《大全》记载:治疗产后因受惊导致败血冲心,出现昏闷发狂,仿佛有鬼祟作怪的症状,适宜使用《局方》中的大圣泽兰散,加入优质的辰砂研磨至极细,每次服用时增加约一字量的辰砂,用酸枣仁汤煎好后调服,服用一次即可安定。
薛己认为:上述证候是由于血虚导致神志不能守舍,必须通过补养元气来治疗,仍可参考后文各章节中互相通用的方药。
有一位产妇患有上述证候,有人使用大泽兰汤而痊愈;之后又出现心悸怔忡、胡言乱语的症状,且痰液非常多。于是使用茯苓散补益心气之虚,顿时痊愈;随后又使用八珍散(Eight Treasures Decoction)加入远志和茯神,以滋养气血而康复。
另一位产妇也患此病,使用化痰安神的药物,病情反而加重,精神思虑极度消耗。我认为这是心脾血气不足所致,使用了大剂量的人参、白术、川芎、当归、茯神、酸枣仁共四斤多,使患者安定下来,接着又服用归脾汤五十多剂才彻底痊愈。
大圣泽兰散 主治妇人血海虚冷,长期不孕以及产后败血冲心,中风口噤,胎死腹中,掰开嘴巴灌药,片刻后即可生下胎儿,从而安然无恙。治疗堕胎,腹中攻刺疼痛,横生逆产,胎盘不下,血晕血癖,血滞血崩,血液流入四肢,凡是血脏有病患及诸证风气,或者伤寒呕吐逆咳,寒热往来,全身生疮,头痛恶心,经脉不调,赤白带下,乳房产生恶气,胎脏虚冷,多次流产,崩漏不止,因此形成痰饮,少女经脉不通,都适宜服用此方。常服可温暖子宫,调和血气,美容悦色,祛除风冷,消除各种疾病,兼治男子五劳七伤,虚损等病。
药材组成:泽兰叶、石膏(研碎,各二两)、生地黄(一两半)、当归、川芎、芍药、芜荑、甘草(炙,各一两七钱半)、肉桂(一两二钱半)、浓朴(姜汁炒)、白茯苓、防风、细辛、吴茱萸(汤洗七次)、卷柏、柏子仁(微炒)、桔梗(各一两)、黄芪、人参、白术、丹参、五味子、川椒(去目并闭口者,微炒)、川乌头(炮制,去皮脐)、干姜(炮制)、藁本(去苗)、白芷(各七钱半)、白薇、阿胶(碎炒燥,各半两)。
以上药物研为细末,每次服用二钱,空腹或睡前用热酒调服,若是急症则不拘时间,每日服用三次。
药材组成:水银(二两)、黑铅(一两五钱)、朱砂(一两,细研)、乳香(一两,细研)。
先将黑铅放入铫内,用火熔化,加入水银搅拌结成砂状,再加入朱砂和乳香,趁热用柳木槌研磨均匀,制成如鸡头实大小的药丸,每次服用一丸,空腹用薄荷汤送服,服药后入睡不要惊醒,醒来即安。(人的神志以心为宅邸,水银的液体以朱砂为宅邸,朱砂的颜色通于心,水银的液体通于神,神妙应对无方,水银圆通不滞,二者都不衰败,所以同类相从。然而心火之下,若有阴精承接则安宁,水银流动,若有真铅制约则安定,之所以如此,都是用真水制约真火。本方用乳香通心气,朱砂养心血,铅汞在顷刻间交合于心肾,引导神志回归宅舍,神志回归则睡眠安稳了)妙香散也很好。
药材组成:石菖蒲、远志(去心)、人参、茯苓(去木)、辰砂(各三钱)、川芎、山药、铁粉、细辛、麦门冬(去心)、天麻、半夏(汤泡)、南星、白附子(各一两)。
以上药物研为末,用姜汁煮,糊丸如绿豆大小,另外用朱砂作为衣层,每次服用三十丸,睡前用姜汤送服。
加味八珍汤 产后癫狂,乃是血虚导致神志不能守舍,必须补养元气不可,使用此方,或者茯苓散、归脾汤。(以下两个方剂,见后文惊悸门)
药材组成:人参、白术、茯苓、甘草(炙)、当归、川芎、芍药、熟地黄、远志、茯神(各二钱)。
以上切碎,加生姜、大枣用水煎服。
乍见鬼神(与前文癫狂谵语门参看)
《大全》记载:心主宰身体的血脉,因为生产损伤耗竭血脉,导致心气虚弱,那些败血停积,向上干扰心脏,心脏受不了触动,于是导致心中烦躁,卧起不安,突然看见鬼神,言语错乱颠倒,医生不认识这种病症,称之为风邪,这样治疗,必定不会痊愈,只要服用调经散,每次服用时加入龙脑一捻量,能睡着就平安了。(妙处在于加入一捻龙脑)
薛己说:上述证候如果是败血停滞,使用调经散;如果是血虚发热,使用八珍散加炮姜;如果是心血虚损,使用柏子仁散。大体上此证都是心脾血少所致,只要调理补益胃气,那么痰浊自清而神志自然安宁(前面的论述只谈瘀血而不谈痰,这里谈痰却不治痰,只是调理胃气,如果确实有痰,也必须观察病人的勇怯体质来决定)。如果真的被鬼祟依附,即刻灸治鬼穴可以痊愈,如果不起作用,多是因为豁痰降火,攻伐太过造成的。
