黄帝问金冶子说：受惊导致的疾病，症状像奔豚病一样，这是什么病因呢？金冶子回答说：因惊恐引起的奔豚病，心中悸动不安，如同车盖受惊、被人恐吓一般，五脏功能紊乱不定，饮食即呕吐，胸中气满，狂躁痴呆想要奔跑，闭眼时胡言乱语，睁眼时妄语，有时瞪大眼睛看人，不与人交流，众医不知如何诊治，患者呼喊感觉被冒犯或亏欠，用奔豚汤主治。黄帝说：好。
黄帝问金冶子说：忧思引起的奔豚病，如何与惊恐引起的相区别？金冶子回答说：忧思引起的奔豚病，气满支撑于心下，心下部烦闷混乱，不想听到人的声音，发作有定时，病情时而好转时而加重，呼吸短促，手足逆冷，内部烦热结聚疼痛，恶心欲呕，众医不知如何诊治，患者呼喊感觉被触犯或冒犯，用奔豚汤主治。黄帝说：好。
老师说：患有类似奔豚病的，气从少腹升起，向上冲至咽喉，发作时痛苦欲死，过后又恢复生机，这些大多是因为惊恐所致，是肾间有脓的缘故。
老师说：疾病中有奔豚病，有吐脓血病，有惊怖病，有火邪病，这四种病，都是由惊恐引发的。其中由火邪引起的，用桂枝加龙骨牡蛎汤主治。如果是刚失去财产，被官府追捕逼迫，因惊恐而发病的，治疗使用鸱头（猫头鹰）、铅丹等药，其余药物未定。所谓奔豚病，是指病患气息逆乱喘迫上冲，像小猪奔走一样的状态，用奔豚汤主治。

Huangdi asked Jinyezi: "When a disease caused by fright presents with symptoms resembling Ben Tun (Rushing Pig), what is the pathology?" Jinyezi replied: "Ben Tun caused by fright involves palpitations in the heart, as if startled by a chariot canopy or terrified by people. The five Zang organs become unstable; food and drink are vomited immediately upon ingestion. There is fullness of Qi in the chest, mania and dementia with an urge to run, muttering while eyes are closed, and delirious speech when eyes are open. Sometimes the eyes and face are widened, refusing interaction. Physicians do not know how to treat it; the patient cries out feeling offended or indebted. Ben Tun Tang (Pursuing Pig Decoction) is the primary treatment." Huangdi said: "Excellent."
Huangdi asked Jinyezi: "How can one distinguish Ben Tun caused by worry and rumination from that caused by fright?" Jinyezi replied: "Ben Tun caused by worry and rumination involves Qi fullness supporting the heart region, irritability and confusion below the heart, aversion to hearing human voices, periodic attacks where the condition fluctuates between improvement and exacerbation, shallow breathing, cold extremities, internal heat and knotted pain, nausea with an urge to vomit. Physicians do not know how to treat it; the patient cries out feeling touched or offended. Ben Tun Tang is the primary treatment." Huangdi said: "Excellent."
The Master said: "Diseases resembling Ben Tun involve Qi rising from the lower abdomen and rushing up to the throat. During attacks, the patient feels as if dying, but recovers afterward. These are all caused by fright and terror, resulting from pus accumulation in the Kidney region."
The Master said: "Among diseases, there are Ben Tun, vomiting of pus, fright/terror, and Fire Evil. These four categories of disease all originate from fright. Those caused by Fire Evil are treated with Guizhi Jia Longgu Muli Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction plus Dragon Bone and Oyster Shell). If the onset follows sudden loss of wealth or persecution by officials due to fright, the treatment uses Owl heads and Lead Carbonate (Qian Dan), along with other unspecified ingredients. Regarding Ben Tun, it refers to the patient's Qi rebelling with panting and forcing upward, resembling the running of a pig. Ben Tun Tang is the primary treatment."
For treating sudden trauma, where eating causes pain on one side of the chest accompanied by trembling, and drinking water or broth produces similar effects, ask about the condition corresponding to these symptoms and urgently prepare this prescription.

Ben Tun Tang treats deficiency exhaustion damaging the Qi of the five Zang organs, allowing wandering Qi to return upward. When moving upward, it resembles a group of pigs chasing each other restlessly. Attacks occur suddenly like waking from a frightened dream. Essence and light are exhausted without luster, impotence occurs, pulling pain arises in the lower abdomen, intermittent fever with redness, mood swings, deafness, and dull vision are present. This formula addresses these conditions.

The state described as 'resembling Ben Tun' refers to the patient's Qi rushing upward like a running pig, characterized by panting and rebellious Qi. The term 'Ben Zhu' (Running Pig) in the formula name implies using male pigs fighting; they are driven to run, then slaughtered to use their blood and viscera in compounding the medicine. This is Gegen Ben Tun Tang (Kudzu Root Pursuing Pig Decoction).
Kudzu Root (Gegen) (eight liang, dried), Fresh Plum Root (Li Gen) (one sheng, peeled), Ginseng Root (Renshen) (three liang), Atractylodes Rhizome (Bai Zhu) (two liang), Pinellia Tuber (Banxia) (one sheng, washed and fried), Peony Root (Shaoyao) (three liang), Angelica Root (Danggui) (two liang), Cinnamon Bark (Guirou) (five liang), Fresh Ginger (Shengjiang) (one jin), Licorice Root (Gancao) (two liang).

Oyster Shell (Muli) (three liang, calcined), Cinnamon Heart (Guixin) (eight liang), White Bark of Plum Root (Ligen Baipi) (one jin, sliced), Licorice Root (Gancao) (three liang, honey-fried).
Cut the above four herbs, add one dou seven sheng of water. First decoct the plum root bark until seven sheng remain, remove dregs, add remaining herbs, and decoct again to obtain three sheng. Divide into doses of five he, taken three times during the day and twice at night. Avoid raw scallion, seaweed, and Chinese cabbage.
For treating cold extremities, chest fullness, shortness of breath, rising from the left and right of the navel, and oppression/dizziness, use Ben Tun Tang.
