敢用柴胡、干
葛耳。此许叔微之方，一种深心，昌故发之。
保真汤 治劳证体虚骨蒸，服之清补。 当归 生地黄 熟地黄 黄 （蜜水炙） 人参 白术 甘草 白茯
苓（各五分） 天门冬（去心） 麦门冬（去心） 白芍药 黄柏（盐水炒） 知母 五味子 软柴胡 地骨皮 陈皮
（各一钱） 莲心（五分） 水二钟，姜三片，枣一枚，煎八分，食远服。 按，此方一十八味，十全大补方中已用其
九，独不用肉桂耳。然增益地黄，代川芎之上窜，尤为合宜。余用黄柏、知母、五味子，滋益肾水；二冬、地骨皮，清
补其肺；柴胡入肝清热；陈皮助脾行滞；全重天冬、麦冬、黄柏、知母、五味、地骨皮、柴胡，不获已借十全大
补以行之耳。其意中实不欲大补也，然亦一法，故录之。
三才封髓丹 降心火，益肾水，滋阴养血，润补不燥。 天门冬（去心） 熟地黄 人参（各半两） 黄柏（三
两） 砂仁（一两半） 甘草（七钱半炙） 上六味为末，面糊丸桐子大。每服五十丸，用苁蓉半两，切作片，酒一
盏，浸一宿，次日煎三四沸，去滓，空心食前送下。 按∶此于三才丸方内，加黄柏、砂仁、甘草，以黄柏入肾滋阴，
以砂仁入脾行滞，而以甘草少变天冬、黄柏之苦，俾合人参创建中气，以伸参两之权，殊非好为增益成方之比，故录用
之。
天真丸 治一切亡血过多，形槁肢羸，食饮不进，肠胃滑泄，津液枯竭。久服生血养气，暖胃驻颜。 精羊肉
（七斤去筋膜，脂皮批开，入下药末。） 肉苁蓉（十两） 当归（十二两洗去芦） 山药（湿者去皮十两） 天门冬
（去心焙干一斤） 上四味为末，安羊肉内裹缚，用无灰酒四瓶，煮令酒尽，再入水二升煮，候肉糜烂，再入黄 末（五
两）、人参末（三两）、白术末（二两），熟糯米饭，焙干作饼，将前后药末和丸桐子大。一日二次，服三百丸，温酒下。
如难丸，
用蒸饼五七枚，焙干，入臼中杵千下，丸之。 按∶此方可谓长于用补矣，人参、羊肉同功，而苁蓉、山药，为男子佳
珍，合之当归养荣，黄 益卫，天冬保肺，白术健脾，而其法制甚精，允为补方之首。
麦煎散 治少男室女，骨蒸黄瘦，口臭肌热，盗汗，妇人风血。攻疰四肢。 赤茯苓 当归 干漆 鳖甲（醋
炙） 常山 大黄（煨） 柴胡 白术 生地黄 石膏（各一两） 甘草（半两） 上为末，每服三钱，小麦五十粒，
水煎食后临卧服。若有虚汗，加麻黄根一两。 按∶此方治肝肺脾胃火盛，灼干荣血，乃致口臭肌热可验。故用润血行
瘀之法，以小麦煎之，引入胃中。盖胃之血干，热炽大肠必然枯燥，服此固可无疑，然更加人参助胃真气，庶可多服取
效也。
人参地骨皮散 治藏中积冷，荣中热，按之不足，举之有余，阴不足而阳有余也。 茯苓（半两） 知母 石
膏（各一两） 地骨皮 人参 柴胡 生地黄（各一两五钱） 上 咀，每服一两，生姜三片，枣一枚，水煎细细温服，
间服生精补虚地黄丸。 按∶藏中积冷，荣中热，冷热各偏，为害不一。此方但可治荣热耳，于藏冷无预也。方后云∶
间服生精补血地黄丸，岂一方中而当两涉耶？又岂以治荣热为最急，无暇分功于藏冷耶？如法用之，俟荣热稍清，兼治
藏冷，要亦用药之小权衡耳。
东垣补中益气汤 黄 （一钱五分） 人参 甘草（炙各一钱） 白术 当归身 柴胡 升麻 陈皮（各五分）
上咀，水煎。
东垣益胃升阳汤 前方加 炒曲（一钱五分） 生黄芩（泻盛暑之伏，庚金肺逆，每服少许，秋凉去之。） 上
咀，水煎。
丹溪大补丸 黄柏（炒褐色） 知母（酒浸炒各四两） 熟地黄（酒蒸） 败龟板（酥炙黄为末各六两） 上
为末，猪脊髓和，炼蜜丸如桐子大。每七十丸，空心淡盐汤送下。
补阴丸 黄柏（半斤盐酒炒） 知母（酒浸炒） 熟地黄（各三两） 败龟板（四两酒浸炒） 白芍（炒） 陈
皮牛膝（各二两） 琐阳 当归（各一两半） 虎骨（一两酒浸酥炙） 上为末，酒煮羊肉，丸如桐子大。每五六十
丸，盐汤下，冬加干姜半两。
严氏 附汤 治气虚阳弱，虚汗不止，肢体倦怠。 黄 （蜜炙） 附子（炮等分） 咀，每四钱，加生姜
煎。
《金匮要略》中的桂枝龙骨牡蛎汤（相关论述见前文，《短剧》记载：对于虚弱、浮热且汗出者，去除桂枝，加入白薇和附子各三分，因此称为二加龙骨汤。）
桂枝、芍药、生姜（各三两）、甘草（二两）、大枣（十二枚）、龙骨、牡蛎（各三两）。以上七味药，用水七升，煎煮至三升，分三次温服。
《金匮要略》中的天雄散（有相关论述）
天雄（三两，炮制）、白术（八两）、桂枝（六两）、龙骨（三两）。以上四味药，捣碎成散剂，用酒送服半钱匕，每日三次服用。若无效，可稍增加剂量。
《金匮要略》中的小建中汤（有相关论述）
桂枝（三两，去皮）、甘草（三两，炙）、大枣（十二枚）、芍药（六两）、生姜（二两）、胶饴（一升）。以上六味药，用水七升，煎煮至三升，去渣，加入胶饴，再用微火加热使其溶解。每次温服一升，每日三次。（呕吐患者不可使用建中汤，因为甜味会加重呕吐。《千金方》治疗男女因积冷气滞，或大病后身体未恢复常态，苦于四肢沉重，骨肉酸痛，呼吸短促，行动气喘乏力，胸满气急，腰背强痛，心中空虚悸动，咽干唇燥，面色无华，或饮食无味，胁肋腹胀，头重不能抬起，多卧少起，严重者经年累月，轻者百日，逐渐导致消瘦虚弱，五脏之气衰竭，则难以恢复正常，六脉均不足，虚寒乏气，小腹拘急，瘦弱百病丛生，名为黄[耆]建中汤。另外有人参二两）。
《金匮要略》中的黄[耆]建中汤（有相关论述，在小建中汤内加入黄[耆]一两半，其余按照上述方法。气短胸满者加生姜。腹满者去掉大枣，加入茯苓一两半，以及治疗肺虚损不足补气时加入半夏三两。）
乐令建中汤 治疗脏腑虚损，身体消瘦，潮热自汗，即将形成劳瘵。此药大能退除虚热，生养血气。
