生长在上谷川谷及冤句地区。四月、五月采集根部，阴干。（畏螵蛸、桔梗、茯苓、萆薢。）
陶隐居说：附近各地都有，以蜀地产的为优良。俗称为白羊藓（音同“仙”），气味确实像羊膻味，所以有时也叫白膻。
《唐本草》注解说：这种药的叶子像茱萸，苗高一尺多，根皮白色且中心坚实，花呈紫白色。根部适宜二月采集。如果在四月、五月采集，就会变得空虚恶劣。臣禹锡等人谨按《药性论》记载：白藓皮，属臣药。治疗各种热毒风邪，恶风，风疮疥癣红肿溃烂，眉毛头发脱落脆弱，皮肤肌肉紧绷，壮热恶寒，对于解除热黄、酒黄、急黄、谷黄、劳黄等病症效果良好。日华子说：通利关节，通畅九窍及血脉，以及所有风痹，筋骨虚弱乏力，通利小肠水气，治疗天行时疾（流行性传染病），头痛眼疼。根皮疗效好。花的功效与根皮相同，也可以作为蔬菜食用。又名金雀儿椒。
《图经本草》说：白藓，生长在上谷川谷及冤句，现在的河中、江宁府、滁州、润州也有出产。苗高一尺多，茎青色，叶子稍白像槐树，也像茱萸。四月开淡紫色花，像小蜀葵。根像蔓菁，皮黄白色且中心坚实。四月、五月采集根部，阴干使用。又说：适宜二月采集，太晚采集则药效空虚恶劣。其气味完全像羊膻味，所以俗称白羊鲜，又名地羊膻，又名金爵儿椒。它的嫩苗，山中人把它当作蔬菜食用。葛洪治疗老鼠钻入耳朵已有伤口，脓血流出的情况，用白藓皮煮汁服用一升，应当吐出鼠仔才能痊愈。李《兵部手集方》：治疗肺嗽，有白藓皮汤方，非常奇妙。
Bai Xian (Dictamni Cortex)
Taste: bitter, salty. Nature: cold. Toxicity: non-toxic. Indications: Head wind (headache caused by wind pathogen), jaundice, cough with reverse flow of qi, strangury (painful and dribbling urination), swelling and pain in the female genitalia, damp-bi syndrome causing necrosis of muscles and skin, inability to flex and extend limbs, difficulty in walking; treats restlessness of the four limbs, high fever in the abdomen during epidemic febrile diseases accompanied by thirst, desire to run and shout, pediatric convulsions and epilepsy, residual pain after childbirth in women.
Habitat: Grows in Chuan Valley of Shanggu and Yuanju. Harvest time: Roots are collected in April and May and dried in the shade. Incompatibilities: Avoid Mantis Egg Case (Pi Xiao), Platycodon Root (Jie Geng), Poria (Fu Ling), and Dioscorea Hypoglauca Rhizome (Bi Xie).
Tao Hongjing stated: It is found everywhere near the capital, but those from Shu are considered superior. Commonly called Bai Yang Xian (pronounced "Xian"), its odor resembles that of mutton fat (shan), hence sometimes named Bai Shan.
The Annotation of the Tang Materia Medica notes: The leaves resemble Cornus officinalis fruit (Zhu Yu); the seedlings grow over a chi tall; the root bark is white and the center is solid; the flowers are purple-white. The root should be harvested in February. If harvested in April or May, it becomes hollow and inferior. Ministers Yu Xi et al., according to the Treatise on the Properties of Medicinals, state: Dictamni Cortex is a subordinate herb. It treats all kinds of heat-toxin wind pathogens, aversion to wind, wind sores, scabies, tinea with redness and ulceration, brittle hair and eyebrows falling out, tight skin and muscles, severe fever with aversion to cold. It is excellent for resolving various types of jaundice such as heat jaundice, wine jaundice, acute jaundice, grain jaundice, and consumptive jaundice. Ri Huazi stated: It unblocks joints, benefits the nine orifices and blood vessels, treats all wind-bi syndromes, weak sinews and bones, promotes diuresis for water accumulation in the small intestine, and treats epidemic febrile diseases, headache, and eye pain. The root bark is effective. The flower has the same efficacy and can also be eaten as a vegetable. It is also known as Jin Que Er Jiao.
The Illustrations of Materia Medica states: Bai Xian grows in Chuan Valley of Shanggu and Yuanju; it is now also produced in Hezhong, Jiangning Prefecture, Chuzhou, and Runzhou. The seedlings grow over a chi tall; the stem is green; the leaves are slightly white like Sophora japonica leaves, resembling Cornus officinalis fruit. It blooms pale purple flowers in April, resembling small Hibiscus mutabilis. The root resembles Raphanus sativus, with yellowish-white bark and a solid center. Roots are collected in April and May and dried in the shade. It is also noted that harvesting in February is preferable; harvesting too late results in hollow and inferior quality. Its odor completely resembles mutton fat, hence commonly called Bai Yang Xian, also known as Di Yang Shan, and Jin Jue Er Jiao. Its seedlings are used as vegetables by mountain dwellers. Ge Hong treated cases of rats burrowing into ears with wounds and discharging pus and blood by administering one sheng of decoction made from Dictamni Cortex, which would cause the rat pup to be vomited out, leading to recovery. Li's Manual of Military Department Prescriptions: For treating lung cough, there is a formula of Dictamni Decoction, which is very effective.
