薛氏 治胎热用此。
婴儿在母体中时，母亲若经常受到惊吓或心悸，或者食用了具有热毒性质的食物，婴儿出生后十几天内，常出现虚痰、气急喘促胸满、眼睛闭合且眼白发红、眼睑浮肿、精神困倦频繁打哈欠、口中发出呢喃声、全身高热、小便颜色深红、大便不通畅、时常惊悸烦躁等症状。这是因为胎儿在母体内受热，或者误服了温补药物，导致热邪蓄积在体内，熏蒸胎气，从而产生上述证候。如果长期不治疗，就会引发鹅口疮、重舌、木舌、赤紫丹瘤等疾病。应当先用木通散煎汤让母亲服用，使药力通过乳汁进入婴儿体内，以疏通心气、解除烦热；然后用四圣散温水清洗双眼，待眼睛睁开后，再给予地黄膏、天竺黄散、牛蒡汤、当归散等药物，同时也让母亲服用这些药物。凡是患有胎疾的婴儿，不能追求速效，应当先让乳母服药，使药力经过乳汁慢慢化解病邪，这样几乎不会出错；如果直接用寒凉药物攻伐，必定会引发其他疾病。乳母仍然需要忌食辛辣、酒类及面食，这样才容易痊愈，避免病情反复。

薛氏（薛己）：治疗胎热使用此方。
When the fetus is in the womb, if the mother suffers from frequent fright or palpitations, or consumes foods with heat-toxic properties, within ten days after birth, the infant often presents with deficiency-phlegm, rapid breathing with chest fullness, closed eyes with red sclerae, swollen eyelids, lethargy with frequent yawning, muttering sounds, generalized high fever, dark red urine, constipation, and occasional惊烦 (frightened irritability). This is due to heat accumulation in the womb or the mistaken administration of warm-tonifying agents, causing heat to stagnate internally and steaming the fetal qi, thus producing these symptoms. If left untreated for a long time, conditions such as鹅口 (thrush), 重舌 (double tongue), 木舌 (wooden tongue), and 赤紫丹瘤 (red-purple carbuncles) will arise. One should first administer Mutong San (Wood Vitis Decoction) to the mother to be taken orally, allowing the medicinal effect to enter through breast milk, thereby unblocking Heart qi and resolving烦热 (irritating heat). Subsequently, wash both eyes with Sisheng San (Four Sages Powder) mixed with warm water. Once the eyes open, administer Dihuang Gao (Rehmannia Ointment), Tianzhu Huang San (Calamus Powder), Niubang Tang (Arctium Decoction), and Danggui San (Angelica Decoction), also having the mother take these medicines. For any fetal disease, one must not seek rapid results; instead, one should first have the wet nurse take medicine so that its effects pass into the milk, gradually resolving the condition. This approach is almost foolproof. If cold-natured drugs are used directly to attack the pathogen, other diseases will inevitably arise. The wet nurse must still avoid spicy foods, alcohol, and wheat products, so that recovery is easier and relapse is prevented.
Shengdi Huang Tang (Raw Rehmannia Decoction) [from Tang Shi]: Treats infants who, while in the womb, were affected by maternal heat or excessive consumption of wine and wheat products containing heat-toxins. The heat transmitted to the fetus causes the newborn to present with a red face, closed eyes, body high fever, incessant crying, and an oral cavity hot like boiling water, which are signs of fetal heat.
Herbs: Sheng Di Huang (Radix Rehmanniae Preparata), Chi Shao Yao (Radix Paeoniae Rubra), Chuan Xiong (Rhizoma Chuanxiong), Dang Gui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis), Gua Lou Gen (Radix Trichosanthis).
All ingredients in equal proportions, crushed. Take half liang per dose, add one zhan of water, decoct until six-tenths remains. The postpartum woman may also take this, applying a small amount to the infant's mouth.
Mutong San (Akebia Decoction): Mainly treats upper jiao heat in infants, urinary obstruction, and various sores and erysipelas. Taken by both mother and child.
Herbs: Mu Tong (Caulis Akebiae), Di Fu Zi (Fructus Kochiae), Ku Xing (Herba Siegesbeckiae) (each half liang), Da Huang (Radix et Rhizoma Rhei), Gan Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae), Chi Fu Ling (Poria cum Rubro) (each three qian), Qu Mai (Herba Dianthi), Hua Shi (Talcum), Shan Zhi Zi (Fructus Gardeniae), Che Qian Zi (Semen Plantaginis), Huang Qin (Radix Scutellariae) (each two and a half qian).
Add one zhong of water, three stems of Deng Xin Cao (Medulla Junci), or add Bo He (Menthae Haplocalycis Herba) and decoct together.
Niang Ru Fa (Method of Nourishing Milk):
Herbs: Zhu Ling (Poria), Ze Xie (Rhizoma Alismatis), Chi Fu Ling (Poria cum Rubro) (peeled), Tian Hua Fen (Radix Trichosanthis), Yin Chen (Herba Artemisiae Scopariae), Sheng Gan Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae), Sheng Di Huang (Radix Rehmanniae), Shan Zhi Zi (Fructus Gardeniae) (shelled).
Crush into powder. Decoct in water. After meals, the wet nurse should express and discard retained milk, then take this medicine.
Gan Dou Tang (Licorice and Black Soybean Decoction): Treats infantile fetal heat.
Herbs: Gan Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae) (one qian), Hei Dou (Semen Sojae Nigrum) (two qian), Dan Zhu Ye (Folium Bambusae) (seven leaves).
Crush. Add one zhong of water, seven stems of Deng Xin Cao, decoct, and take at any time.
Sisheng San (Four Sages Powder): Mainly treats infants suffering from fetal heat-toxin, resulting in inability to open eyes after birth.
Herbs: Deng Xin Cao (Medulla Junci), Huang Lian (Rhizoma Coptidis), Qin Pi (Cortex Fraxini), Mu Zei (Equiseti Ramulus), Zao Zi (Fructus Jujubae) (each half liang).
Decoct in one zhong of water, clarify and remove dregs. Wash the eyes whenever possible; the eyes will naturally open. Afterwards, take Dihuang Gao.
Dihuang Gao (Rehmannia Ointment): Treats fetal heat.
Herbs: Shan Zhi Ren (Semen Gardeniae), Lv Dou Fen (Farmen Phaseoli Mungonis), Fen Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Praeparata cum Melle) (six qian).
Grind into powder. Mash one and a half liang of fresh Sheng Di Huang thoroughly, mix with one and a half liang of good honey. Store in a thin clay vessel and boil in a copper pot until it becomes an ointment resembling thin paste. After cooling, mix in the aforementioned powders and grind again in a mortar. Form pills the size of Euryale Seed (Qian Shi). Take half a pill each time, dissolved in Maidong Tang (Ophiopogon Decoction).
Tianzhu Huang San (See Thrush section), Niubang Tang (See Throat section), Danggui San (See Tidal Fever section), Qingwei San (See Miscellaneous Diseases - Teeth section).
Xue Shi (Dr. Xue Ji): Uses this formula to treat fetal heat.