前胡、细辛（净选）、黄[耆]（蜜涂炙）、人参、桂心、桔皮（去白）、当归（洗去泥土）、白芍药、茯苓（去皮）、麦门冬（去心）、甘草（炙，各一两）、半夏（汤洗七次，切，七钱半）。每次服用四钱，水一盏，姜四片，枣一枚，煎至七分，不拘时候热服。按语：乐令建中汤，治疗虚劳发热，以此并建立其中的营血。盖营气运行于十二经脉之中，是水谷的精微之气，所以建立其营血，也得以建立中气而得名。
十四味建中汤 治疗营卫失调，气血不足，积劳虚损，形体瘦弱，短气嗜睡，欲成劳瘵。
当归（酒浸焙）、白芍药、白术、麦门冬（去心）、甘草（炙）、肉苁蓉（酒浸）、人参、川芎、肉桂、附子（炮）、黄[耆]、制半夏、熟地黄（酒蒸焙）、茯苓（各等分）。切碎，每次服用三钱，水一盏，姜三片，枣一枚，空腹温服。按语：十四味建中汤，治疗脏气素来虚弱，借此同时建立脾肾的阴阳。盖虚劳病多本源于脾肾，所以引申建中之法来治疗它，这两个方子是后人超越常规的方剂。
《金匮要略》中的八味肾气丸（有相关论述，方见前文）
《金匮要略》中的薯蓣丸（有相关论述）
薯蓣（三十分）、当归、桂枝、干地黄、神曲、豆黄卷（各十分）、甘草（二十八分）、川芎、麦门冬、芍药、白术、杏仁（各六分）、人参（七分）、柴胡、桔梗、茯苓（各五分）、阿胶（七分）、干姜（三分）、白蔹（二分）、防风（六分）、大枣（一百枚，制成膏）。以上二十一味药研成末，炼蜜和丸，如弹子大小。空腹酒送服一丸，一百丸为一剂。
《金匮要略》中的酸枣仁汤（有相关论述）
酸枣仁（二升）、甘草（一两）、知母（二两）、茯苓（二两）、川芎（二两）（《深师方》有生姜二两）。以上五味药，用水八升，先煮酸枣仁得六升，加入其他药物，煎取三升，分三次温服。
《金匮要略》中的大黄[䗪]虫丸（有相关论述）
大黄（十分，蒸）、黄芩（二两）、甘草（三两）、桃仁（一升）、杏仁（一升）、芍药（四两）、干地黄（十两）、干漆（一两）、虻虫（一升）、水蛭（百枚）、蛴螬（一升）、[䗪]虫（半升）。以上十二味药研成末，炼蜜和丸，如小豆大小。酒送服五丸，每日三次。
《金匮要略》附《千金翼方》中的炙甘草汤（有相关论述）
甘草（四两，炙）、桂枝、生姜（各三两）、麦门冬（半升）、麻仁（半升）、人参、阿胶（各二两）、大枣（三十枚）、生地黄（一斤）。以上九味药，用酒七升，水八升，先煮前八味，取三升，去渣，加入阿胶使其溶化，温服一升，每日三次。
《金匮要略》附《肘后备急方》中的獭肝散（有相关论述）
獭肝一具，炙干研末，用水送服方寸匕，每日三次。
十全大补散 治疗男子妇人各种虚损不足，五劳七伤，不进饮食，久病虚损，时常发作潮热，气攻骨脊，拘急疼痛，夜间梦遗精滑，面色萎黄，脚膝无力，喘嗽胸中胀满，脾肾气弱，五心烦闷，皆能治疗。
肉桂、甘草、芍药、黄[耆]、当归、川芎、人参、白术、茯苓、熟地黄（各等分）。以上为粗末，每次服用两大钱，水一盏，生姜三片，枣二枚，煎至七分，不拘时候温服。按语：此方合用了黄[耆]建中汤、四君子汤、四物汤三方，共得十味药，符合天地之成数，名为十全大补。用来治疗气血俱衰，阴阳并弱的证候，确实值得珍贵。但肉桂的辛热，不可作为主药，需审察肾虚腰腹痛，少量使用肉桂；若是营卫之虚，须少量用桂枝调和，取其作为佐使即可。
圣愈汤 治疗一切失血，或血虚烦渴，燥热睡卧不宁，或疮疡脓水流出过多，五心烦热，口渴等证。
熟地黄、生地黄、当归（酒拌，各一钱）、人参、黄[耆]（炒）、川芎（各一钱）。以上用水煎服。按语：失血过多，久疮溃烂脓水不止，虽说是阴虚，实际上没有不兼有阳虚的，合用人参、黄[耆]，确实是良法。凡是阴虚证，大体上宜仿效此法。
黑地黄丸 治疗阳盛阴衰，脾胃不足，房事虚损，形体瘦弱无力，面色青黄无常，这是补气益胃的药剂。
苍术（一斤，酒浸）、熟地黄（一斤）、五味子（半斤）、干姜（秋冬一两，夏半两，春七钱）。以上为细末，枣肉为丸，如梧桐子大小。食前米饮，或酒送服一百丸，治疗血虚久痔非常妙。《内经》说：肾苦燥，急食辛以润之。此药开腠理，生津液，通气，又五味子酸以收敛之，此虽阳盛但不燥热，乃是五脏虚损于内，所以可益血收气，此药类象神品方。按语：此方以苍术为君药，地黄为臣药，五味子为佐药，干姜为使药，治疗脾肾两脏之虚，而去脾湿除肾燥，即两擅其长，高超卓越，与后人脾肾双补、药品混杂者相比，相差岂不远耶。
还少丹 大补心肾脾胃一切虚损，神志俱耗，筋力顿衰，腰脚沉重，肢体倦怠，血气羸乏，小便混浊。
干山药、牛膝（酒浸）、远志（去心）、山茱萸（去核）、白茯苓（去皮）、五味子、巴戟天（酒浸去心）、肉苁蓉（酒浸一夜）、石菖蒲、楮实、杜仲（去粗皮，姜汁酒拌同炒断丝）、舶茴香（各一两）、枸杞子、熟地黄（各二两）（此据《宝鉴》所定考，杨氏原方山药、牛膝各一两半，茯苓、茱萸、楮实、杜仲、五味、巴戟、苁蓉、远志、茴香各一两，菖蒲、地黄、枸杞各半两）。以上为细末，炼蜜，同枣肉为丸，如桐子大小。每次服用三十丸，温酒或盐汤送下。每日三次，食前服用，五日觉有力，十日精神爽，半月气壮，二十日目明，一月夜思饮食，冬月手足常暖，久服令人身体轻健，筋骨壮盛，容颜悦泽难老，更看体质情况加减。如热加山栀仁一两。心气不宁加麦门冬一两。少精神加五味子一两。阳弱加续断一两。常服固齿无疟疾，妇人服之容颜悦泽，暖子宫，去一切病。按语：杨氏制作此方，缓补心肾脾肺，正合《内经》“劳者温之，损者温之”的意义。温养和平，以等待虚羸之自复罢了。虚劳才见端倪者适宜，若病势已成，此方又迂缓不切合了。大约中年无病，男女服之必效，方名还少丹，意思可知也。
人参养荣汤 治疗脾肺俱虚，发热恶寒，肢体瘦倦，食少作泻等证。若气血虚而变见诸证，不论其病，不论其脉，只用此汤，其病悉退。
