宣通、辟除邪气、止血并促进肌肉生长。
（降真香）味辛性温。能驱除怪异邪恶之气。治疗跌打损伤和金刃创伤。具有止血定痛、消肿生肌的功效。（周崇被海寇用刀砍伤，血流不止，敷用花蕊石散无效；军士李高用紫金藤散外敷，血止疼痛缓解，第二天结痂且无疤痕，曾救治万人。紫金藤，就是品质最佳的降真香。）忌与檀香同用。燃烧时能使各种香料下沉，因此得名。（金疮出血，可用降香、倍子、桐花等分研末外敷。）
宣通、顺气。
（乌药）味辛性温，气味香烈窜透。上行入脾肺二经，下行通膀胱与肾经。能疏理胸腹间逆乱之邪气。所有属于气机病变的疾病，皆可治疗。（四磨汤，治疗七情郁结导致上气喘急者，此方在降气中兼有收敛，在泻实中兼有补益。方用人参、乌药、沉香、槟榔各等分，研磨成浓汁七分，混合煎服。）气机顺畅则风邪自散，故用于治中气与中风。（厥逆痰壅、口噤脉伏，身体温热为中风，身体寒冷为中气；又有因痰致中风，无痰为中气。局方治疗此类病症，也使用乌药顺气散。许学士说：暴怒伤阴，暴喜伤阳，忧愁不已会导致气多厥逆，往往出现中气证候，不可当作中风治疗。老人突然昏倒，大抵是气血颓败、阴阳脱离所致，即张景岳所说的“非风”。若无痰气阻滞者，应当大补以固脱。）对于膀胱冷气、小便频数、白浊、反胃吐食、宿食不消、泻痢霍乱、妇女血凝气滞、小儿蛔虫病，以及外部如疮疖疥癞等皆由血逆引起的病症，通过调理气机也可以治疗。还能治疗猫犬的各种疾病。气血虚弱而有内热者不宜服用。根部有车毂纹、形状像连珠的为好。酒浸一夜后炒用。也有直接研末使用的。
Promotes circulation, expels evil qi, stops bleeding, and generates flesh.
Acrid and warm. Expels strange and evil qi. Treats traumatic injuries and metal-blade wounds. Stops bleeding, alleviates pain, reduces swelling, and generates flesh. (Zhou Chong was slashed by a pirate, with unceasing bleeding; applying Huarui Shi San [Flower Corundum Powder] was ineffective. Soldier Li Gao applied Zijin Teng San [Purple Gold Vine Powder], stopping the blood and pain; scabs formed the next day without scars. It had saved ten thousand people. Zijin Teng is the best quality of Jiangzhen Xiang [Draconis Resina].) Contraindicated with Tanxiang [Sandalwood]. When burned, it causes other aromatics to descend, hence its name. (For metal-blade wound bleeding, use Jiangxiang [Draconis Resina], Beizi [Galla Chinensis], and Tonghua [Koelreuteria Paniculata Flower] in equal parts, powdered and applied externally.)
Promotes circulation, regulates qi.
Acrid, warm, and aromatic with penetrating properties. Ascends to enter the Spleen and Lung meridians; descends to connect with the Bladder and Kidney meridians. It can disperse rebellious evil qi in the chest and abdomen. All diseases related to qi disorders can be treated. (Simo Tang [Four-Grind Decoction] treats panting and急促 breathing caused by emotional stagnation; this formula combines astringency with descending qi, and purgation with tonification. The prescription uses Renshen [Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma], Wuyao [Linderae Radix], Chenxiang [Aquilariae Lignum Resinatum], and Binglang [Arecae Semen] in equal parts, ground into thick juice, mixed and decocted for administration.] When qi flows smoothly, wind disperses; thus, it is used to treat Zhongqi [Qi Stroke] and Zhongfeng [Wind Stroke]. (Jue Ni [Rebellious Qi] with phlegm obstruction, locked jaw, and hidden pulse: body warmth indicates Zhongfeng; body coldness indicates Zhongqi. There is also Zhongfeng due to phlegm, and Zhongqi without phlegm. Ju Fang [Bureau Formulas] treats these conditions using Wuyao Shunqi San [Lindera Regulating Qi Powder]. Scholar Xu stated: Violent anger injures Yin; violent joy injures Yang; endless worry leads to excessive rebellious qi, often resulting in Zhongqi syndromes, which should not be treated as Zhongfeng. Sudden collapse in the elderly is generally due to the decline of qi and blood and the separation of yin and yang, what Zhang Jingyue called "Non-Wind." If there is no phlegm or qi obstruction, major tonification should be used to secure the collapse.) For Cold Qi in the Bladder, frequent urination, leukorrhea (Bai Zhuo), regurgitation and vomiting, undigested food retention, diarrhea, dysentery, cholera, women's blood stasis and qi stagnation, pediatric ascariasis, and external conditions such as sores, boils, scabies, and leprosy—all stemming from rebellious blood—can also be treated by regulating qi. It can also treat various diseases in cats and dogs. Contraindicated in cases of qi and blood deficiency with internal heat. Roots with cartwheel-like patterns and shapes resembling linked pearls are superior. Soak in wine overnight, then stir-fry. Some are used directly in powder form.
