庞曰∶少阴病脉沉，不知何沉也，且沉紧发汗则动经，沉数为病在里，不可发汗。详此脉或沉
而濡，或沉而微，是表中寒而里不消，脉应里而发热在表，故以小辛之药，温散而微微取汗也。
少阴病，吐利，手足不逆冷，发热者不死；脉不至者，灸少阴七壮。（太溪穴在内踝后跟骨上
动脉陷中。言发热者，谓其身发热也。）
少阴病，吐利，烦躁四逆者，死。（烦躁者，内烦躁也。与茱萸汤证，宜细审其生死也。）

脉象寸关尺三部都呈现沉细的，是太阴经受邪所致。通常在发病后第四五天出现，因为太阴经脉散布在胃中，联络咽喉，所以会出现腹部胀满和咽喉干燥的症状，适宜用大承气汤来攻下。（方剂见“可下证”章节。）
太阴病的主要表现是：腹部胀满且呕吐，饮食难以下咽，腹泻逐渐加重，时常感到腹部自发性疼痛。如果误用攻下法，必然导致胸膈下方结块硬痛。如果是自发性腹泻且不口渴的，属于太阴病，这是因为脏腑内有寒邪的缘故。（应当采用温里法，使用四逆汤之类的方剂。）
伤寒发病三天，太阳经的脉象变弱；到了第四天，太阴经的脉象变大。（如果脉象大而伴有胸部胀满、痰多症状的，适宜用涌吐法；没有这些症状的，适宜用发汗法。）
伤寒脉象浮缓（也属于脉大的范畴），手足自然温暖的，病位关联太阴。如果小便不通利，必定会出现发黄的症状；（可用五苓散加茵陈治疗。）如果小便通利，就不会发黄。到了第七八天，虽然突然烦躁并每天腹泻十几次，但腹泻必定会自行停止，这是因为脾家正气恢复（脾家实），体内腐败秽浊之物应当排出的缘故，可用橘皮汤治疗。
五苓茵陈汤
用茵陈浓煎成汤，调服五苓散二钱，每日服用三到四次，待黄疸从小便排出，以小便清澈为痊愈标准。
橘皮汤
橘皮（一两） 生姜（二两）
切碎，用水一升半，煎至七合，去渣，分两次服用，稍热时小口慢饮，若未痊愈再煎服。
原本患太阳病，医生反而用了攻下法，因此导致腹部胀满、时常疼痛的，属于太阴病，用桂枝芍药汤治疗。
桂枝（一两半） 芍药（三两） 甘草（一两） 大枣（六枚） 生姜（一两半）
切碎，用水三升，煮取一升半，去渣，每次温服一盏，每日三次。（注云：小建中汤不用饴糖，所以芍药为君药，既能止痛又能驱除邪气。）
脉象寸关尺三部都呈现沉的，是少阴经受邪所致。通常在发病后第五六天出现，因为少阴经脉贯穿肾脏，联络肺部，系连舌根，所以会出现口腔干燥、舌干且口渴的症状，用大承气汤攻下。（方剂见“可下证”章节。）
少阴病，刚得病时，反而发热，脉象沉的，用麻黄细辛附子汤治疗。
麻黄（二两） 细辛（二两） 附子（一枚）
切碎，用水三升，先煮麻黄十几沸，去掉上面的沫，加入其他药物，煮取一升，去渣。每次温服一盏，每日三次。
少阴病，得病二三天，用麻黄附子甘草汤微微发汗，因为得病二三天没有阳证，所以要微微发汗。（意思是初得病二三天，常见少阴证，如果没有阳证，必须发小汗。）
麻黄（二两） 甘草（二两） 附子（一枚）
切碎，用水三升，先煮麻黄十几沸，去掉上面的沫，加入其他药物，煮取一升半，去渣。每次温服一盏，每日三次。
庞安石说：少阴病脉沉，不知道具体是怎样的沉，况且沉紧脉若发汗则会扰动经络，沉数脉表示病在里，不可发汗。仔细推敲此处的脉象或是沉而濡软，或是沉而微弱，这是表有寒邪而里没有消解，脉象反映在里但发热在表，所以用小辛味的药物，温散并微微取汗。
少阴病，呕吐腹泻，手足不逆冷，发热的，不会死亡；如果摸不到脉搏的，灸少阴穴七壮。（太溪穴在内踝后方跟骨上方的动脉凹陷处。所说的发热，是指身体发热。）
少阴病，呕吐腹泻，烦躁且四肢厥冷的，预后不良（死症）。（烦躁是指内部烦躁。这与茱萸汤证的鉴别，需要仔细审察其生死预后的区别。）
少阴病，恶寒且疲倦（居员切），时时自我烦扰，不喜欢穿厚衣服，适宜用大柴胡汤。（方剂见“可下证”章节。）
少阴病四肢厥冷，恶寒且自身疲倦，脉搏摸不到且呕吐腹泻，烦躁的，预后不良（死症）。（再次详细审定这种情况。）
少阴病腹泻，腹泻停止却头晕目眩，时常感觉头昏蒙的，预后不良（死症）。（这本来应该是少阳病出现的头昏蒙出汗，脉象匀小浮的才会生还。少阴病没有眩晕头昏的症状。）