白芍药（一钱五分）、人参、陈皮、黄[耆]（蜜炙）、桂心、当归、白术、甘草（炙，各一钱）、熟地黄、五味子（炒杵）、茯苓（各七分半）、远志（去心五分）。以上姜枣水煎服。按语：方中诸品，为心脾二脏之药，于补肺殊不甚切。然而养荣之法，正当补养心脾，以荣为水谷之精气，脾得以主之，及行至上焦，则肺卫心荣，各分气血所主，固知养荣原不及于肺，方下所注肺虚误也。昌因养荣之义，关于虚劳最切，故辨之。
参术膏 治疗中风虚弱，诸药不应，或因用药失宜，耗伤元气，虚证蜂起，只用此药补其中气，诸证自愈。
人参、白术（各等分）。以上用水煎稠汤，化服之。按语：方下所治，非为虚劳设也。而治虚劳尤在所必用，药品精贵，功效敏速，莫逾于此。后人增苡仁、莲肉、黄[耆]、茯苓、神曲、泽泻、甘草七味，吾不知于补元气之义何居？而鄙吝之人见之，未有不欣然从事者矣。
人参散 治疗邪热客经络，痰嗽烦热，头目昏痛，盗汗倦怠，一切血热虑劳。
黄芩（半两）、人参、白术、茯苓、赤芍药、半夏曲、柴胡、甘草、当归、干葛（各一两）。每次服用三钱，水一盏，姜四片，枣二枚，煎七分，不拘时候温服。按语：此方治邪热浅在经络，未深入脏腑，虽用柴胡、干葛之轻，全借参术之力，以达其邪。又恐邪入痰隧，用茯苓、半夏，兼动其痰，合之当归、赤芍、黄芩，并治其血中之热，且止用三钱为剂。盖方成知约，庶几敢用柴胡、干葛耳。此许叔微之方，一种深心，昌故发之。
保真汤 治疗劳证体虚骨蒸，服之清补。
当归、生地黄、熟地黄、黄[耆]（蜜水炙）、人参、白术、甘草、白茯苓（各五分）、天门冬（去心）、麦门冬（去心）、白芍药、黄柏（盐水炒）、知母、五味子、软柴胡、地骨皮、陈皮（各一钱）、莲心（五分）。水二钟，姜三片，枣一枚，煎八分，食远服。按语：此方一十八味，十全大补方中已用其九，独不用肉桂耳。然增益地黄，代川芎之上窜，尤为合宜。余用黄柏、知母、五味子，滋益肾水；二冬、地骨皮，清补其肺；柴胡入肝清热；陈皮助脾行滞；全重天冬、麦冬、黄柏、知母、五味、地骨皮、柴胡，不获已借十全大补以行之耳。其意中实不欲大补也，然亦一法，故录之。
三才封髓丹 降心火，益肾水，滋阴养血，润补不燥。
天门冬（去心）、熟地黄、人参（各半两）、黄柏（三两）、砂仁（一两半）、甘草（七钱半，炙）。以上六味为末，面糊丸桐子大。每次服用五十丸，用苁蓉半两，切作片，酒一盏，浸一夜，次日煎三四沸，去渣，空心食前送下。按语：此于三才丸方内，加黄柏、砂仁、甘草，以黄柏入肾滋阴，以砂仁入脾行滞，而以甘草少变天冬、黄柏之苦，俾合人参创建中气，以伸参两之权，殊非好为增益成方之比，故录用之。
天真丸 治疗一切亡血过多，形槁肢羸，食饮不进，肠胃滑泄，津液枯竭。久服生血养气，暖胃驻颜。
精羊肉（七斤，去筋膜，脂皮批开，入下药末。）
肉苁蓉（十两）、当归（十二两，洗去芦）、山药（湿者去皮十两）、天门冬（去心焙干一斤）。以上四味为末，安羊肉内裹缚，用无灰酒四瓶，煮令酒尽，再入水二升煮，候肉糜烂，再入黄[耆]末（五两）、人参末（三两）、白术末（二两），熟糯米饭，焙干作饼，将前后药末和丸桐子大。一日二次，服三百丸，温酒下。如难丸，用蒸饼五七枚，焙干，入臼中杵千下，丸之。按语：此方可谓长于用补矣，人参、羊肉同功，而苁蓉、山药，为男子佳珍，合之当归养荣，黄[耆]益卫，天冬保肺，白术健脾，而其法制甚精，允为补方之首。
麦煎散 治疗少男室女，骨蒸黄瘦，口臭肌热，盗汗，妇人风血。攻疰四肢。
赤茯苓、当归、干漆、鳖甲（醋炙）、常山、大黄（煨）、柴胡、白术、生地黄、石膏（各一两）、甘草（半两）。以上为末，每次服用三钱，小麦五十粒，水煎食后临卧服。若有虚汗，加麻黄根一两。按语：此方治肝肺脾胃火盛，灼干营血，乃致口臭肌热可验。故用润血行瘀之法，以小麦煎之，引入胃中。盖胃之血干，热炽大肠必然枯燥，服此固可无疑，然更加人参助胃真气，庶可多服取效也。
人参地骨皮散 治疗藏中积冷，荣中热，按之不足，举之有余，阴不足而阳有余也。
茯苓（半两）、知母、石膏（各一两）、地骨皮、人参、柴胡、生地黄（各一两五钱）。以上切碎，每次服用一两，生姜三片，枣一枚，水煎细细温服，间服生精补虚地黄丸。按语：藏中积冷，荣中热，冷热各偏，为害不一。此方但可治荣热耳，于藏冷无预也。方后云：间服生精补血地黄丸，岂一方中而当两涉耶？又岂以治荣热为最急，无暇分功于藏冷耶？如法用之，俟荣热稍清，兼治藏冷，要亦用药之小权衡耳。
东垣补中益气汤 黄[耆]（一钱五分）、人参、甘草（炙，各一钱）、白术、当归身、柴胡、升麻、陈皮（各五分）。以上切碎，水煎。
东垣益胃升阳汤 前方加炒曲（一钱五分）、生黄芩（泻盛暑之伏，庚金肺逆，每服少许，秋凉去之）。以上切碎，水煎。
丹溪大补丸 黄柏（炒褐色）、知母（酒浸炒，各四两）、熟地黄（酒蒸）、败龟板（酥炙黄为末，各六两）。以上为末，猪脊髓和，炼蜜丸如桐子大。每次七十丸，空心淡盐汤送下。
补阴丸 黄柏（半斤，盐酒炒）、知母（酒浸炒）、熟地黄（各三两）、败龟板（四两，酒浸炒）、白芍（炒）、陈皮、牛膝（各二两）、琐阳、当归（各一两半）、虎骨（一两，酒浸酥炙）。以上为末，酒煮羊肉，丸如桐子大。每次五六十丸，盐汤下，冬加干姜半两。
