凡是产后出现寒热往来，每天按时发作，症状类似疟疾的，千万不要用治疗疟疾痰疾的药物来治疗。这是因为气血虚弱导致寒热交替发作，元气衰弱使得外邪容易侵袭。虽然寒冷来时战栗不止，喝热水烤火也不能温暖身体；发热时像被烧烤一样，喝冰水也不能使身体凉爽。有的白天轻晚上重，有的在傍晚时分寒热交作。虽然看到的症状与疟疾相似，但用药必须滋养营血、补益元气，以退去寒热。如果有汗出，应当立即止汗，如使用麻黄根汤等药物。如果只有头部出汗而手脚没有汗，这是孤阳绝阴的危险证候，应当在方剂中加入地黄、当归。如果是感受寒邪导致头痛无汗，适宜在生化汤内加入羌活、防风、莲须、葱头来发散表邪，千万不可当作疟疾治疗以免误人。柴胡汤、青皮饮、常山、草果等方药，都不可使用。

Whenever postpartum patients experience alternating chills and fever (alternating cold and heat) that occur at regular intervals daily, with symptoms resembling malaria (a disease characterized by paroxysms of cold and fever), one must absolutely not treat it with medicines intended for phlegm-type malaria. This is because deficiency of Qi and Blood leads to alternating chills and fever, while weak Yuan Qi (Original Qi) allows external pathogens to invade. Although the patient may shiver intensely when chills come, unable to be warmed even by hot water or fire; and although they may feel as if burning when fever arises, unable to be cooled even by ice water. The pattern may present as milder during the day and heavier at night, or with chills and fever occurring in the late afternoon (Shen hour). Although the observed symptoms resemble those of malaria, the treatment must focus on nourishing Ying (Nutritive) Blood and tonifying Qi to resolve the chills and fever. If sweating occurs, immediate antiperspirant measures are required, such as using Mahuang Gen Tang (Ephedra Root Decoction). If sweating is confined only to the head and does not extend to the hands and feet, this indicates a critical condition of "Lone Yang and Absolute Yin" (severe Yin deficiency with floating Yang); in such cases, Di Huang (Rehmanniae Radix) and Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) should be added to the formula. If the cause is Cold pathogen invasion leading to headache and absence of sweating, it is appropriate to add Qiang Huo (Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix), Fang Feng (Saposhnikoviae Radix), Lian Xu (Nelumbinis Stamen), and Cong Bai (Allii Fistulosi Bulbus) within Sheng Hua Tang (Invigorate the Blood Decoction) to disperse the exterior. One must strictly avoid treating it as malaria to prevent medical error. Chai Hu Tang (Bupleurum Decoction), Qing Pi Yin (Green Tangerine Peel Drink), Chang Shan (Polygalae Tuber), and Cao Guo (Tsaoko Fructus) and other formulas and herbs are all contraindicated.
Mahuang Gen Tang (Ephedra Root Decoction)
Ingredients: Mahuang Gen (Ephedrae Radix et Rhizoma), Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Huang Qi (Astragali Radix), Zhi Gan Cao (Prepared Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix), Gui Zhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus), Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma), Mu Li (Ostreae Concha), Fu Xiao Mai (Tritici Levis Fructus).
In women postpartum suffering from malaria-like illness, where there is sweating on the head but not on the body or feet, if one relies solely on Ginseng tonics without including sufficient blood-nourishing herbs, the condition is often incurable.
Zirong Yiqi Fuzheng Tang (Nourish Blood and Tonify Qi to Support Righteousness Decoction): Treats postpartum alternating chills and fever with sweating, occurring regularly every afternoon.
Ingredients: Chuan Xiong (Ligusticum Chuanxiong Rhizoma) (1 qian), Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) (2 qian), Zhi Cao (Prepared Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (0.5 qian), Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix) (2 qian), Sheng Di Huang (Raw Rehmanniae Radix) and Shu Di Huang (Cooked Rehmanniae Radix) (2 qian each), Huang Qi (Astragali Radix) (1 qian), Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) (0.4 qian, white pith removed), Mai Dong (Ophiopogonis Radix) (1 qian), Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma) (1.5 qian), Mahuang Gen (Ephedrae Radix et Rhizoma) (1.5 qian).
At night, take Liuwei Dihuang Wan (Six-Ingredient Pill with Rehmannia), 70–80 pills per dose, taken with clear water.
Jiajian Yangwei Tang (Modified Stomach-Nourishing Decoction): Treats postpartum alternating chills and fever, headache, absence of sweating, and malaria-like symptoms.

Administration: Use fresh ginger as a guide.
If Phlegm is present, add Zhu Li (Bambusae Succus), Jiang Zhi (Zingiberis Recens Juice), and Ban Xia Qu (Pinelliae Fermentatum). For weak constitutions, concurrently administer He Che Wan (Placenta Humanum Pill).
For prolonged postpartum malaria with no sweating and non-resolution, concurrently decoct Ba Zhu Ren Shen Gao (Atractylodes and Ginseng Paste) to assist the medicinal efficacy.
