伤寒病经过猛烈攻下后，又再次发汗，出现胃脘部痞塞不适，且伴有恶寒症状的，说明表证尚未解除，不可直接攻逐痞结；应当先解表，待表证解除后，才可攻治痞结。
大黄（二两） 黄连（一两）
用滚开的麻沸汤二升，浸泡片刻，绞去药渣服用。
胃脘部痞塞，并且又出现恶寒、汗出的，使用附子泻心汤。
大黄（二两） 黄连（一两） 黄芩（一两） 附子（一枚，另煮取汁。）
用滚开的麻沸汤二升，浸泡前三味药，片刻后，去渣，加入附子汁。
伤寒病发汗后表证已解，但胃中不和，胃脘部痞塞且按之坚硬，干呕并伴有食物腐臭气味，胁下有停饮之气，肠中雷鸣般作响，腹泻，使用生姜泻心汤。
生姜（四两） 甘草 人参（各三两） 干姜（一两） 黄连（一两） 黄芩（三两） 半夏（半升） 大枣（十枚）
以上八味药，用水一斗，煎煮至六升，分三次温服。
伤寒或中风病，医生反而误用攻下法，导致患者腹泻，每天数十次，完谷不化，肠中雷鸣般作响，胃脘部痞塞坚硬且胀满，干呕，使用甘草泻心汤。
甘草（四两） 黄芩 干姜（各三两） 半夏（半升） 黄连（一两） 大枣（十二枚）
以上六味药，用水一斗，煎煮至六升，去渣，分三次温服。
王又原说：疾病起于阴分而反被误下，因而形成痞证。然而也有发汗后表解而出现痞证的，也有攻下后又发汗而出现痞证的，这是为了调和表里，以此贯通上下。之所以必推半夏为君药，是因为痞证源于呕吐，半夏能降逆止呕。发汗后表解，已无伤寒表证。胃藏津液，发汗则津液耗亡，故胃中不和。此时不发散胃家升腾之气，乃是治疗杂证的标法。有的属于少阳病，有的属于汗解后，人正处于太阳经阶段，没有使用人参的例子。虽然攻下后又攻下，导致胃中虚，也不可用（指某些特定情况）。这是为了调和客气之上逆，温补其中气之不调，补益其心烦之不安罢了。诊断心下痞的方法：按之柔软，关上脉浮，说明痞证尚未完全形成，所以不用峻猛之药。此处用麻沸汤浸泡，片刻去渣，仅取其无形之气，而不取其有形之味。对于这种症状，明显是表邪未解；心下痞而复见恶寒的，是随后出现的症状，明显是……（原文此处有缺漏，意指表里同病或阳气虚衰）。对于新见的症状，用两方治疗；对于续见的症状，用一方救治。其中的附子是煮汁的，因为需要发挥其温热之力。然而胃位于心下，心下痞即是胃痞。不叫泻胃而叫泻心，是怕误认为是传入阳明腑实证，从而用治疗阳明腑实的方法来治疗。这是张仲景的深意所在。
After severe purgation in a Taiyang disease (disease of the Taiyang channel), followed by repeated sweating, if epigastric fullness and stuffiness (Xin Xia Pi) occurs accompanied by aversion to cold, it indicates that the exterior syndrome has not yet resolved. One must not attack the fullness directly; instead, one should first resolve the exterior. Only after the exterior is resolved can the fullness be treated.
Dahuang Huanglian Xiexin Tang (Rhubarb and Coptis Decoction for Draining the Epigastrium):
Da Huang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma, 2 liang); Huang Lian (Coptidis Rhizoma, 1 liang).
Soak in two sheng of boiling water (Ma Fei Tang) for a short while, strain, and take the decoction.
If epigastric fullness and stuffiness is accompanied by aversion to cold and sweating, Fuzi Xiexin Tang (Aconite Decoction for Draining the Epigastrium) is indicated.
Da Huang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma, 2 liang); Huang Lian (Coptidis Rhizoma, 1 liang); Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix, 1 liang); Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata, one piece, boiled separately to extract juice).
Soak the three herbs (Da Huang, Huang Lian, Huang Qin) in two sheng of boiling water for a short while, strain, and mix with the juice of the boiled Fu Zi.
After sweating resolves the exterior syndrome in Taiyang disease, if there is disharmony in the Stomach, hardness and fullness in the epigastrium, dry belching with a smell of undigested food, fluid retention under the flanks, borborygmus in the abdomen, and diarrhea, Shengjiang Xiexin Tang (Fresh Ginger Decoction for Draining the Epigastrium) is indicated.
Sheng Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, 4 liang); Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix, each 3 liang); Gan Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma, 1 liang); Huang Lian (Coptidis Rhizoma, 1 liang); Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix, 3 liang); Ban Xia (Pinelliae Rhizoma, half sheng); Da Zao (Jujubae Fructus, 10 pieces).
Boil these eight ingredients in ten dou of water until six sheng remain, divide into three doses, and take warm.
In Taiyang disease or Zhongfeng (Wind Strike), if the physician erroneously uses purgation, leading to diarrhea occurring dozens of times a day with undigested food, borborygmus, hard and full epigastric stuffiness, and dry vomiting, Gancao Xiexin Tang (Licorice Decoction for Draining the Epigastrium) is indicated.
Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, 4 liang); Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix), Gan Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma, each 3 liang); Ban Xia (Pinelliae Rhizoma, half sheng); Huang Lian (Coptidis Rhizoma, 1 liang); Da Zao (Jujubae Fructus, 12 pieces).
Boil these six ingredients in ten dou of water until six sheng remain, strain, divide into three doses, and take warm.
Wang Youyuan stated: When a disease originates from the Yin aspect and is erroneously purged, Pi (fullness/stuffiness) results. However, Pi can also remain after sweating resolves the exterior, or arise after purgation followed by sweating... Pungent substances harmonize the interior and exterior, thereby clearing the upper and lower. Ban Xia is elevated as the sovereign herb because Pi arises from vomiting... After sweating resolves the exterior, Taiyang disease is gone. The Stomach stores Jin Ye (Body Fluids); sweating depletes these fluids, causing Stomach disharmony... stimulating the ascending Qi of the Stomach-Fu is the symptomatic treatment for miscellaneous diseases. One case belongs to Shaoyang, another to post-sweating resolution... If the pathogen is still in Taiyang, there is no indication for Ren Shen. Although double purgation causes Stomach deficiency, certain tonics may be contraindicated... Harmonizing the rebellious Qi, warming the middle Jiao, and calming mental restlessness are the goals. The diagnosis of epigastric Pi: palpable softness and floating Guan pulse indicate Pi is not yet fully formed... Soaking in boiling water extracts only the formless Qi, not the solid taste... Symptoms clearly show unresolved exterior pathogens; Pi with aversion to cold appearing subsequently indicates a new development... Two formulas treat simultaneous occurrences; one formula treats subsequent developments. Fu Zi is boiled separately to preserve its potency... The Stomach resides below the heart; thus, epigastric Pi is Stomach Pi. It is called "Draining the Heart" rather than "Draining the Stomach"... Mistakenly treating it as Yangming transmission using Yangming methods misses Zhang Zhongjing's profound intent.