Guizhi Longgu Muli Tang (Cinnamon Twig, Dragon Bone, and Oyster Shell Decoction) from *Jingui Yaolue* (Discussions on this formula are in the preceding text; *Duanju* states: for those who are weak, have floating heat, and sweat, remove Guizhi and add Baiwei and Fuzi, each 3 fen, hence it is called Erjia Longgu Tang.)
Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig), Shaoyao (White Peony Root), Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger) (each 3 liang), Gancao (Licorice Root) (2 liang), Dazao (Jujube) (12 pieces), Longgu (Dragon Bone), Muli (Oyster Shell) (each 3 liang). The above seven ingredients are decocted with 7 sheng of water to obtain 3 sheng. Divide into three warm doses.
Tianxiong San (Aconite Root Powder) from *Jingui Yaolue* (Discussion available).
Tianxiong (Prepared Aconite Root) (3 liang, processed), Baizhu (Atractylodes Rhizome) (8 liang), Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig) (6 liang), Longgu (Dragon Bone) (3 liang). The above four ingredients are pounded into a powder. Take half a qianbi (a small measuring spoon) with wine, three times daily. If ineffective, slightly increase the dose.
Xiao Jianzhong Tang (Minor Construct the Middle Decoction) from *Jingui Yaolue* (Discussion available).
Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig, peeled) (3 liang), Gancao (Licorice Root, honey-fried) (3 liang), Dazao (Jujube) (12 pieces), Shaoyao (White Peony Root) (6 liang), Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger) (2 liang), Jiaoyi (Maltose) (1 sheng). The above six ingredients are decocted with 7 sheng of water to obtain 3 sheng. Strain, add Jiaoyi, and gently heat until dissolved. Take 1 sheng warm, three times daily. (Patients with vomiting should not use Jianzhong Tang due to its sweetness. *Qianjin Fang* treats men and women with stagnant cold qi or post-illness non-recovery, suffering from heavy limbs, sore bones and muscles, shortness of breath, fatigue upon movement, chest fullness,急促 breathing, stiff back and waist, palpitations, dry throat and lips, pale complexion, loss of taste, hypochondriac distension, heavy head, excessive lying down, progressing to emaciation over years or months, exhaustion of the five zang organs, insufficient six pulses, deficiency-cold, lack of qi, lower abdominal tension, and various diseases due to emaciation, named Huangqi Jianzhong Tang. Additionally, Renshen (Ginseng Root) 2 liang may be added).