少阴病，脉象微细沉，只想睡觉，出汗且不烦躁，自己想吐，到了第五六天出现自发性腹泻，又烦躁，无法躺卧睡眠的，预后不良（死症）。
少阴病，得病二三天以上，心中烦乱，无法躺卧睡眠的，用黄连阿胶汤治疗。
黄连（一两） 黄芩（一分） 芍药（一分） 鸡子黄（半枚） 阿胶（炙烤，三分，研末）
用水二升，先煮前三味药，取一升，去渣，加入阿胶使其完全溶化，稍凉后，加入鸡蛋黄，搅拌混合均匀，温服一盏，每日三四次。
少阴病，腹泻排出清水，颜色纯清，心下部必定疼痛，口腔干燥的，用大承气汤攻下。（方剂见“可下证”章节。）
少阴病，呕吐腹泻，手足冰冷，烦躁欲死的，用茱萸汤治疗。
茱萸（一两半，热水洗三遍） 人参（三分） 生姜（一两半） 大枣（三个）
用水三升半，煮取一升半，去渣。每次温服一盏，每日三次。
少阴病，咽喉痛的，用桔梗甘草汤治疗。
桔梗（半两） 甘草（一两）
切碎，用水一升，煎至半升，去渣，分三次服用，细细吞咽。
另外半夏散也能治疗。
半夏（热水洗七遍） 桂枝（去皮） 甘草（炙烤）
以上各等分，分别捣碎筛过，混合在一起。每次服三钱，用水一盏半，煎至八分，冷热适量，慢慢吞咽。
少阴病，腹泻完谷不化，里有寒外有热，手足厥冷，脉象微弱几乎摸不到，身体反而不恶寒，病人面色发红，或者腹痛，或者干呕，或者咽喉痛，或者腹泻停止但脉搏不出来的，用通脉四逆汤治疗。
甘草（一两） 附子（大的半个，体质强壮的人加半个。） 干姜（三分，体质强壮的人加一两半）
切碎，用水三升，煎至一升，去渣，每次温服一盏，每日三四次。若未痊愈，立即再煎一剂，不可做成煮散剂。
如果脉象连续不断出现的是痊愈，如果突然暴出的是死亡。面色发红的，加带须葱四茎，去掉青色部分；腹痛的，去掉葱加芍药一两；呕吐的加生姜一两；咽喉痛的去掉芍药加桔梗半两；腹泻停止脉搏不出来的，去掉桔梗加人参半两。病情与方剂都相应的，才给予服用。
少阴病，腹泻六七天，咳嗽且呕吐口渴，心烦无法入睡的，适宜用猪苓汤。
猪苓 茯苓 泽泻 滑石 阿胶（各半两）
切碎，用水二升，先煮前四味药取一升，去渣，加入阿胶末使其完全溶化，每次温服一盏。
少阴病，腹泻咽喉痛，胸部胀满心烦的，用猪肤汤治疗。
猪肤（半斤）
用水五升，煮取二升半，去渣，加入白蜜半升，米粉二合半，熬香调和均匀，每次温服一盏，每日三四次。
少阴病，四肢厥冷，其中有的人咳嗽，或者心悸，或者小便不利，或者腹痛，或者泄泻伴有肛门重坠感的，用四逆散治疗。
甘草 枳实 柴胡 芍药（各五分）
捣碎筛成细末，用米汤调和，每次服一方寸匕，每日三次。咳嗽的加五味子、干姜（炮制），各二分半，同时也主治腹泻；心悸的，加桂枝二分半；小便不利的，加赤茯苓二分半；腹痛的，加附子一个，炮制，去皮脐；泄泻伴有肛门重坠感的，先用三升水，煮薤白一升半，取二升，去渣，用方寸匕的药散，用薤白汤一盏，煎至八分，每日三四次。
When the pulse at the cun, guan, and chi positions is both deep (Chen) and fine (Xi), it indicates that the Taiyin meridian is affected. This typically manifests on the fourth or fifth day of onset. Since the Taiyin meridian spreads through the stomach and connects to the throat, symptoms include abdominal fullness and dryness of the throat. The appropriate treatment is Dachengqi Tang (Major Order the Qi Decoction) to purge downward. (The formula is detailed in the section on "Indications for Purging".)
