小儿积嗽，因食积生痰，热气熏蒸，肺气上促痰壅，频频咳嗽。便溏者，古法主曲麦二陈汤（如陈皮、姜
制半夏、茯苓、生甘草、姜制黄连、山楂、炒麦芽、炒神曲、栝蒌仁、炒枳实，引用姜、枣）。
便秘者，古法主苏葶滚痰丸〔如炒苏子一两，苦葶苈一两，酒蒸大黄四两，沉香五钱，黄芩四两，青礞石（火
如金为度）五钱，共为末，水为丸〕，量儿虚实服之，姜汤送下。
〔真按〕小儿积嗽，积已化痰，痰壅而后气促，此即咳嗽之根原。便溏、但用炒麦芽一钱，炒神曲一钱，
炒枳实八分，半夏曲八分，制胆星三分，姜制半夏五分，炒栝蒌钱半，炒山楂一钱，引用竹沥汁姜汁各十滴。
便硬者，加酒蒸大黄五分。
小儿脱衣，偶为风冷所乘，肺先受邪，使气上逆，冲塞咽膈，发为咳嗽，嚏喷流涕，鼻塞声重，频唾痰涎，
古法主先以参苏饮疏解表邪（如苏叶、干葛、前胡、陈皮、半夏、生甘草、炒枳壳、桔梗、赤茯苓等味）。
再以金沸草散清其痰嗽（如细辛、荆芥、半夏、旋复花、前胡、甘草、赤苓，引用姜、枣）。
苦寒邪壅蔽，古法主加味华盖散（如麻黄、杏仁、炒苏子、前胡、橘红、生甘草、炒桑皮、桔梗、赤茯苓等
味）水煎，食后温服。
〔真按〕小儿因受风寒而起咳嗽，但用苦杏仁二钱，嫩苏梗一钱，软前胡五分，赤芍药一钱，留白陈皮八
分，片桔梗五分。生甘草五分。
痰薄者，加姜制半夏五分；痰浓者，加川贝母八分，栝蒌仁一钱。
小儿积滞咳嗽，是由于饮食积滞产生痰湿，热气熏蒸，导致肺气上逆、痰液壅塞，从而频繁咳嗽。若伴有大便溏稀者，古法主张使用曲麦二陈汤（包含陈皮、姜制半夏、茯苓、生甘草、姜制黄连、山楂、炒麦芽、炒神曲、栝蒌仁、炒枳实，煎服时加入生姜、大枣作为药引）。若伴有便秘者，古法主张使用苏葶滚痰丸（包含炒苏子一两，苦葶苈一两，酒蒸大黄四两，沉香五钱，黄芩四两，青礞石煅烧至如金色为度五钱，共研为细末，用水泛丸），根据患儿的虚实情况服用，用姜汤送服。
〔陈守真按语〕小儿积滞咳嗽，积滞已经转化为痰，痰液壅塞进而导致气促，这就是咳嗽的根本原因。若大便溏稀，仅使用炒麦芽一钱，炒神曲一钱，炒枳实八分，半夏曲八分，制胆南星三分，姜制半夏五分，炒栝蒌仁一钱半，炒山楂一钱，煎服时加入竹沥汁和姜汁各十滴。若大便干硬者，加酒蒸大黄五分。
小儿脱去衣物，偶然受到风寒侵袭，肺脏首先受邪，导致气机上逆，冲塞咽喉膈膜，引发咳嗽、打喷嚏、流鼻涕、鼻塞声音重浊，频繁吐唾痰涎。古法主张先用参苏饮疏解表邪（包含苏叶、干葛、前胡、陈皮、半夏、生甘草、炒枳壳、桔梗、赤茯苓等药味）。再用金沸草散清除其痰嗽（包含细辛、荆芥、半夏、旋复花、前胡、甘草、赤茯苓，煎服时加入生姜、大枣作为药引）。若是苦寒之邪壅蔽，古法主张使用加味华盖散（包含麻黄、杏仁、炒苏子、前胡、橘红、生甘草、炒桑白皮、桔梗、赤茯苓等药味）水煎，饭后温服。
〔陈守真按语〕小儿因感受风寒而起咳嗽，仅使用苦杏仁二钱，嫩苏梗一钱，软前胡五分，赤芍药一钱，留白陈皮八分，片状桔梗五分，生甘草五分。
若痰液稀薄者，加姜制半夏五分；若痰液浓稠者，加川贝母八分，栝蒌仁一钱。
Pediatric cough due to food stagnation arises from phlegm generated by food retention, where heat qi steams and steams upward, causing Lung Qi to ascend and phlegm to obstruct, resulting in frequent coughing. If accompanied by loose stools, the ancient method prescribes Qu Mai Er Chen Tang (Qu Mai Erchen Decoction) [containing Chenpi (Tangerine Peel), Jiangzhi Banxia (Pinellia Rhizome Prepared with Ginger), Fuling (Poria), Sheng Gancao (Raw Licorice Root), Jiangzhi Huanglian (Coptis Rhizome Prepared with Ginger), Shanzha (Hawthorn Fruit), Chao Maiya (Fried Hordeum Fructus), Chao Shenqu (Fried Massa Medicamentosa), Gualouren (Trichosanthes Seed), Chao Zhishi (Fried Aurantium Fructus Immaturus), with Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger) and Dazao (Jujube) as guides]. If accompanied by constipation, the ancient method prescribes Su Ting Gun Tan Wan (Su Ting Guntan Pill) [containing Chao Suzi (Fried Perilla Seed), Ku Tingli (Fruitus Descurainiae seu Lepidii, 1 liang), Jiu Zheng Dahuang (Rhubarb Root and Rhizome Steamed with Wine, 4 liang), Chenxiang (Aquilaria Lignum, 5 qian), Huangqin (Scutellaria Root, 4 liang), Qingmengshi (Calcareous Schist Calcined until golden, 5 qian), all ground into powder and formed into pills with water], administered according to the child's deficiency or excess, taken down with ginger decoction.