Huangqi Jianzhong Tang (Astragalus Minor Construct the Middle Decoction) from *Jingui Yaolue* (Discussion available. Add Huangqi (Astragalus Root) 1.5 liang to Xiao Jianzhong Tang, following the above method otherwise. For shortness of breath and chest fullness, add Shengjiang. For abdominal fullness, remove Dazao and add Fuling (Poria) 1.5 liang. To treat lung deficiency and tonify qi, add Banxia (Pinellia Tuber) 3 liang).
Leming Jianzhong Tang treats visceral deficiency, emaciation, tidal fever, spontaneous sweating, approaching phthisis. This medicine greatly reduces deficiency heat and generates blood and qi.
Qianhu (Peucedani Radix), Xixin (Asarum Root), Huangqi (Astragalus Root, honey-fried), Renshen (Ginseng Root), Guixin (Cinnamon Bark), Juapi (Citrus Peel, white part removed), Danggui (Angelica Sinensis Root), Baishaoyao (White Peony Root), Fuling (Poria), Maidong (Ophiopogon Tuber), Gancao (Licorice Root, fried, each 1 liang), Banxia (Pinellia Tuber, washed seven times in hot water, sliced, 7.5 qian). Take 4 qian per dose, with 1 sheng of water, 4 slices of ginger, and 1 jujube. Decoct to 0.7 sheng, take warm at any time. Note: Leming Jianzhong Tang treats deficiency heat in consumptive disease by establishing the Ying (Nutritive) Blood within. Ying Qi circulates through the twelve meridians and is the essence of food and drink; thus, establishing Ying Qi allows it to be named "Constructing the Middle."
Shisiwei Jianzhong Tang (Fourteen-Ingredient Construct the Middle Decoction) treats disharmony of Ying and Wei, insufficiency of blood and qi, chronic consumption, emaciation, shortness of breath, lethargy, approaching phthisis.
Danggui (Angelica Sinensis Root, soaked in wine and baked), Baishaoyao (White Peony Root), Baizhu (Atractylodes Rhizome), Maidong (Ophiopogon Tuber, core removed), Gancao (Licorice Root, fried), Rousongrong (Cistanche Stem), Renshen (Ginseng Root), Chuanxiong (Ligusticum Rhizome), Rougui (Cinnamon Bark), Fuzi (Prepared Aconite Root), Huangqi (Astragalus Root), Zhibanxia (Processed Pinellia Tuber), Shudihuang (Rehmannia Root, steamed in wine and baked), Fuling (Poria) (equal parts). Coarsely crush. Take 3 qian per dose, with 1 sheng of water, 3 slices of ginger, and 1 jujube. Take warm on an empty stomach. Note: Shisiwei Jianzhong Tang treats inherent weakness of the Zang organs by simultaneously strengthening the Yin and Yang of the Spleen and Kidney. Consumptive diseases often originate in the Spleen and Kidney, so extending the method of "Constructing the Middle" is appropriate. These two formulas are later innovations surpassing standard prescriptions.
Bawei Shenqi Wan (Eight-Ingredient Kidney Qi Pill) from *Jingui Yaolue* (Discussion available, formula in preceding text).
Shuyu Wan (Dioscorea Pill) from *Jingui Yaolue* (Discussion available).
Shuyu (Dioscorea Rhizome) (30 fen), Danggui (Angelica Sinensis Root), Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig), Gadihuang (Dry Rehmannia Root), Qu (Medicated Leaven), Douhuangjuan (Sojae Germen) (each 10 fen), Gancao (Licorice Root) (28 fen), Xiong (Ligusticum Rhizome), Maidong (Ophiopogon Tuber), Shaoyao (White Peony Root), Baizhu (Atractylodes Rhizome), Xingren (Apricot Seed) (each 6 fen), Renshen (Ginseng Root) (7 fen), Chaihu (Bupleurum Root), Jiegeng (Platycodon Root), Fuling (Poria) (each 5 fen), Ejiao (Donkey-hide Gelatin) (7 fen), Jiangjiang (Dried Ginger) (3 fen), Bailian (Belamcanda Rhizome) (2 fen), Fangfeng (Saposhnikovia Root) (6 fen), Dazao (Jujube) (100 pieces, made into paste). The above 21 ingredients are powdered, mixed with refined honey, and formed into pills the size of a bullet. Take one pill with wine on an empty stomach; 100 pills constitute one course.
Suanzaoren Tang (Ziziphus Seed Decoction) from *Jingui Yaolue* (Discussion available).
Suanzaoren (Ziziphus Seed) (2 sheng), Gancao (Licorice Root) (1 liang), Zhimu (Anemarrhena Rhizome) (2 liang), Fuling (Poria) (2 liang), Xiong (Ligusticum Rhizome) (2 liang) (*Shenshi Fang* adds Shengjiang 2 liang). The above five ingredients are decocted with 8 sheng of water. First decoct Suanzaoren until 6 sheng remain, then add other herbs and decoct to obtain 3 sheng. Divide into three warm doses.
Dahuang Zhechong Wan (Rhubarb and Ground Beetle Pill) from *Jingui Yaolue* (Discussion available).
Dahuang (Rhubarb Root, steamed) (10 fen), Huangqin (Scutellaria Root) (2 liang), Gancao (Licorice Root) (3 liang), Taoren (Peach Seed) (1 sheng), Xingren (Apricot Seed) (1 sheng), Shaoyao (White Peony Root) (4 liang), Gadihuang (Dry Rehmannia Root) (10 liang), Ganqi (Dried Resin of Toxicodendron) (1 liang), Mengchong (Blue Bottle Fly Larva) (1 sheng), Shuizhi (Leech) (100 pieces), Qicao (Ground Beetle Larva) (1 sheng), Zhechong (Ground Beetle) (0.5 sheng). The above 12 ingredients are powdered, mixed with refined honey, and formed into pills the size of a mung bean. Take 5 pills with wine, three times daily.
Zhigancao Tang (Honey-Fried Licorice Decoction) from *Jingui Yaolue*, appended from *Qianjin Yifang* (Discussion available).
