There are five types of Dian disease (epilepsy/severe mental disorder):
1. Yang Dian: During an attack, the patient appears dead and experiences urinary incontinence, recovering after a while.
2. Yin Dian: Often contracted in infancy when the umbilical wound has not healed and the infant is bathed frequently.
3. Feng Dian (Wind Dian): During an attack, the eyes are drawn together, limbs are pulled and convulsed with opisthotonos, and the patient bleats like a sheep. Recovery takes about a meal's time. It is caused by sweating during fever and exposure to wind, excessive sexual activity, or intercourse after drunkenness and full meals, leading to constrained Heart Qi, shortness of breath, and palpitations.
4. Shi Dian (Damp Dian): Characterized by headache in the brow region and heavy body. It results from washing hair while sitting in heat, causing dampness to condense in the brain before sweat has ceased.
5. Ma Dian (Horse Dian): During an attack, the eyes roll back, the jaw is clenched, limbs are pulled inward, and the whole body becomes hot. It originates from disharmony between wind qi and heat in the brain during infancy.
The following formula can be used for any type of Dian disease. Formula composition:
Tong Qing (Azurite, *Azurite*), Xiong Huang (Realgar, *Realgar*), Kong Qing (Chrysocolla, *Chrysocolla*), Dong Men Shang Ji Tou (Rooster head caught near the East Gate, *Galli Caput*), Shui Yin (Mercury, *Hydrargyrum*), each 1 liang; Zhu Ling (Polyporus, *Polypori Umbilicati Sclerotium*), Fu Ling (Poria, *Poria*), Ren Shen (Ginseng Root, *Panacis Ginseng Radix*), Bai Zhi (Angelica Dahurica Root, *Angelicae Dahuricae Radix*), Shi Chang Sheng (likely a local herb name, unspecified Latin equivalent), Bai Lian (Ampelopsis Rhizome, *Ampelopsidis Rhizoma*), Bai Wei (Cynanchum Root, *Cynanchi Atrati Radix*), each 2 liang; Juan Bai (Selaginella, *Selaginellae Herba*), Wu Shan (Iris Pseudacorus Rhizome, *Iridis Tectori Rhizoma*), each 0.5 liang; Liu Huang (Sulfur, *Sulfur*) 1.5 liang.

Note: This formula contains many mineral substances at the beginning and end, making it suitable for the Northwest region. In the regions south of the Yangtze River, where the soil and water are soft and patients often present with deficiency syndromes, this formula is not appropriate. Clinically, cases are often concluded using Wuxie (Wushao She and Scorpion, *Agkistrodon venenum* and *Isoptera*), Liujun Zi Tang (Six Gentlemen Decoction), Lurong (Deer Antler, *Cervi Cornu Degelatinatum*), or Bawei Wan (Eight-Ingredient Pill). One cannot rigidly apply this formula as a general rule. (Commentary by Sun Simiao)
