The *Zhubing Yuanhou Lun* (Treatise on the Pathogenesis and Manifestations of All Diseases) states: Dry retching is caused by the rebellion of Stomach Qi. It involves the urge to vomit without anything being expelled, hence it is called dry retching.
The *Seng Shen Fang* (Prescriptions of Monk Shen) for treating Stomach Qi rebellion with dry retching, urge to vomit but nothing coming out, uses the Ginseng Decoction:
Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma, 2 liang), Gan Jiang (Dried Ginger Rhizome, 4 liang), Ze Xie (Alisma Rhizome, 2 liang), Gui Xin (Cinnamon Twig Heart, 2 liang), Gan Cao (Licorice Root, 2 liang), Fu Ling (Poria, 4 liang), Da Huang (Rhubarb Root and Rhizome, 1 liang).
Take these eight herbs, add eight sheng of water, decoct until three sheng remain. Take eight ge per dose, three times a day.
It also states: Zhu Yu Tang (Evodia Decoction) treats dry retching with expulsion of saliva and foam, vexation, and headache:
Zhu Yu (Evodia Fruit, half sheng), Da Zao (Jujube Fruit, 10 pieces), Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma, 3 liang), Sheng Jiang (Fresh Ginger Rhizome, 6 liang).
Take these four herbs, add six sheng of water, decoct until two sheng five ge remain. Take three times a day.

The *Ji Yan Fang* (Verified Prescriptions) for dry retching or hiccups accompanied by cold extremities:
Ju Pi (Citrus Reticulata Peel, 4 liang), Sheng Jiang (Fresh Ginger Rhizome, 6 liang, sliced).
Add six sheng of water, decoct until three sheng remain. Take one sheng per dose. (This is identical to the *Qian Jin Fang*).
The *Ge Shi Fang* (Prescriptions of Ge) for incessant dry retching: Crush Ge Gen (Kudzu Root), squeeze out the juice, take approximately one sheng.
Another prescription: Moxibustion on Jian Shi (Neiguan, PC6), located between the two tendons one cun posterior to both wrists. Seven moxa cones on each side.