Gancao (Licorice Root, honey-fried) (4 liang), Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig), Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger) (each 3 liang), Maidong (Ophiopogon Tuber) (0.5 sheng), Mahren (Hemp Seed) (0.5 sheng), Renshen (Ginseng Root), Ejiao (Donkey-hide Gelatin) (each 2 liang), Dazao (Jujube) (30 pieces), Shengdi Huang (Fresh Rehmannia Root) (1 jin). The above nine ingredients are decocted with 7 sheng of wine and 8 sheng of water. First decoct the first eight ingredients to obtain 3 sheng, strain, add Ejiao until dissolved, and take 1 sheng warm, three times daily.
Tagan San (River Otter Liver Powder) from *Jingui Yaolue*, appended from *Zhouhou Beiji Fang* (Discussion available).
One River Otter Liver, dried by roasting and powdered. Take one fangcunbi (square-inch spoonful) with water, three times daily.
Shiquan Dabu San (Ten-Ingredient Great Tonifying Powder) treats various deficiencies in men and women, five labors and seven injuries, poor appetite, chronic deficiency, tidal fever, qi attacking the spine, stiffness and pain, nocturnal emission, sallow complexion, weak legs and knees, cough with chest fullness, weak Spleen and Kidney qi, five-center heat, and restlessness. All these conditions are treated.
Rougui (Cinnamon Bark), Gancao (Licorice Root), Shaoyao (White Peony Root), Huangqi (Astragalus Root), Danggui (Angelica Sinensis Root), Chuanxiong (Ligusticum Rhizome), Renshen (Ginseng Root), Baizhu (Atractylodes Rhizome), Fuling (Poria), Shudihuang (Rehmannia Root) (equal parts). Coarsely crush. Take two large qian per dose, with 1 sheng of water, 3 slices of ginger, and 2 jujubes. Decoct to 0.7 sheng, take warm at any time. Note: This formula combines Huangqi Jianzhong Tang, Sijunzi Tang (Four Gentlemen Decoction), and Siwu Tang (Four Substances Decoction), totaling ten ingredients, corresponding to the perfect number of heaven and earth, named Shiquan Dabu. It treats simultaneous deficiency of blood and qi and Yin and Yang, truly valuable. However, Rougui's pungent heat should not be the chief herb; if Kidney deficiency causes lower back and abdominal pain, use a small amount of Rougui. If Ying and Wei are deficient, use a small amount of Guizhi to harmonize, serving as an assistant.
Shengyu Tang (Sage Replenishing Decoction) treats all hemorrhages, blood deficiency with irritability and thirst, dryness and heat causing restless sleep, excessive pus discharge from sores, five-center heat, and thirst.
Shudihuang (Rehmannia Root), Shengdi Huang (Fresh Rehmannia Root), Danggui (Angelica Sinensis Root, mixed with wine, each 1 qian), Renshen (Ginseng Root), Huangqi (Astragalus Root, stir-fried), Chuanxiong (Ligusticum Rhizome) (each 1 qian). Decoct with water and take. Note: Excessive bleeding or prolonged suppurating sores indicate Yin deficiency, but Yang deficiency is invariably present. Combining Renshen and Huangqi is indeed a good method. Generally, Yin deficiency cases should follow this principle.
Heidihuang Wan (Black Earth Rehmannia Pill) treats excess Yang and deficiency Yin, insufficient Spleen and Stomach, sexual depletion, emaciation and weakness, greenish-yellow complexion without fixed color. This is a Qi-tonifying and Stomach-nourishing agent.
Cangzhu (Atractylodes Lancea Rhizome, soaked in wine, 1 jin), Shudihuang (Rehmannia Root, 1 jin), Wuweizi (Schisandra Fruit) (0.5 jin), Jiangjiang (Dried Ginger) (1 liang in autumn/winter, 0.5 liang in summer, 7 qian in spring). Powder finely, mix with jujube paste, and form pills the size of wutong seeds. Take 100 pills before meals with rice water or wine. Excellent for blood deficiency and chronic hemorrhoids. *Neijing* states: "The Kidney dislikes dryness; hasten to eat pungent substances to moisten it." This medicine opens the pores, generates fluids, and moves Qi; Wuweizi's sourness astringes it. Although Yang is excess, there is no dryness-heat; rather, it is internal deficiency of the five Zang organs, thus benefiting blood and gathering Qi. This formula is akin to a divine prescription. Note: Cangzhu is the chief, Dihuang the minister, Wuweizi the assistant, and Jiangjiang the envoy. It treats Spleen and Kidney deficiency while removing Spleen dampness and Kidney dryness, excelling in both aspects, far superior to later Spleen-Kidney dual tonics with mixed ingredients.
Huanshao Dan (Return to Youth Pill) greatly tonifies all deficiencies of the Heart, Kidney, Spleen, and Stomach, mental and physical exhaustion, sudden decline in strength, heavy waist and legs, limb fatigue, blood and qi debility, and turbid urine.
Shanyao (Dioscorea Rhizome), Niuxi (Achyranthes Root, soaked in wine), Yuanzhi (Polygala Root, core removed), Shanzhuyu (Cornus Fruit, pit removed), Baifuling (White Poria, peel removed), Wuweizi (Schisandra Fruit), Bajitian (Morinda Root, soaked in wine, core removed), Rousongrong (Cistanche Stem, soaked in wine overnight), Shichangpu (Acorus Rhizome), Chushi (Celtis Fruit), Duzhong (Eucommia Bark, coarse peel removed, stir-fried with ginger juice and wine until silk breaks), Bo Huixiang (Fennel Fruit) (each 1 liang), Gouqizi (Goji Berry), Shudihuang (Rehmannia Root) (each 2 liang) (According to *Baojian*, Yang's original formula had Shanyao and Niuxi 1.5 liang each, Fuling, Shanzhuyu, Chushi, Duzhong, Wuweizi, Bajitian, Rousongrong, Yuanzhi, Huixiang 1 liang each, Shichangpu, Dihuang, Gouqizi 0.5 liang each). Powder finely, mix with refined honey and jujube paste, form pills the size of tung seeds. Take 30 pills with warm wine or salt water, three times daily before meals. After five days, strength returns; after ten days, spirit brightens; after half a month, Qi strengthens; after twenty days, eyesight clears; after one month, appetite increases at night, hands and feet stay warm in winter. Long-term use lightens the body, strengthens sinews and bones, enhances complexion, and delays aging. Adjust based on constitution. Add Zhizi Ren (Gardenia Seed) 1 liang for heat. Add Maidong 1 liang for restless Heart Qi. Add Wuweizi 1 liang for low spirit. Add Xuduan (Dipsacus Root) 1 liang for weak Yang. Regular use strengthens teeth, prevents malaria, improves female complexion, warms the uterus, and cures all diseases. Note: Yang's formulation gently tonifies the Heart, Kidney, Spleen, and Lung, aligning with *Neijing*: "For exhaustion, use warmth; for deficiency, use warmth." It is mild and peaceful, waiting for natural recovery. Suitable only for early-stage consumptive disease; if advanced, it is too slow. Generally effective for healthy middle-aged men and women. The name "Return to Youth" implies its purpose.
