白蜜(一斤),生姜(二斤,榨取汁液)。先称量铜锅的重量并记录。放入蜂蜜和姜汁,用小火熬煮,直到姜汁完全蒸发,只剩下蜂蜜且重量仍为一斤时停止。每次含服如枣核大小的一丸,每日三次服用。
这是手太阴肺经的药物。白蜜质地滑利,能滋润肺燥;生姜味辛,能发散寒邪。宋代洪迈患有痰疾,晚年发作时,上级建议他用胡桃三枚、生姜三片,效果相同。
治疗因过度劳累导致四肢筋脉津液耗竭,频繁出现肌肉痉挛,指甲疼痛,无法久站,名为“筋极”(肝主司筋脉,筋极是六极之一。医经说:阳气精微则滋养精神,柔和则滋养筋脉。筋骨过度劳累,耗损津液,不能濡养筋脉,所以筋脉拘急且频繁抽搐)。
猪脂,姜汁(二升,熬浓缩至三升,再加入酒),酒(五合)。分三次服用。
这是足厥阴肝经的药物。津液枯竭、筋脉枯槁,不是草木类药物能迅速见效的。猪膏润滑,能滋养筋脉;姜汁辛温,能润燥;酒能调和血液且性质善于通行,取其药力容易到达四肢。
本方去掉姜汁,加入乱发煎煮,头发消融后药成,名为猪膏发煎(张仲景:治疗各种黄疸,使病邪从小便排出)。本方去掉……

治疗产后大便不通。(许叔微说:妇人产后有三种病:郁冒则多汗,多汗则大便秘结,所以难以使用……)
大麻仁,紫苏子,等分。洗净,一起研磨。再加水研磨,取汁液煮粥食用。
这是手阳明大肠经的药物。麻仁是大肠经的正药,滑肠润燥,通便祛风;苏子兼走手太阴肺经,润肺通肠,和血下气;药性行而不猛烈,缓和而能通畅,所以老人、产妇气血不足者适宜使用。(许叔微说:一位八十四岁的妇女突然腹痛头痛,恶心不食。医生们都议论补脾治风,清利头目,服药虽然症状缓解,但完全不能进食,家属非常担忧。我辨析之前的药物都错了,这是老人的风秘证,脏腑壅滞,聚于胸中,则腹胀恶心,不思饮食,上至于头顶,则头痛)

Bai Mi (White Honey, 1 jin), Sheng Jiang (Fresh Ginger, 2 jin, juice extracted). First, weigh the copper cauldron and record its weight. Add the honey and ginger juice, simmer over a low fire until the ginger juice is completely evaporated, leaving only the honey with a weight of 1 jin, then stop. Take one pill the size of a jujube kernel by holding it in the mouth, three times a day.
This is a medicine for the Hand-Taiyin Lung Meridian. Bai Mi is slippery and moistens the Lung dryness; Sheng Jiang is pungent and disperses Cold. Song Dynasty scholar Hong Mai suffered from phlegm disorders; in his later years, when symptoms recurred, superiors suggested using three walnuts and three slices of ginger, which yielded similar results.
Treats "Jin Ji" (Sinew Extremity) caused by excessive labor leading to depletion of fluids in the sinews of the four limbs, frequent muscle spasms, pain in the nails, and inability to stand for long periods ("Jin Ji" refers to the Liver governing the sinews; Jin Ji is one of the Six Extremities. The Classics state: Yang Qi nourishes the spirit when refined and the sinews when soft. Overwork of sinews and bones depletes fluids, failing to nourish them, resulting in stiffness and frequent spasms).
Zhu Gao (Pork Lard), Sheng Jiang Juice (2 sheng, reduced to 3 sheng, then add Jiu/Wine), Jiu (Wine, 5 he). Divide into three doses.
This is a medicine for the Foot-Jueyin Liver Meridian. When fluids are exhausted and sinews are withered, herbal medicines alone cannot produce immediate effects. Zhu Gao is lubricating and nourishes the sinews; Sheng Jiang Juice is pungent and moistens dryness; Jiu harmonizes blood and has a nature that promotes circulation, allowing the medicinal effect to easily reach the four limbs.
If this formula excludes Sheng Jiang Juice and adds human hair (Luan Fa) for decoction, once the hair dissolves, the medicine is ready, named Zhu Gao Fa Jian (Cinnamon Twig and Human Hair Decoction - *Note: Text says Zhu Gao Fa Jian*): Zhang Zhongjing stated it treats various types of Jaundice, causing the pathogen to exit via urination. This formula excludes...

Treats postpartum constipation. (Xu Shuwei said: Women have three types of postpartum illnesses: Yu Mao leads to sweating, sweating leads to constipation, thus difficult to use...)
Da Ma Ren (Hemp Seed), Zi Su Zi (Perilla Fruit), equal parts. Wash clean, grind together. Add water, grind again, extract the juice, and cook porridge to consume.
This is a medicine for the Hand-Yangming Large Intestine Meridian. Da Ma Ren is the primary herb for the Yangming meridian, lubricating the intestines, moistening dryness, promoting bowel movements, and dispelling wind; Zi Su Zi also enters the Hand-Taiyin Lung Meridian, moistening the lungs, unblocking the intestines, harmonizing blood, and directing Qi downward. Its action is gentle rather than harsh, slow yet effective, making it suitable for the elderly and postpartum women with insufficient Qi and Blood. (Xu Shuwei said: An eighty-four-year-old woman suddenly suffered from abdominal pain, headache, nausea, and loss of appetite. Physicians discussed tonifying the Spleen, treating wind, and clearing the head and eyes. Although her symptoms improved after taking medicine, she could not eat at all, causing great anxiety among her family. I analyzed that the previous prescriptions were incorrect; this is Wind Constipation in the elderly, with stagnation in the Zang-Fu organs accumulating in the chest, causing abdominal distension, nausea, and anorexia. When it rises to the vertex, it causes headache.)