一位产妇患有上述证候,有人使用调经散,痊愈后又复发,仍服用前药,病情更加严重,痰涎上涌,早晨怕冷晚上发热。我早上使用八珍散,晚上使用加味归脾汤,各服用五十多剂而痊愈。
云岐治疗产后发热,胡言乱语奔走,脉象虚大的,使用四物汤加柴胡(脉虚的人岂可加柴胡,但从症状来看是可以的),如果不愈,加甘草、柴胡、生地黄等分煎服也可以。
药材组成:人参、茯神、生地黄、阿胶(各七钱半)、朱砂(五钱,另研)、甘草、琥珀、铁粉(另研)、麝香(另研,各一钱)。
以上研为细末,每次服用一钱,用金银煎汤调服。
药材组成:茯神(去木,一两)、人参、黄芪、赤芍、牛膝、琥珀(研)、龙齿(研,各七钱半)、生地黄(一两半)、桂心(半两)。
以上研为末,每次服用三钱,用水煎服。
一方 治疗产后血晕,心迷狂乱,恍惚如见鬼神。(凡是逐瘀的药物必含芳香热性,此方不含芳香,不燥热,是清凉降火逐瘀的圣药,这顺应时令特点,气虚者忌用)
药材组成:生益母草(三合,根也可以)、生地黄汁(二合)、童便(一合)、鸡蛋清(三个)。
以上共同煎煮三四沸,然后加入鸡蛋清搅匀,作为一次服用。
The *Daquan* records: To treat postpartum mania and unconsciousness caused by fright leading to "defeated blood" (stagnant blood) rushing to the heart, where the patient appears possessed by spirits, it is appropriate to use *Dasheng Zelan San* (Great Sage Mugwort Powder) from the *Ju Fang*. Add high-quality Chen Sha (Cinnabar), ground extremely fine. For each dose, add approximately one "yi" (a traditional small weight unit) of Chen Sha. Decoct Suan Zao Ren Tang (Ziziphus Decoction) and mix with the powder. One dose can bring calm.
Xue Ji stated: The aforementioned syndrome results from Blood deficiency causing the Shen (Spirit) to lose its residence. It cannot be treated without tonifying Yuan Qi (Primal Qi). Refer to the mutually applicable formulas in subsequent chapters.
A postpartum woman suffered from the aforementioned syndrome and was cured using Da Ze Lan Tang (Large Mugwort Decoction). Later, she developed palpitations and delirious speech, with excessive phlegm. She was treated with Fu Shen San (Poria Cocos Powder) to tonify Heart deficiency, resulting in immediate recovery. Subsequently, Ba Zhen San (Eight Treasures Powder) was used with Yuan Zhi (Polygala Root) and Fu Shen (Poria Cocos with Wood Removed) to nourish Qi and Blood, leading to her convalescence.