Taiyin disease is characterized by abdominal fullness and vomiting, inability to eat, worsening spontaneous diarrhea, and occasional spontaneous abdominal pain. If purgatives are incorrectly used, it will inevitably lead to hardness and binding below the chest. Spontaneous diarrhea without thirst belongs to Taiyin, caused by cold in the zang organs. (Treatment should involve warming methods, using formulas such as Sini Tang.)
In Shanghan (Cold Damage) disease, on the third day, the Shaoyang pulse becomes weak; by the fourth day, the Taiyin pulse becomes large. (If the pulse is large accompanied by chest fullness and profuse phlegm, emesis is indicated; if these symptoms are absent, diaphoresis is indicated.)
In Shanghan disease, if the pulse is floating and slow (also a variation of a large pulse) and the hands and feet are naturally warm, the disease is associated with Taiyin. If urination is difficult, jaundice will certainly develop; (Wuling San plus Yinchen should be administered.) If urination is free, jaundice will not develop. By the seventh or eighth day, although there may be sudden irritability and frequent diarrhea (more than ten times a day), the diarrhea will stop spontaneously because the spleen's qi is restored (Shijia Shi) and the putrid filth is being expelled. Jupi Tang should be administered.
Wuling Yichen Tang
Decoct Yinchen (Artemisiae Scopariae Herba) thickly to make a decoction, mix with two qian of Wuling San, and take three to four times daily. Continue until the urine clears, indicating the resolution of jaundice via urination.
Jupi Tang
Jupi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, 1 liang) Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, 2 liang)
Finely chop, add one sheng and half of water, decoct to seven he, remove dregs, and divide into two doses. Sip while slightly warm. If not cured, prepare another dose.
Originally suffering from Taiyang disease, if the physician erroneously uses purgation, leading to abdominal fullness and intermittent pain, this belongs to Taiyin. Guizhi Shaoyao Tang should be administered.
Guizhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus, 1.5 liang) Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix Alba, 3 liang) Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, 1 liang) Dazao (Ziziphi Jujubae Fructus, 6 pieces) Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, 1.5 liang)
Chop, add three sheng of water, decoct to obtain one sheng and half, remove dregs, and take one wan warm, three times daily. (Note: Xiao Jianzhong Tang does not use Yitang, so Shaoyao serves as the sovereign herb to relieve pain and expel pathogens.)
When the pulse at all three positions is deep, it indicates that the Shaoyin meridian is affected. This typically manifests on the fifth or sixth day. Since the Shaoyin meridian passes through the kidney, connects to the lung, and ties to the root of the tongue, symptoms include dry mouth, dry tongue, and thirst. Dachengqi Tang should be used to purge downward. (The formula is detailed in the section on "Indications for Purging".)
Shaoyin disease is characterized by a faint and fine pulse and a desire to sleep.
Shaoyin disease with wind-strike, where the yang pulse is faint and the yin pulse is floating, indicates impending recovery.
For any Shaoyin disease presenting with SiNi (cold extremities), warming methods should be employed.