[Chen Shouzhen's Note] In pediatric cough due to food stagnation, stagnation transforms into phlegm; phlegm obstruction leads to shortness of breath. This is the root cause of coughing. For loose stools, use only Chao Maiya (Fried Hordeum Fructus, 1 qian), Chao Shenqu (Fried Massa Medicamentosa, 1 qian), Chao Zhishi (Fried Aurantium Fructus Immaturus, 8 fen), Banxia Qu (Pinellia Fermented Mass, 8 fen), Zhi Dansheng (Arisaema Cum Bile, 3 fen), Jiangzhi Banxia (Pinellia Rhizome Prepared with Ginger, 5 fen), Chao Gualou (Fried Trichosanthes Fruit, 1.5 qian), Chao Shanzha (Fried Hawthorn Fruit, 1 qian), with Zhuli (Bamboo Sap) and Jiangzhi (Ginger Juice), ten drops each, as guides. For hard stools, add Jiu Zheng Dahuang (Rhubarb Root and Rhizome Steamed with Wine, 5 fen).
When children remove clothing and are accidentally exposed to wind-cold, the Lung is first affected by the pathogen, causing Qi to reverse upward, blocking the throat and diaphragm, leading to cough, sneezing, runny nose, nasal congestion with heavy voice, and frequent expectoration of phlegm and saliva. The ancient method advises first using Shen Su Yin (Shensu Drink) to release exterior pathogens [containing Suye (Perilla Leaf), Qian Ge (Kudzu Root), Qianhu (Peucedani Radix), Chenpi (Tangerine Peel), Banxia (Pinellia Rhizoma), Sheng Gancao (Raw Licorice Root), Chao Zhiqiao (Fried Aurantium Fructus Immaturus), Jiegeng (Platycodon Root), Chi Fuling (Red Poria), etc.]. Then use Jin Fei Cao San (Jinfecao Powder) to clear phlegm and cough [containing Xixin (Asarum Root), Jingjie (Schizonepeta Spike), Banxia (Pinellia Rhizoma), Xuanfuhua (Inulae Flos), Qianhu (Peucedani Radix), Gancao (Licorice Root), Chi Ling (Red Poria), with Shengjiang (Fresh Ginger) and Dazao (Jujube) as guides]. If constrained by bitter-cold pathogens, the ancient method prescribes Jia Wei Hua Gai San (Modified Huagai Powder) [containing Mahuang (Ephedrae Herba), Xingren (Prunus Armeniacae Semen), Chao Suzi (Fried Perilla Seed), Qianhu (Peucedani Radix), Juhong (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium Rubrum), Sheng Gancao (Raw Licorice Root), Chao Sangbai Pi (Fried Mori Cortex), Jiegeng (Platycodon Root), Chi Fuling (Red Poria), etc.], decocted in water and taken warm after meals.
[Chen Shouzhen's Note] For pediatric cough caused by wind-cold exposure, use only Kuxingren (Bitter Apricot Seed, 2 qian), Nen Sugeng (Tender Perilla Stem, 1 qian), Ruan Qianhu (Soft Peucedani Radix, 5 fen), Chi Shaoyao (Red Peony Root, 1 qian), Liubai Chenpi (White Tangerine Peel Retained, 8 fen), Pian Jiegeng (Sliced Platycodon Root, 5 fen), Sheng Gancao (Raw Licorice Root, 5 fen).
For thin phlegm, add Jiangzhi Banxia (Pinellia Rhizome Prepared with Ginger, 5 fen); for thick phlegm, add Chuan Beimu (Fritillaria Cirrhosae Bulbus, 8 fen), Gualouren (Trichosanthes Seed, 1 qian).
