泄泻，病因主要有湿邪、火邪、气虚、痰积。湿邪所致者，用四苓散加苍术；病情严重者，将白术与苍术同加，炒制后使用以燥湿兼渗利水湿；火邪所致者，用四苓散加木通、黄芩，以清火并通利小便；痰积所致者宜豁痰，用海粉、青黛、黄芩，以神曲糊为丸服用。病位在上者用吐法提引，病位在下陷者宜升提，用升麻、防风；气虚者，用人参、白术、炒芍药、升麻；食积者，用二陈汤合泽泻、苍术、白术、山楂、神曲、川芎，或吞服保和丸；泻下水样便多者，仍用五苓散；久病导致大肠气虚滑脱者，用熟地黄半两，炒白芍、知母各三钱，升麻、干姜各二钱，炙甘草一钱，研为末，以粥为丸服用。同时用艾炷如麦粒大小，在百会穴灸三壮。脾虚泄泻应当补益脾气，使健运功能恢复正常，用炒白术四两，炒神曲三两，炒芍药三两半，冬季及初春时节，用肉豆蔻替代（白术），或作散剂或汤剂，做成饼子服用效果更佳。食积导致的泄泻，适宜再次攻下，用神曲、大黄制成丸子服用。脾泄日久，大肠失禁，这是脾气已脱，应当紧急固涩，用赤石脂、肉豆蔻、干姜之类药物。
戴元礼说：凡是泻下水样便，腹部不痛的，是湿邪；饮食入胃留不住，或者完谷不化的，是气虚；腹痛且泻下水样便，肠鸣，痛一阵泻一阵的，是火邪；或者有时泻有时不泻，或多或少，是痰积；腹痛剧烈而腹泻，泻后疼痛减轻的，是……（原文此处有缺漏，据上下文推测可能指某种特定证型，但依规则不增添内容，故略去未译部分或视为原文中断）。
有一位老人奉养过度，饮食损伤脾胃，常常泄泻，这也是脾泄。

Diarrhea is caused by dampness, fire, qi deficiency, and phlegm accumulation. For dampness, Si Ling San (Four-Poria Decoction) is used with added Cang Zhu (Atractylodis Rhizoma); for severe cases, Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma) and Cang Zhu are added together and stir-fried to dry dampness and promote diuresis. For fire, Si Ling San is used with added Mu Tong (Akebiae Caulis) and Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix) to clear fire and benefit urination. For phlegm accumulation, it should be resolved using Hai Fen (Halloysitum Rubrum), Qing Dai (Indici Folium), and Huang Qin, formed into pills with Shen Qu (Medicated Leaven). For lesions in the upper jiao, emesis is used to lift; for sinking in the lower jiao, lifting is appropriate, using Sheng Ma (Cimicifugae Rhizoma) and Fang Feng (Saposhnikoviae Radix). For qi deficiency, Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma), Bai Zhu, Chao Shao Yao (Stir-fried Paeoniae Radix Alba), and Sheng Ma are used. For food stagnation, Er Chen Tang (Two-Cured Decoction) is combined with Ze Xie (Alismatis Rhizoma), Cang Zhu, Bai Zhu, Shan Zha (Crataegi Fructus), Shen Qu, and Chuan Xiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), or Bao He Wan (Preserve Harmony Pill) is swallowed. For profuse watery diarrhea, Wu Ling San (Five-Ingredient Powder with Poria) is still used. For chronic illness causing laxity of large intestine qi, Shu Di Huang (Rehmanniae Radix Preparata) half liang, Chao Shao Yao and Zhi Mu (Anemarrhenae Rhizoma) each three qian, Sheng Ma and Gan Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma) each two qian, and Zhi Gan Cao (Prepared Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) one qian are ground into powder and taken as porridge pills. Additionally, moxa cones the size of wheat grains are applied to Bai Hui (GV20) acupoint for three moxibustion units. Spleen deficiency diarrhea requires tonifying spleen qi to restore normal transportation and transformation functions: use Chao Bai Zhu four liang, Chao Shen Qu three liang, and Chao Shao Yao three and a half liang. In winter and early spring, Rou Dou Kou (Myristicae Semen) replaces Bai Zhu; taken as powder or decoction, forming cakes is particularly effective. For diarrhea due to food stagnation, purging is suitable; Shen Qu and Da Huang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma) are made into pills. For long-standing spleen diarrhea with large intestine incontinence, indicating spleen qi collapse, urgent astringency is needed using Chi Shi Zhi (Halloysitum Rubrum), Rou Dou Kou, Gan Jiang, etc.
Dai Yun stated: Whenever there is watery diarrhea without abdominal pain, it is dampness; when food stays in the stomach without being retained, or passes undigested, it is qi deficiency; when there is abdominal pain with watery diarrhea and borborygmus, pain comes in waves followed by diarrhea, it is fire; when diarrhea is intermittent and variable in amount, it is phlegm; when abdominal pain is severe during diarrhea and relieved after defecation, it is... [text incomplete].
An elderly person who overindulged in nourishment suffered from dietary injury to the spleen and stomach, resulting in frequent diarrhea, which is also spleen deficiency diarrhea.
Formula: Huang Qin (stir-fried, half liang), Bai Zhu (stir-fried, two liang), Shao Yao (stir-fried with wine), Ban Xia (each one liang, soaked), Shen Qu (stir-fried), Shan Zha (stir-fried, each one and a half liang).