In Shaoyin disease, if upon initial onset there is fever despite a deep pulse, Mahuang Xixin Fuzi Tang should be administered.
Mahuang (Ephedrae Herba, 2 liang) Xixin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma, 2 liang) Fuzi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata, 1 piece)
Chop, add three sheng of water, first boil Mahuang for several boils, skim off the foam, add other herbs, decoct to obtain one sheng, remove dregs, and take one wan warm, three times daily.
In Shaoyin disease, after two or three days, Mahuang Fuzi Gancao Tang should be used to induce slight sweating. This is because there are no Yang syndrome manifestations after two or three days, requiring mild diaphoresis. (This means that in the first two or three days, when Shaoyin symptoms are common and Yang signs are absent, mild sweating is necessary.)
Mahuang (Ephedrae Herba, 2 liang) Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, 2 liang) Fuzi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata, 1 piece)
Chop, add three sheng of water, first boil Mahuang for several boils, skim off the foam, add other herbs, decoct to obtain one sheng and half, remove dregs, and take one wan warm, three times daily.
Pang Anshi stated: Regarding the deep pulse in Shaoyin disease, one must determine the specific quality. A deep-tight pulse contraindicates diaphoresis as it disturbs the meridians; a deep-rapid pulse indicates interior pathology, also contraindicating diaphoresis. Careful examination reveals the pulse may be deep and soggy or deep and faint. This indicates exterior cold with unresolved interior conditions, where the pulse reflects interior involvement but fever is present at the exterior. Therefore, acrid-warm herbs are used to disperse cold and induce slight sweating.
In Shaoyin disease, if there is vomiting and diarrhea, but the hands and feet are not cold, and there is fever, the prognosis is good (not fatal). If the pulse is imperceptible, moxa should be applied to the Shaoyin point (Taixi) seven moxibustion cones. (Taixi is located in the depression anterior to the medial malleolus and posterior to the tibialis posterior artery. "Fever" here refers to body heat.)
In Shaoyin disease, if there is vomiting, diarrhea, restlessness, and cold extremities, the prognosis is poor (fatal). (Restlessness here refers to internal agitation. This must be carefully distinguished from Zhuyu Tang patterns to assess prognosis.)
In Shaoyin disease, if there is aversion to cold, fatigue, periodic internal irritability, and a dislike for heavy clothing, Da Chaihu Tang should be used. (The formula is detailed in the section on "Indications for Purging".)
In Shaoyin disease, if there are cold extremities, aversion to cold, fatigue, an imperceptible pulse, vomiting, diarrhea, and restlessness, the prognosis is poor (fatal). (This situation requires careful re-evaluation.)
In Shaoyin disease, if diarrhea stops but is followed by vertigo and periodic syncope/dizziness, the prognosis is poor (fatal). (Vertigo and sweating with a small, floating, even pulse are characteristic of Shaoyang disease and indicate survival. Shaoyin disease does not typically present with vertigo or syncope.)
In Shaoyin disease, if after six or seven days the breathing is shallow and rapid (Xi Gao), the prognosis is poor (fatal).
In Shaoyin disease, if the pulse is faint, fine, and deep, the patient desires to sleep, sweats without irritability, feels like vomiting, and then develops spontaneous diarrhea, further irritability, and insomnia by the fifth or sixth day, the prognosis is poor (fatal).
In Shaoyin disease, if after two or more days there is mental restlessness and inability to sleep, Huanglian Ejiao Tang should be administered.
Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma, 1 liang) Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix, 1 fen) Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix Alba, 1 fen) Jizihuang (Gallic Ovipsum, half a piece) Ejiao (Colla Corii Asini, 3 fen, calcined and powdered)
Add two sheng of water, decoct the first three herbs to obtain one sheng, remove dregs, dissolve Ejiao completely, let cool slightly, add the egg yolk, stir well, and take one wan warm, three to four times daily.
In Shaoyin disease, if there is diarrhea of clear watery stool, pure clear color, pain in the epigastrium, and dry mouth, Dachengqi Tang should be used to purge downward. (The formula is detailed in the section on "Indications for Purging".)
In Shaoyin disease, if there is vomiting, diarrhea, cold extremities, and severe restlessness, Zhuyu Tang should be administered.
