治疗胸膈部位的痰饮病。
广陈皮(去除白色内层,八两,用盐水浸泡清洗) 甘草(二两,用蜂蜜炙烤。)制成蒸饼糊丸。或者将陈皮用盐水煮烂。
这是足太阴脾经、足阳明胃经的药物。陈皮燥湿并疏通气机,湿气去除则痰液枯竭,气机顺畅则痰液运行;食盐具有润下和软化坚硬的作用,润下则痰液
(出自《金匮要略》)
治疗心下有痰饮,胸胁部支撑胀满,头晕目眩(稀薄的称为饮,稠厚的称为痰。痰饮积聚于厥阴心包经,则导致胸胁支撑胀满)。
茯苓(四两) 桂枝 白术(三两) 甘草(二两。)
这是足太阴脾经的药物。喻嘉言说:茯苓治疗痰饮,伐除肾邪,渗利水道;桂枝通调阳气,开通经络,调和营卫;白术燥化痰水,消除胀满,治疗风邪引起的眩晕;甘草配合茯苓则不助长胀满反而消除胀满,所以《本草》说:甘草能降气
应当从
治疗痰热证(热痰,是指因火盛而形成的痰。痰就是有形之火,火就是无形之痰;痰随着火而升降,火引导痰而横行;变生各种病症,多得无法尽数记载。火借五脏之气而生,痰借五味之液而成;气有余则化为火,液有余则聚为痰;因此
半夏(姜汁制) 胆南星(半两) 橘红 枳实(麸皮炒) 杏仁(去皮尖) 瓜蒌仁(去油)
黄芩(
这是手太阴肺经、足太阴脾经的药物,是治疗痰火的通用方剂。气能引发火,火能驱使痰,半夏、天南星用来燥化湿气;黄芩、瓜蒌用来平抑热气;陈皮用来顺理里气,杏仁用来降逆气,枳实用来破除积滞之气,茯苓用来行用水气,水湿火热,都是生成痰的根本原因。大概气的亢盛就变成火,就像百姓造反成为贼寇,贼寇平定后就变回良民,恢复其职业了,水退去则回归

Treats phlegm-fluid retention in the diaphragm.
Guang Chenpi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, remove the white pith, 8 liang, soak and wash with salt water) Gancao (Licorice Root, 2 liang, honey-fried). Form into pills using steamed cake paste. Alternatively, boil Chenpi until soft in salt water.
This is a formula for the Foot-Taiyin Spleen Meridian and Foot-Yangming Stomach Meridian. Chenpi dries dampness and promotes qi movement; when dampness is removed, phlegm dries up; when qi flows smoothly, phlegm moves; Salt water moistens downward and softens hardness; moistening downward causes phlegm to...
(From *Jin Gui Yao Lue* / Essential Prescriptions of the Golden Cabinet)
Treats phlegm-fluid retention under the heart, with fullness and distension supporting from the chest and hypochondrium, and vertigo (thin fluid is called "Yin", thick substance is called "Tan"; when Tan-Yin accumulates in the Jueyin Pericardium, it causes chest and hypochondrial fullness and distension).
Fuling (Poria, 4 liang) Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig) Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, 3 liang) Gancao (Licorice Root, 2 liang).
This is a formula for the Foot-Taiyin Spleen Meridian. Yu Jiayan stated: Fuling treats phlegm-fluid retention, attacks Kidney pathogenic factors, and渗利 (seeps and drains) the water passages; Guizhi unblocks Yang Qi, opens collaterals, and harmonizes Ying and Wei; Baizhu dries phlegm-water, eliminates distension, and treats wind-induced vertigo; Gancao combined with Fuling does not contribute to fullness but rather reduces it, thus *Ben Cao* states: Gancao can descend Qi.

Treats Phlegm-Heat syndrome (Hot Phlegm refers to phlegm formed due to excessive Fire. Phlegm is tangible Fire, Fire is intangible Phlegm; Phlegm rises and falls with Fire, Fire guides Phlegm to move horizontally; various syndromes arise, too numerous to record. Fire borrows Qi from the Five Zang Organs, Phlegm borrows fluids from the Five Flavors; Excess Qi transforms into Fire, Excess Fluids condense into Phlegm; therefore...)
Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma, processed with Ginger Juice) Danningxing (Arisaematis Cum Bile, half liang) Juhong (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium Rubrum) Zhishi (Immature Bitter Orange Fruit, stir-fried with bran) Xingren (Prunus Armeniacae Semen, remove skin and tips) Gualouren (Trichosanthis Semen, remove oil) Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix)...
This is a formula for the Hand-Taiyin Lung Meridian and Foot-Taiyin Spleen Meridian, a general agent for treating Phlegm-Fire. Qi can generate Fire, Fire can drive Phlegm; Banxia and Nanxing dry dampness; Huangqin and Gualou calm heat; Chenpi regulates interior Qi, Xingren descends rebellious Qi, Zhishi breaks accumulated Qi, Fuling moves Water Qi. Water-dampness and Fire-heat are the root sources of Phlegm generation. Generally, excessive Qi becomes Fire, just as people rebelling become bandits; once bandits are pacified, they return to being good citizens and resume their occupations; when water recedes, it returns to...