Grind the above into powder, wrap in fresh green lotus leaves with cooked rice, mash, and form pills the size of mulberry seeds. Take before meals with plain warm water.
Another seventy-year-old elderly person had a white complexion, wiry and rapid pulse, but only the stomach pulse was deep and slippery. Due to drinking white wine, he developed dysentery, passing pale pus and blood, with abdominal pain and urinary retention.
Two days prior, all symptoms subsided except for difficult urination. Yi Yuan San (Benefit Primordial Powder) was administered, and he stabilized.
Treatment for painful diarrhea:
Chao Bai Zhu (three liang), Chao Shao Yao (two liang), Chao Chen Pi (one and a half liang), Fang Feng (one liang).
For chronic diarrhea, add Sheng Ma six qian. Cut the herbs. Divide into eight doses, decoct in water or take as pills.
Anti-diarrheal Formula: Jiang Qu Wan (Ginger and Medicated Leaven Pill)
Old wheat flour for making medicated leaven (two liang, stir-fried. Another one liang), Huixiang (Foeniculi Fructus) (five qian), Sheng Jiang (Fresh Ginger) (two liang, another one liang).
Grind into powder or make into pills. Take five to seven qian per dose with plain warm water.
Another formula:
Rou Dou Kou (five liang), Hua Shi (Talcum) (summer two and a half liang, autumn two liang, spring and winter one and a quarter liang).
Grind into powder, form pills with rice. Or mix with water and take.
Qing Liu Wan (Clear Six Pills): Clears damp-heat from the Triple Burner, treats diarrhea often used together with Qing Hua Wan (Transform Phlegm Pill), not used alone. Also treats postpartum abdominal pain or spontaneous diarrhea. Tonifies spleen and blood, also treats bloody dysentery.
Liu Yi San (Six-to-One Powder) (one batch), Hong Qu (Red Yeast Rice) (stir-fried, half liang, invigorates blood. Alternatively two and a half liang).
Grind into powder, form pills with rice the size of mulberry seeds. Take fifty to seventy pills per dose with plain warm water.
Another formula: Treats diarrhea or vomiting.
Take Liu Yi San mixed with Sheng Jiang juice and decocted water.
[Appendix] Cold diarrhea: Cold qi in the abdomen causes stabbing pain, profuse watery stools, borborygmus, and inability to digest rice drink. Use Li Zhong Tang (Regulate the Middle Decoction) or swallow Da Yi Han Wan (Great Warmth Pill).
Restlessness and thirst, difficult urination: Use Wu Ling San, swallow Xiang Lian Wan (Fragrant Coptis Pill). Damp diarrhea results from sitting/lying in damp places, injuring the spleen with dampness, earth failing to control water. Common during plum rains and prolonged cloudy weather. Use Chu Shi Tang (Remove Dampness Decoction), swallow Wu Ji Wan (Five-Elderly Pill), assisted by Wei Ling Tang (Stomach-Poria Decoction). Severe cases use Shu Fu Tang (Aconite and Atractylodes Decoction). Food stagnation diarrhea: caused by excessive eating damaging spleen qi, leading to diarrhea. The patient likely has belching smelling like rotten eggs. Use Zhi Zhong Tang (Regulate the Middle Decoction) plus Sha Ren (Amomi Fructus) half qian, or swallow Ying Gan Wan (Responsive Pill) is more appropriate. Long-term spleen qi deficiency unable to accept food: borborygmus and abdominal urgency immediately after eating, expelling all ingested food brings relief; no symptoms if fasting. Commonly called "Lu Shi Xie" (Official Salary Diarrhea), persisting for years. Use Kuai Pi Wan (Quick Spleen Pill) three to five pills. Alcohol-induced diarrhea occurring every morning upon waking: Use Li Zhong Tang plus Ge Gen (Puerariae Lobatae Radix), or swallow Jiu Zhu Huang Lian Wan (Wine-Steamed Coptis Pill). Flour-induced diarrhea: Use Yang Wei Tang (Nourish Stomach Decoction) plus Luo Bo Zi (Brassicae Semina) one qian (stir-fried, crushed). If painful, add Mu Xiang (Aucklandiae Radix) half qian. If diarrhea is severe, remove Huo Xiang (Agastaches Herba), add Pao Jiang (Prepared Ginger) half qian. Daily early morning profuse diarrhea unresponsive to anti-diarrheals: Take Wu Wei Wan (Schisandra Pill) with rice drink, or decoct Wu Wei Zi (Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus) alone; also treats spleen-kidney diarrhea. Even if symptoms subside with dietary restriction, if symptoms cease during the day but recur near 5 AM, the disease is in the kidney, commonly called spleen-kidney diarrhea. Take Er Shen Wan (Two-Spirit Pill) or Jiao Po Wan (Pepper and Magnolia Bark Pill) with divided water, or Ping Wei San (Peace the Stomach Powder) with Xiao Hui Xiang Wan (Small Fennel Pill). Chronic and severe cases with extreme deficiency: Use Jiao Fu Tang (Pepper and Aconite Decoction). Summer heat diarrhea due to summer heat: Use Wei Ling Tang or Wu Ling San, adding Che Qian Zi (Plantaginis Semen) powder slightly is very effective. Secular practice often uses astringents for dysentery and diarrhea. If chronic and deficient, this might be permissible; for acute onset, it will surely transform into other diseases, causing significant harm. It is unknown that most cases are due to dampness; promoting urination to separate fluids is the best approach.
