【背景信息】
书名:备急千金要方 作者:孙思邈 朝代:唐·永徽三年 章节:耆婆万病丸 类别:方剂
治疗七种痞块(腹内结块,按之有形而固定不移者),五种癫病(精神失常,沉默痴呆,语无伦次,静而多喜者为癫)。十种疰忤(具有传染性、病程迁延的病症),七种飞尸(发病迅速、游走不定、致死率高的急性传染病),十二种蛊毒(因虫毒或邪气引起的中毒性疾病),五种黄病(以面目身黄为主要表现的疾病),十二时疟疾(不同时辰发作的疟疾),
十种水病(水肿类疾病),八种大风(麻风等严重的风邪致病),十二种痹(经络闭塞不通引起的疼痛麻木),以及风邪侵入头眼导致视物模糊昏暗,还有上气咳嗽,喉间痰鸣如水鸡声,无法安眠卧躺,饮食减少导致肌肤消瘦,五脏气机阻滞,积聚不消,壅塞闭阻不通,心腹胀满,以及连及胸背鼓胀气坚结块流入四肢,或者又出现膈气胀满定时发作,十年、二十年不愈。五种下痢伴有疳虫、寸白虫(绦虫)等各种寄生虫,上下冷热不调,
长期积滞的痰饮,使人嗜睡,身体消瘦无力,病邪深入骨髓形成瘀滞,患身体气肿,饮食呕吐逆乱,腰脚酸痛,四肢沉重,站立行走不能持久,妇女因产后寒气侵入子宫,胞宫不净,或者闭塞不通,胞中有瘀血,寒湿停滞流出不尽,时时疼痛为患,或者因此导致不孕,以及小儿赤白痢疾,还有狐臭、耳聋、鼻塞等疾病。此药以三丸为一剂,服药不超过三剂,万病悉除,说法无穷无尽,所以称为万病丸。
牛黄、麝香、犀角、桑白皮、茯苓、干姜、桂心、当归、川芎、芍药、甘遂、黄芩、蜀椒、细辛、桔梗、巴豆、前胡、紫菀、蒲黄、葶苈子、防风、人参、朱砂、雄黄、黄连、大戟、禹余粮。
以上三十一味药(崔氏版本没有黄芩、桑白皮、桔梗、防风,共二十七味),都要求研磨精细,其中牛黄、麝香、犀角、朱砂、雄黄、禹余粮、巴豆单独研细,其余药物合在一起捣碎,用双层丝绢过筛,用白蜜调和,再捣三千杵,密封保存。破除封口之日,清晨空腹用酒送服三丸,如梧桐子大小,以排出三升恶水为佳。如果是突发暴病,不拘泥于清晨早晚皆可服用,但以引起吐泻为度。如果不吐不泻,再加一丸,或者增至三丸、五丸,必须达到吐泻的程度为止,不得限制丸数。如果病势强盛而药力不足则不吐不泻,并非其他原因。如果药效发得慢,用热饮汁送服。如果吐泻不止,吃两三口醋饭即可止住。服药期间忌食陈腐、臭秽、生冷、酸滑、粘腻的食物,大蒜、猪、鸡、鱼、狗、马、驴肉、白酒,以及行房事,需七日后方可进行。
第一天服药,第二天进补,可以吃新米,韭菜汁做羹粥,饮食三四顿很好,但也不能全饱。产妇禁止服用。
吐泻以后,常须闭口少说话,在无风处的温暖床铺和暖室中调养休息。如果旅行途中突发急病,没有饮水,用小便送服为佳。如果一岁以下小儿患病,让乳母服用两粒小豆大小的药量,也以引起吐泻为度。近病及突发急病都适用,多为久积的慢性病则少服,通常以轻微溏泄为度。突发重病濒死,服用三丸如小豆大小,引起吐泻即痊愈。突然患上中恶痉厥,服用二丸如小豆大小,用温水一合灌下使其咽下,轻微腹泻即痊愈。

In the exterior, sweat is produced; in the interior, direct purgation occurs. The name of this medicine is taboo/silenced, hence this formula has no name.