Another postpartum woman suffered from this condition. Treatment with phlegm-resolving and spirit-calming herbs exacerbated the illness, causing severe depletion of mental energy. I diagnosed it as insufficiency of Qi and Blood in the Heart and Spleen. I administered a large dose of Ren Shen (Ginseng), Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome), Chuan Xiong (Szechwan Lovage Rhizome), Dang Gui (Angelica Sinensis), Fu Shen, and Suan Zao Ren (Ziziphus Seed), totaling over four jin, which stabilized her. She was then cured after taking Gui Pi Tang (Restore the Spleen Decoction) for more than fifty doses.
**Dasheng Zelan San** (Great Sage Mugwort Powder): Treats cold deficiency in the Blood Sea (Uterus) in women, long-term infertility, postpartum defeated blood rushing to the heart, stroke with jaw lock, fetal death in utero (administered via forced feeding, the fetus is delivered shortly after, ensuring safety). Treats miscarriage, stabbing abdominal pain, breech presentation, retained placenta, syncope due to blood loss, blood stasis masses, hemorrhage, blood entering the limbs, any disorders of the blood organs and wind syndromes, or cold-heat alternating patterns from Shang Han (Cold Damage) with vomiting and coughing, widespread skin sores, headache, nausea, irregular menstruation, red and white leukorrhea, foul odor from breasts, cold deficiency of the fetal organ, recurrent miscarriages, indefinite metrorrhagia, phlegm formation due to these causes, and amenorrhea in unmarried women. All are suitable for this formula. Regular use warms the uterus, harmonizes Qi and Blood, beautifies complexion, dispels wind-cold, eliminates myriad diseases, and treats male five labors and seven injuries, and deficiency wasting syndromes.
Ingredients: Ze Lan Ye (Mugwort Leaf), Shi Gao (Gypsum Fibrosum, ground, 2 liang each), Sheng Di Huang (Rehmannia Root, 1.5 liang), Dang Gui (Angelica Sinensis), Chuan Xiong (Szechwan Lovage Rhizome), Shao Yao (Peony Root), Wu Yi (Chaulmoogra Seed), Gan Cao (Licorice Root, roasted, 1 liang 7 qian 5 fen each), Rou Gui (Cinnamon Bark, 1 liang 2 qian 5 fen), Hou Po (Magnolia Bark, stir-fried with ginger juice), Bai Fu Ling (Poria Cocos with Wood Removed), Fang Feng (Saposhnikovia Root), Xi Xin (Asarum), Wu Zhu Yu (Evodia Fruit, washed seven times in hot water), Juan Bai (Selaginella Tamariscina), Bai Zi Ren (Biota Seed, lightly stir-fried), Jie Geng (Platycodon Root, 1 liang each), Huang Qi (Astragalus Root), Ren Shen (Ginseng), Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome), Dan Shen (Salvia Miltiorrhiza), Wu Wei Zi (Schisandra Berry), Chuan Jiao (Sichuan Pepper, remove eyes and closed ones, lightly stir-fried), Chuan Wu Tou (Aconitum Carmichaelii Lateral Root, processed, peel and navel removed), Gan Jiang (Dried Ginger, processed), Ben Lu (Ligusticum Wallichii Rhizome, remove seedlings), Bai Zhi (Angelica Dahurica Root, 7 qian 5 fen each), Bai Wei (Cynanchum Atratum Root), E Jiao (Donkey-hide Gelatin, crushed, fried until dry, 0.5 liang each).
Grind all ingredients into fine powder. Take 2 qian per dose, mixed with warm wine on an empty stomach or before bed. For urgent conditions, take at any time, three times daily.
**Ba Dan Wan** (Gallbladder-Charging Pill): Treats postpartum mania due to excessive fright, or mania occurring during menstruation.
Ingredients: Shui Yin (Mercurius, 2 liang), Hei Qian (Lead, 1.5 liang), Zhu Sha (Cinnabar, 1 liang, finely ground), Ru Xiang (Frankincense, 1 liang, finely ground).
