大黄四两(用清酒浸泡) 甘草二两(炙烤) 芒硝半升
以上三味药,切碎,用水三升,煮取一升药液,滤去药渣,加入芒硝,再次上火微煮至沸腾,少量多次温服。
“调胃承气”的名称,是因为甘草能缓和芒硝和大黄的药性,使其在胃肠中停留以泄除热邪,所以称为“调胃”,并非因为厌恶硝、黄损伤胃气而使用甘草。
桃仁五十个(去皮尖) 桂枝二两(去皮) 大黄四两(去皮) 芒硝二两 甘草二两
以上五味药,用水七升,煮取二升半药液,滤去药渣,加入芒硝,再次上火微沸,停药后于饭前温服。

以上三味药,用水六升,先煮栝蒌取三升药液,滤去药渣,加入其他药物,煮取二升药液,滤去药渣,分三次温服。
结胸证,按压时才感到疼痛的,说明邪气在脉络之中。所以小陷胸汤只能陷除脉络中的邪气,从无形的气机层面消散。
栝蒌生于蔓草……(原文此处有残缺/乱码)趋向少阴,陷入脉络,所以名为“小”。
大黄六两(去皮) 芒硝一升 甘遂一钱匕
以上三味药,用水六升,先煮大黄取二升药液,滤去药渣,加入芒硝煮一二沸,再加入甘遂末,温服一升药液。若得快速通便,则停服后面的药。

Rhizoma et Radix Rhei (Dahuang, 大黄) four liang (soaked in clear wine), Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata (Zhigancao, 炙甘草) two liang, Natrii Sulfas (Mangxiao, 芒硝) half sheng.
The above three ingredients are cut into pieces, boiled in three sheng of water to obtain one sheng of decoction, the dregs are removed, Natrii Sulfas is added, and it is brought to a slight boil again over fire. It should be taken warm in small amounts frequently.
"Tiaowei Chengqi Tang" (Regulate the Stomach and Inherit Qi Decoction) is named so because Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata moderates the effects of Rhizoma et Radix Rhei and Natrii Sulfas, allowing them to remain in the middle jiao to drain heat; thus it is called "Regulating the Stomach." It is not used because one fears that Natrii Sulfas and Rhizoma et Radix Rhei will damage the stomach qi by using Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata. [Text fragment: Draining out the stomach... Natrii Sulfas]
Semen Persicae (Taoren, 桃仁) fifty seeds (skin and tips removed), Ramulus Cinnamomi (Guizhi, 桂枝) two liang (bark removed), Rhizoma et Radix Rhei (Dahuang, 大黄) four liang (skin removed), Natrii Sulfas (Mangxiao, 芒硝) two liang, Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata (Zhigancao, 炙甘草) two liang.
The above five ingredients are boiled in seven sheng of water to obtain two and a half sheng of decoction, the dregs are removed, Natrii Sulfas is added, and it is brought to a slight boil again over fire. After removing from fire, take warm before meals.
Taoren Chengqi Tang treats cases where the heat binding of the Taiyang stage has resolved, but blood stasis re-condenses at the pivot of the Shaoyang stage. One must attack the blood stasis to unblock the Yin, so that Yin qi can ascend. The primary herbs are Rhizoma et Radix Rhei and Natrii Sulfas... [Text fragment: Heat]
Fructus Trichosanthis (Gualou, 瓜蒌) one large fruit, Radix Coptidis (Huanglian, 黄连) one liang, Rhizoma Pinelliae Preparata (Banxia, 半夏) half sheng (washed).
The above three ingredients are boiled in six sheng of water. First, boil Fructus Trichosanthis to obtain three sheng, remove the dregs, add the other herbs, and boil to obtain two sheng. Remove the dregs and divide into three warm doses.
In Jie Xiong (Chest Binding) syndrome, pain occurs only upon palpation, indicating the pathogen is in the collaterals. Therefore, Xiao Xianxiong Tang (Minor Chest-Penetrating Decoction) only penetrates the pathogen in the collaterals, dispersing it through the formless Qi mechanism. Fructus Trichosanthis grows on creeping vines... [Text fragment: Approaching Shaoyin, penetrating collaterals, hence named "Small".]
Rhizoma et Radix Rhei (Dahuang, 大黄) six liang (skin removed), Natrii Sulfas (Mangxiao, 芒硝) one sheng, Radix Kansui (Gansui, 甘遂) one qianbi.
The above three ingredients are boiled in six sheng of water. First, boil Rhizoma et Radix Rhei to obtain two sheng, remove the dregs, add Natrii Sulfas and boil for one or two boils, then add powdered Radix Kansui. Take one sheng warm. If rapid purgation occurs, stop taking the remaining medicine.
Da Xianxiong Tang (Major Chest-Penetrating Decoction) resolves both the有形 (form-solid) filth between the chest/diaphragm and the intestines/stomach simultaneously. The symptoms manifest as hardness, fullness, and severe pain from the epigastrium down to the lower abdomen, which cannot be touched. The pathogen is no longer confined to a single meridian...