Zhuyu (Euodiae Fructus, 1.5 liang, washed three times with hot water) Renshen (Ginseng Radix, 3 fen) Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, 1.5 liang) Dazao (Ziziphi Jujubae Fructus, 3 pieces)
Add three sheng and half of water, decoct to obtain one sheng and half, remove dregs, and take one wan warm, three times daily.
In Shaoyin disease, if there is sore throat, Jiegeng Gancao Tang should be administered.
Jiegeng (Platycodonis Radix, 0.5 liang) Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, 1 liang)
Finely chop, add one sheng of water, decoct to half a sheng, remove dregs, divide into three doses, and sip slowly.
Additionally, Banxia San can also be used.
Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma, washed seven times with hot water) Guizhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus, peeled) Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, calcined)
Equal parts of each, separately pounded and sifted, then mixed. Take three qian per dose, decoct with one sheng and half of water to eight fen, and swallow slowly at a comfortable temperature.
In Shaoyin disease, if there is diarrhea with undigested food, interior cold with exterior heat, cold extremities, a faint pulse nearly imperceptible, aversion to cold is absent, the face is red, or there is abdominal pain, dry retching, sore throat, or cessation of diarrhea with non-detectable pulse, Tongmai Sini Tang should be administered.
Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, 1 liang) Fuzi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata, half of a large piece, add half for robust individuals) Ganjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma, 3 fen, add 1.5 liang for robust individuals)
Finely chop, add three sheng of water, decoct to one sheng, remove dregs, and take one wan warm, three to four times daily. If not improved, immediately prepare another dose; do not use as a boiled powder. Recovery is indicated by a continuous pulse emergence; sudden emergence indicates death. For facial redness, add four stalks of Congbai (Allii Fistulosi Bulbus) with roots, removing green parts; for abdominal pain, remove Congbai and add Shaoyao (1 liang); for vomiting, add Shengjiang (1 liang); for sore throat, remove Shaoyao and add Jiegeng (0.5 liang); for cessation of diarrhea with non-detectable pulse, remove Jiegeng and add Renshen (0.5 liang). Administer only when the syndrome and formula correspond accurately.
In Shaoyin disease, if after six or seven days of diarrhea there is cough, vomiting, thirst, mental restlessness, and insomnia, Zhuling Tang should be used.
Zhuling (Polyporus, 0.5 liang) Fuling (Poria, 0.5 liang) Zexie (Alismatis Rhizoma, 0.5 liang) Huashi (Talcum, 0.5 liang) Ejiao (Colla Corii Asini, 0.5 liang)
Chop, add two sheng of water, decoct the first four herbs to obtain one sheng, remove dregs, dissolve Ejiao powder completely, and take one wan warm.
In Shaoyin disease, if there is diarrhea, sore throat, chest fullness, and mental restlessness, Zhufu Tang should be administered.
Zhufu (Porcis Cutis, 0.5 jin)
Add five sheng of water, decoct to obtain two sheng and half, remove dregs, add Baimi (White Honey, 0.5 sheng) and Baifen (Rice Flour, 2.5 he), cook until fragrant and mixed well, and take one wan warm, three to four times daily.
In Shaoyin disease, if there are cold extremities, and optionally cough, palpitations, difficult urination, abdominal pain, or a sensation of heaviness in defecation, Sini San should be administered.
Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) Zhishi (Aurantii Fructus Immaturus) Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix) Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix Alba) (each 5 fen)
Pound and sift into fine powder, mix with rice water, and take one fangcun bi per dose, three times daily. For cough, add Wuweizi (Schisandrae Fructus) and Ganjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma, processed), each 2.5 fen, which also treats diarrhea; for palpitations, add Guizhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus) 2.5 fen; for difficult urination, add Chifuling (Polyporus with Red Core) 2.5 fen; for abdominal pain, add Fuzi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata) one piece, processed, peeled; for heaviness in defecation, first decoct Xiebai (Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus, 1.5 sheng) in three sheng of water to obtain two sheng, remove dregs, mix with one fangcun bi of the powder, decoct with one wan of the Xiebai soup to eight fen, and take three to four times daily.