First, melt the Lead in a crucible over fire. Add Mercurius and stir until it forms granules. Add Cinnabar and Frankincense. While hot, grind evenly with a willow wood pestle. Form pills the size of a chestnut. Take one pill per dose, with Bohe Tang (Mint Decoction) on an empty stomach. Ensure the patient sleeps without being startled; upon waking, they will be calm. (The human Spirit resides in the Heart. The liquid nature of Mercurius finds its residence in Cinnabar. The color of Cinnabar corresponds to the Heart, and the fluidity of Mercurius corresponds to the Spirit. The Spirit responds wondrously without obstruction; Mercurius flows roundly without stagnation. Both do not decay through ten thousand kalpas, hence they are combined by similarity. However, below the Fire of the Heart, Yin Essence must support it for peace. The flow of Mercurius is stabilized by True Lead. This is achieved by using True Water to control True Fire. In this formula, Ru Xiang unblocks Heart Qi, and Zhu Sha nourishes Heart Blood. Lead and Mercury interact between Heart and Kidneys in an instant, guiding the Spirit back to its residence. When the Spirit returns, sleep becomes peaceful.) Miao Xiang San (Wonderful Fragrance Powder) is also effective.
**Chen Sha Yuan Zhi Wan** (Cinnabar and Polygala Pill): Treats postpartum stroke with fright and mania, restlessness in sitting and lying, or surging phlegm-saliva.
Ingredients: Shi Chang Pu (Acorus Rhizome), Yuan Zhi (Polygala Root, remove heart), Ren Shen (Ginseng), Fu Ling (Poria Cocos, remove wood), Chen Sha (Cinnabar, 3 qian each), Chuan Xiong (Szechwan Lovage Rhizome), Shan Yao (Dioscorea Rhizome), Tie Fen (Iron Powder), Xi Xin (Asarum), Mai Men Dong (Ophiopogon Tuber, remove heart), Tian Ma (Gastrodia Rhizome), Ban Xia (Pinellia Tuber, soaked in hot water), Nan Xing (Arisaema Cum Bile), Bai Fu Zi (Typhonium Rhizome, 1 liang each).
Grind into powder. Cook with ginger juice and form pills with paste, sized like mung beans. Coat separately with Cinnabar. Take 30 pills per dose, with ginger tea before bed.
**Jia Wei Ba Zhen Tang** (Modified Eight Treasures Decoction): Postpartum mania and madness result from Blood deficiency causing the Spirit to lose its residence; tonifying Yuan Qi is essential. Use this formula, or Fu Shen San (Poria Cocos Powder), or Gui Pi Tang (Restore the Spleen Decoction). (The latter two formulas are found in the subsequent Palpitations chapter).
Ingredients: Ren Shen (Ginseng), Bai Zhu (Atractylodes Macrocephala Rhizome), Fu Ling (Poria Cocos), Gan Cao (Licorice Root, roasted), Dang Gui (Angelica Sinensis), Chuan Xiong (Szechwan Lovage Rhizome), Shao Yao (Peony Root), Shu Di Huang (Prepared Rehmannia Root), Yuan Zhi (Polygala Root), Fu Shen (Poria Cocos with Wood Removed, 2 qian each).
Cut into pieces. Decoct with Sheng Jiang (Fresh Ginger) and Da Zao (Jujube) in water. Take orally.
**Zha Jian Shen Gui** (Suddenly Seeing Spirits/Ghosts) (Refer to the preceding Mania and Delirium chapter).
The *Daquan* records: The Heart governs the blood vessels of the body. Childbirth damages and depletes blood vessels, leading to Heart Qi deficiency. Defeated blood accumulates and interferes with the Heart. The Heart cannot tolerate this disturbance, resulting in inner irritability, restlessness in sleeping and rising, suddenly seeing spirits/ghosts, and disordered speech. If physicians fail to recognize this and diagnose it as Wind Evil, treatment will certainly fail. Simply administer Tiao Jing San (Regulate Menstruation Powder), adding one pinch of Long Nao (Borneol) per dose. Sleep indicates safety. (The subtlety lies in adding one pinch of Borneol).