Renshen Yangrong Tang (Ginseng Nourishing Nutritive Decoction) treats combined Spleen and Lung deficiency, fever and aversion to cold, emaciated and tired limbs, poor appetite and diarrhea. If blood and qi deficiency manifest various symptoms, regardless of the disease or pulse, using this decoction will resolve them.
Baishaoyao (White Peony Root) (1.5 qian), Renshen (Ginseng Root), Chenpi (Aged Tangerine Peel), Huangqi (Astragalus Root, honey-fried), Guixin (Cinnamon Bark), Danggui (Angelica Sinensis Root), Baizhu (Atractylodes Rhizome), Gancao (Licorice Root, fried, each 1 qian), Shudihuang (Rehmannia Root), Wuweizi (Schisandra Fruit, stir-fried and crushed), Fuling (Poria) (each 0.75 qian), Yuanzhi (Polygala Root, core removed) (0.5 qian). Decoct with ginger and jujube water and take. Note: The ingredients primarily target the Heart and Spleen, not strongly tonifying the Lung. However, nourishing Ying Qi correctly involves tonifying the Heart and Spleen, as Ying Qi is the essence of food and drink governed by the Spleen. Upon reaching the Upper Jiao, Lung Wei and Heart Ying divide blood and qi governance. Thus, nourishing Ying does not originally extend to the Lung; the note on Lung deficiency in the formula is erroneous. Chang clarifies this because the meaning of nourishing Ying is crucial for consumptive disease.
Canzhu Gao (Ginseng and Atractylodes Paste) treats stroke-related weakness unresponsive to other medicines, or excessive consumption of vital Qi due to improper medication, leading to numerous deficiency syndromes. Using this medicine to tonify Middle Qi will cure all symptoms.
Renshen (Ginseng Root), Baizhu (Atractylodes Rhizome) (equal parts). Decoct with water to a thick liquid and take. Note: This formula is not specifically designed for consumptive disease, yet it is essential for treating it. The ingredients are precious, and its effects are rapid and swift, unsurpassed by others. Later additions of Yiren (Coix Seed), Lianrou (Lotus Seed Flesh), Huangqi, Fuling, Shenqu (Medicated Leaven), Zexie (Alisma Rhizome), and Gancao are questionable regarding their role in tonifying primordial Qi. Stingy people may happily adopt these additions.
Renshen San (Ginseng Powder) treats pathogenic heat lodging in meridians, phlegm-cough with irritability and heat, dizziness and headache, night sweats, fatigue, and all blood-heat conditions fearing exhaustion.
Huangqin (Scutellaria Root) (0.5 liang), Renshen (Ginseng Root), Baizhu (Atractylodes Rhizome), Fuling (Poria), Chi Shaoyao (Red Peony Root), Banxia Qu (Pinellia Medicated Leaven), Chaihu (Bupleurum Root), Gancao (Licorice Root), Danggui (Angelica Sinensis Root), Gange (Kudzu Root) (each 1 liang). Take 3 qian per dose, with 1 sheng of water, 4 slices of ginger, and 2 jujubes. Decoct to 0.7 sheng, take warm at any time. Note: This formula treats pathogenic heat shallowly lodged in meridians, not deeply invading Zang organs. Although using light herbs like Chaihu and Gange, it relies entirely on the power of Renshen and Baizhu to expel the pathogen. To prevent pathogen entering phlegm channels, Fuling and Banxia move phlegm. Combined with Danggui, Chi Shaoyao, and Huangqin, they treat heat in the blood. The dose is kept small (3 qian). Knowing restraint allows the safe use of Chaihu and Gange. This is Xu Shumi's formula, revealing deep insight, which Chang elucidates.
Baozhen Tang (Preserve Truth Decoction) treats consumptive disease with body weakness and bone-steaming fever, providing clear tonification.
Danggui (Angelica Sinensis Root), Shengdi Huang (Fresh Rehmannia Root), Shudihuang (Rehmannia Root), Huangqi (Astragalus Root, honey-water fried), Renshen (Ginseng Root), Baizhu (Atractylodes Rhizome), Gancao (Licorice Root), Baifuling (White Poria) (each 0.5 qian), Tianmendong (Asparagus Tuber, core removed), Maidong (Ophiopogon Tuber, core removed), Baishaoyao (White Peony Root), Huangbai (Phellodendron Bark, salt-water fried), Zhimu (Anemarrhena Rhizome), Wuweizi (Schisandra Fruit), Ruan Chaihu (Soft Bupleurum Root), Digupi (Lycium Bark), Chenpi (Aged Tangerine Peel) (each 1 qian), Lianxin (Lotus Plumule) (0.5 qian). Decoct with 2 zhong of water, 3 slices of ginger, and 1 jujube to 0.8 zheng. Take well after meals. Note: This 18-ingredient formula uses 9 ingredients from Shiquan Dabu Tang, excluding only Rougui. Adding Dihuang replaces the ascending nature of Chuanxiong, which is more suitable. Huangbai, Zhimu, and Wuweizi nourish Kidney Water; Tianmendong, Maidong, and Digupi clear and tonify the Lung; Chaihu enters the Liver to clear heat; Chenpi assists the Spleen in moving stagnation. The emphasis is on Tianmendong, Maidong, Huangbai, Zhimu, Wuweizi, Digupi, and Chaihu, reluctantly borrowing Shiquan Dabu to facilitate action. The intent is not strong tonification, but it is a valid method, hence recorded.
