治疗久咳不止,担心发展成劳瘵(慢性消耗性疾病)。
贝母(去除心部) 知母 前胡 柴胡 杏仁(去除皮尖及双仁者,各四钱) 大团鱼(重量在十二两以上的,去除内脏,一只)
将上述药物与鱼一同煮熟,取鱼肉连同汤汁食用。将药渣焙干研成粉末,用鱼骨煮出一盏汁液,调和药粉制成丸剂,大小如梧桐子。每次服用二十丸,用麦冬汤送服,每日三次。

用白菊花二两(去蒂)、桑叶二两(经霜打的)熬制成膏,将阿胶溶化入膏中,混合药物并加入适量炼蜜制成丸剂,大小如弹子。每次服用一丸,含化咽下,每日三次。
血虚且火旺,加上饮用烈酒和食用油炸烧烤之物,导致热气沸腾,逼迫血液妄行,称为“阳乘阴”。治法应当清热降逆,以四生丸等为主进行治疗。吐血停止后,则使用六味地黄丸进行补益。如果脉象细、沉、迟,口舌清润,平时体质虚寒,或者兼受风寒之气,这被称为“天寒地冻,水凝成冰”,称为“阴乘阳”。治法应当温散寒邪,以理中汤为主进行治疗。凡是治疗血症,不论属于阴证还是阳证,都以顾护脾胃作为收功的良好策略。确实因为脾胃是决定病情吉凶的关键所在。医书说:从上往下损伤的,一损损伤于肺,二损损伤于肝,三损损伤于脾,如果损伤超过脾,就不可治愈。从下往上损伤的,一损损伤于肾,二损损伤于心,三损损伤于胃,如果损伤超过胃,就不可治愈。所谓损伤超过脾胃,指的是出现呕吐腹泻的症状。古人有句话说,不问是阴证还是阳证、冷证还是热证,先要将脾胃安顿调和。朱丹溪说:凡是血症,必须用四君子汤之类的方剂来收功。这话很有深意和道理。然而补脾养胃,不仅仅依靠药物,更在于饮食是否适宜。《难经》说:损伤脾脏的,要调理其饮食,适应其寒温。确实,饮食的补益作用远胜于药物。世上治疗虚损病的人,也可以由此恍惚领悟了。
To treat persistent cough that does not cease, fearing it may develop into Lao Zhai (chronic consumptive disease).
Beimu (Fritillariae Bulbus, removed heart) Zhimu (Anemarrhenae Rhizoma) Qianhu (Peucedani Radix) Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix) Xingren (Armeniacae Semen Amarum, removed skin, tip, and double kernels, each 4 qian) Da Tuanyu (Large soft-shelled turtle, weighing over 12 liang, internal organs removed, one whole)
Cook the above herbs together with the turtle until done. Consume the meat along with the broth. Dry the herb dregs by roasting, grind them into powder, boil the turtle bones in water to obtain one cup of liquid, mix with the powder to form pills, sized like paulownia seeds. Take 20 pills per dose, administered with Maidong Decoction (Ophiopogonis Decoction), three times daily.
Moisten the lungs and stop cough; also treats Fei Wei (lung atrophy/withering).
Renshen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma, 5 fen) Ziwan (Asternatis Herba) Zhimu (Anemarrhenae Rhizoma, steamed) Beimu (Fritillariae Bulbus, removed heart) Jiegeng (Platycodonis Radix) Fuling (Poria) Zhen Ejiao (Donkey-hide Gelatin, stir-fried with clam powder until granular, each 1 qian) Wuweizi (Schisandrae Fructus) Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, honey-fried, each 3 fen)
Decoct in water and take orally.
Nourish yin and descend fire, resolve phlegm, remove blood stasis, stop cough, calm asthma, protect the lungs, soothe the liver, dissipate wind-heat, kill "corpse parasites" (pathogenic factors causing consumption); this is for Yin deficiency patterns.
Tiantong (Asparagi Radix, removed heart and steamed) Maidong (Ophiopogonis Tuber, removed heart and steamed) Shengdi (Rehmanniae Radix, washed with wine) Shudi (Rehmanniae Radix Preparata, steamed and sun-dried nine times) Shanyao (Dioscoreae Rhizoma, steamed with milk) Baibu (Stemonae Radix, steamed) Shashen (Adenophorae Radix or Glehniae Radix, steamed) Chuan Beimu (Fritillariae Cirrhosae Bulbus, removed heart and steamed) Zhen Ejiao (Donkey-hide Gelatin, each 1 liang) Fuling (Poria, steamed with milk) Ta Gan (Leporis Liver) Guang Sanqi (Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma, each 5 qian)
Boil 2 liang of Baijuhua (Chrysanthemi Flos, peduncle removed) and 2 liang of Sangye (Mori Folium, frosted) into a paste. Dissolve the Ejiao into the paste, mix with the herbs, add a little refined honey, and form pills sized like marbles. Take one pill per dose, hold in mouth to dissolve and swallow, three times daily.
Blood deficiency with hyperactive fire, exacerbated by consuming strong alcohol and fried/roasted foods, causes heat qi to surge and force blood to move recklessly, termed Yang Cheng Yin (Yang invading Yin). The treatment method should be to clear heat and descend rebellious qi, primarily using Sisheng Wan (Four Raw Ingredients Pill) etc. After hematemesis stops, use Liuwei Dihuang Wan (Six-Ingredient Rehmannia Pill) to tonify. If the pulse is fine, deep, and slow, with moist mouth and tongue, and the patient has a constitutionally cold and deficient body type, or has contracted wind-cold, this is described as "cold heaven and frozen earth, water congealing into ice," termed Yin Cheng Yang (Yin invading Yang). The treatment method should be to warm and disperse, primarily using Lizhong Tang (Regulate the Middle Decoction). In treating blood disorders, regardless of yin or yang patterns, protecting the spleen and stomach is the best strategy for successful recovery. Indeed, the spleen and stomach are the gateway to fortune or misfortune. Medical texts state: Damage descending from above involves one damage to the lung, two damages to the liver, three damages to the spleen; if damage exceeds the spleen, it is incurable. Damage ascending from below involves one damage to the kidney, two damages to the heart, three damages to the stomach; if damage exceeds the stomach, it is incurable. What is meant by damage exceeding the spleen and stomach is vomiting and diarrhea. The ancients said, "Regardless of yin/yang or cold/heat, first settle and harmonize the spleen and stomach." Danxi stated: "For all blood disorders, one must use formulas similar to Sijunzi Tang (Four Gentlemen Decoction) to conclude treatment." His words contain profound truth. However, tonifying the spleen and nourishing the stomach relies not solely on medicine, but on appropriate diet. The *Nan Jing* states: "For those damaged in the spleen, regulate their diet and adapt to temperature changes." Indeed, dietary nourishment far surpasses medicinal effects. Those who treat consumption diseases in the world can gain insight from this.