Xue Ji said: For the aforementioned syndrome, if defeated blood is stagnant, use Tiao Jing San (Regulate Menstruation Powder); if there is Heat due to Blood deficiency, use Ba Zhen Tang (Eight Treasures Decoction) with Pao Jiang (Roasted Ginger); if there is Heart Blood deficiency, use Bai Zi Ren San (Biota Seed Powder). Generally, this syndrome is caused by insufficient Blood in the Heart and Spleen. By regulating and tonifying Stomach Qi, Phlegm clears and the Spirit naturally calms. (The previous discussion only mentioned blood stasis and did not mention Phlegm; this discussion mentions Phlegm but does not treat it directly, instead focusing on regulating Stomach Qi. If there is indeed Phlegm, one must observe the patient's courage or timidity to decide the approach). If it is truly possession by spirits, moxibustion on the Ghost Acupoints can cure it. If it fails, it is often due to excessive purging of Phlegm and descending of Fire.
A postpartum woman suffered from the aforementioned syndrome. Someone used Tiao Jing San (Regulate Menstruation Powder), and she recovered but relapsed. Continuing the previous medication worsened the condition, with surging phlegm-saliva and morning chills with evening fevers. I prescribed Ba Zhen San (Eight Treasures Powder) in the morning and Jia Wei Gui Pi Tang (Modified Restore the Spleen Decoction) in the evening. Each was taken for over fifty doses, leading to recovery.
Yun Qi treated postpartum fever with delirious speech and running about, with a deficient and large pulse. Use Si Wu Tang (Four Substances Decoction) plus Chai Hu (Bupleurum Root). (Note: Is it advisable to add Chai Hu when the pulse is deficient? However, treating according to symptoms is acceptable). If ineffective, equal parts of Gan Cao (Licorice Root), Chai Hu (Bupleurum Root), and Sheng Di Huang (Rehmannia Root) can be decocted and taken.
**Tiao Jing San** (Regulate Menstruation Powder): Formula seen in the preceding Delirious Speech section.
**Hu Po San** (Amber Powder): Treats postpartum blood stasis attacking the Heart, causing confusion, delirious speech, and seeing ghosts.
Ingredients: Ren Shen (Ginseng), Fu Shen (Poria Cocos with Wood Removed), Sheng Di Huang (Rehmannia Root), E Jiao (Donkey-hide Gelatin, 7.5 qian each), Zhu Sha (Cinnabar, 5 qian, ground separately), Gan Cao (Licorice Root), Hu Po (Amber), Tie Fen (Iron Powder, ground separately), She Xiang (Musk, ground separately, 1 qian each).
Grind into fine powder. Take 1 qian per dose, mixed with decoction of Gold and Silver.
**Fu Shen San** (Poria Cocos Powder): Treats postpartum Blood-Evil, causing vague mind, inappropriate speech, and restless sleep.
Ingredients: Fu Shen (Poria Cocos with Wood Removed, 1 liang), Ren Shen (Ginseng), Huang Qi (Astragalus Root), Chi Shao (Red Peony Root), Niu Xi (Achyranthes Root), Hu Po (Amber, ground), Long Chi (Dragon Teeth, ground, 7.5 qian each), Sheng Di Huang (Rehmannia Root, 1.5 liang), Gui Xin (Cinnamon Twig Center, 0.5 liang).
Grind into powder. Take 3 qian per dose, decocted in water.
**One Formula**: Treats postpartum blood syncope, mental confusion and mania, vagueness as if seeing ghosts. (All blood-stasis-dispelling herbs are typically aromatic and hot. This formula is neither aromatic nor hot; it is a sacred medicine for cooling, clearing Fire, and dispelling stasis, adapting to the season. Contraindicated for Qi deficiency).
Ingredients: Sheng Yi Mu Cao (Motherwort Herb, fresh, 3 he; roots also acceptable), Sheng Di Huang Zhi (Rehmannia Juice, 2 he), Tong Bian (Child Urine, 1 he), Ji Zi Qing (Egg White, 3 units).
Decoct together for three or four boils. Then add Egg Whites and stir evenly. Take as one dose.