Sancai Fengsui Dan (Three Capabilities Sealing Marrow Pill) descends Heart Fire, benefits Kidney Water, nourishes Yin and blood, moistens and tonifies without drying.
Tianmendong (Asparagus Tuber, core removed), Shudihuang (Rehmannia Root), Renshen (Ginseng Root) (each 0.5 liang), Huangbai (Phellodendron Bark) (3 liang), Sharen (Amomum Fruit) (1.5 liang), Gancao (Licorice Root, fried) (0.75 liang). Powder the above six ingredients, make pills with wheat paste the size of tung seeds. Take 50 pills per dose. Soak 0.5 liang of Rousongrong slices in 1 sheng of wine overnight, boil 3-4 times next day, strain, and take on an empty stomach before meals. Note: Added to Sancai Wan are Huangbai, Sharen, and Gancao. Huangbai enters the Kidney to nourish Yin; Sharen enters the Spleen to move stagnation; Gancao moderates the bitterness of Tianmendong and Huangbai, combining with Renshen to construct Middle Qi, balancing the powers of Ginseng. This is not merely adding to existing formulas, hence recorded.
Tianzhen Wan (Heavenly True Pill) treats excessive blood loss, emaciation and limb wasting, inability to eat or drink, loose bowels, and exhaustion of fluids. Long-term use generates blood, nourishes Qi, warms the Stomach, and preserves youth.
Fine Lamb Meat (7 jin, remove fascia, slice open fat skin, insert powdered herbs below.)
Rousongrong (Cistanche Stem) (10 liang), Danggui (Angelica Sinensis Root, wash off roots) (12 liang), Shanyao (Dioscorea Rhizome, wet ones peeled) (10 liang), Tianmendong (Asparagus Tuber, core removed, dried) (1 jin). Powder the above four ingredients, wrap inside lamb meat, tie securely. Decoct with 4 bottles of pure wine until wine is exhausted, then add 2 sheng of water and cook until meat is tender. Add Huangqi powder (5 liang), Renshen powder (3 liang), Baizhu powder (2 liang), and cooked glutinous rice. Bake into cakes, mix with previous powders, and form pills the size of tung seeds. Take 300 pills twice daily with warm wine. If difficult to pill, bake 5-7 steamed buns, pound 1000 times in a mortar, and pill. Note: This formula excels in tonification. Renshen and lamb meat share efficacy; Rousongrong and Shanyao are excellent for men. Combined with Danggui to nourish Ying, Huangqi to benefit Wei, Tianmendong to protect Lung, and Baizhu to strengthen Spleen, its preparation is exquisite, worthy of being the head of tonifying formulas.
Maijian San (Wheat Decoction Powder) treats young men and women with bone-steaming, yellow emaciation, bad breath, skin heat, night sweats, and women's wind-blood. Attacks limbs with infectious diseases.
Chifuling (Red Poria), Danggui (Angelica Sinensis Root), Ganqi (Dried Resin of Toxicodendron), Biejia (Softshell Turtle Shell, vinegar-roasted), Changshan (Radix Dichroae), Dahuang (Rhubarb Root, baked), Chaihu (Bupleurum Root), Baizhu (Atractylodes Rhizome), Shengdi Huang (Fresh Rehmannia Root), Shigao (Gypsum Fibrosum) (each 1 liang), Gancao (Licorice Root) (0.5 liang). Powder. Take 3 qian per dose with 50 wheat grains, decoct with water, take after meals before bed. If deficient sweating occurs, add Mahuanggen (Ephedra Root) 1 liang. Note: This formula treats excess fire in Liver, Lung, Spleen, and Stomach burning Ying blood, causing bad breath and skin heat. Thus, it uses blood-moistening and stasis-resolving methods, decocting with wheat to guide into the Stomach. Since Stomach blood is dry and heat blazes in the Large Intestine causing dryness, taking this is unquestionable. However, adding Renshen to assist Stomach true Qi allows for better results with continued use.
Renshen Digupi San (Ginseng and Lycium Bark Powder) treats accumulated cold in Zang organs, heat in Ying, deficiency on pressure, excess on lifting, indicating insufficient Yin and excess Yang.
Fuling (Poria) (0.5 liang), Zhimu (Anemarrhena Rhizome), Shigao (Gypsum Fibrosum) (each 1 liang), Digupi (Lycium Bark), Renshen (Ginseng Root), Chaihu (Bupleurum Root), Shengdi Huang (Fresh Rehmannia Root) (each 1.5 liang). Coarsely crush. Take 1 liang per dose with 3 slices of ginger and 1 jujube. Decoct with water, take warm slowly. Intermittently take Shengjing Buxu Dihuang Wan (Generate Essence and Tonify Deficiency Rehmannia Pill). Note: Accumulated cold in Zang and heat in Ying create different harms. This formula only treats Ying heat, not Zang cold. The formula notes intermittent use of Shengjing Buxu Dihuang Wan. Is one formula meant to address two issues? Or is treating Ying heat most urgent, leaving no time for Zang cold? Following this method, wait for Ying heat to clear slightly, then treat Zang cold. This is a minor balance in medication.
Dongyuan Buzhong Yiqi Tang (East Mountain Center-Building Qi-Boosting Decoction)
Huangqi (Astragalus Root) (1.5 qian), Renshen (Ginseng Root), Gancao (Licorice Root, fried, each 1 qian), Baizhu (Atractylodes Rhizome), Danggui Shen (Angelica Sinensis Root heart), Chaihu (Bupleurum Root), Shengma (Cimicifuga Rhizome), Chenpi (Aged Tangerine Peel) (each 0.5 qian).
