也。方用∶

红花(二钱) 甘草(一钱) 水(两碗) 生姜(三片) 大枣(两枚)

这种病症,人们多用祛风药治疗,却很少见效。此方通过调理气血,因此没有不有效的。
〔羊癫风之症〕,突然倒地,发出像羊或马一样的叫声,口中吐出大量痰液,这是痰浊迷蔽心窍所致。大概是因为寒邪所致,感受寒邪就会发作。处方用药:
人参(三钱) 白术(一两) 茯神(五钱) 山药(三钱) 薏苡仁(五钱) 肉桂(一钱) 附子(一钱) 半夏(三钱)
水煎煮后服用。

制成蜜丸,必须在发病前服用,这样就能永远不再发作。(因为能健旺胃气,自然就不会产生痰浊。况且又有能够祛痰破关的猛将辅助,用这个方子治疗自然会痊愈。)
这种病症多生于脾胃的虚寒,饮食进入胃中,不能转化为精微物质反而转化为痰浊,痰浊迷蔽心窍,于是形成癫狂。如果只治疗痰浊而不补益元气,没有不迅速死亡的。处方用药:
人参(五钱) 白芥子(五钱) 白术(一两) 半夏(三钱) 陈皮(二钱) 肉桂(一钱) 干姜(一钱)

Water (2 bowls), Sheng Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) (3 slices), Da Zao (Jujubae Fructus) (2 pieces).
Decoct and take orally.
This condition is often treated by people with wind-dispelling herbs, but it rarely shows efficacy. This prescription regulates Qi and Blood, thus ensuring effectiveness.
[Sheep Epilepsy Syndrome]: The patient suddenly falls down, makes sounds like a sheep or horse, and vomits copious amounts of phlegm from the mouth. This is caused by Phlegm confusing the Heart orifice. It is generally due to Cold pathogen; contracting Cold triggers the attack. Prescription:
Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix) (3 qian), Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma) (1 liang), Fu Shen (Poria with Hostwood) (5 qian), Shan Yao (Dioscoreae Rhizoma) (3 qian), Yi Ren (Coicis Semen) (5 qian), Rou Gui (Cinnamomi Cortex) (1 qian), Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata) (1 qian), Ban Xia (Pinelliae Tuber) (3 qian).
Decoct in water and take orally.
(This prescription assists Zheng Qi [Upright Qi] to generate Xin Xue [Heart Blood], adds Rou Gui and Fu Zi to dispel Cold pathogen, and adds Ban Xia to resolve Phlegm and drive out fluid retention. Naturally, Qi returns and epilepsy stops. One dose cures it completely, preventing recurrence forever. Please cherish this.)
Another prescription:
Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix) (1 liang), Fu Shen (Poria with Hostwood) (1 liang), Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma) (5 qian), Ban Xia (Pinelliae Tuber) (1 qian), Nan Xing (Arisaematis Rhizoma) (1 qian), Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata) (1 qian), Chai Hu (Bupleuri Radix) (1 qian), Chang Pu (Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma) (0.3 fen).
Decoct in water and take orally.
This was originally a formula for treating Cold-type Mania, but it is also excellent for treating epilepsy.
Yet another prescription:
Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix) (3 liang), Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma) (5 liang), Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (1 liang), Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) (3 qian), Sheng Nan Xing (Raw Arisaematis Rhizoma) (1 liang), Ban Xia (Pinelliae Tuber) (1 liang), Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata) (1 qian).
Make into honey pills. Must be taken before an attack occurs to prevent recurrence permanently. (Strengthening Stomach Qi naturally prevents Phlegm generation. Moreover, assisted by potent Phlegm-resolving agents, this formula ensures self-healing.)
This condition often arises from deficiency-Cold of the Spleen and Stomach. When food enters the Stomach, it fails to transform into essence and instead transforms into Phlegm. Phlegm confuses the Heart orifice, leading to Dian Kuang [Epilepsy and Mania]. If one merely treats Phlegm without tonifying Qi, death will inevitably follow rapidly. Prescription:
Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix) (5 qian), Bai Jie Zi (Sinapis Semen) (5 qian), Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma) (1 liang), Ban Xia (Pinelliae Tuber) (3 qian), Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) (2 qian), Rou Gui (Cinnamomi Cortex) (1 qian), Gan Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma) (1 qian), Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (0.5 fen), Chang Pu (Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma) (0.5 fen).
Decoct in water and take orally.
If a woman suffers from this condition, remove Rou Gui, add Bai Shao (Paeoniae Radix Alba) (1 liang), Chai Hu (Bupleuri Radix) (2 qian), and Hei Zhi Zi (Gardeniae Fructus processed with bran) (1 qian). The therapeutic effect is most miraculous.
