上五味为末，以水七升，煮取二升半，去滓，纳胶令烊，分三服。说云∶小便利多白，
日夜数十行至一石，频服五日良。
论曰∶凡消渴病经百日以上，不得灸刺，灸刺则于疮上漏脓水不歇，遂至痈疽羸瘦而死
。亦忌有所误伤，但作针许大疮，所饮之水，皆于疮中变成脓水而出。若水出不止必死，慎
之慎之。初得患者，可如方灸刺之。
治消渴咽喉干，灸胃脘下输三穴各百壮，穴在背第八椎下横三寸。（一云灸胸堂五十壮。
又灸足太阳五十壮。）

阳气。又云∶止遗溺也。太溪、中封、然谷、太白、大都、趺阳、行间、大敦、隐白、涌泉，
凡此诸穴各一百壮，腹背两脚凡四十七处。其肾俞、腰目、关元、水道，此可灸三十壮，五
日一报，各得一百五十壮，佳。涌泉一处，可灸十壮，大敦、隐白、行间三处，可灸三壮，
余悉七壮，皆五日一报，满三灸可止也，若发，灸诸阴而不愈，宜灸诸阳，诸阳在脚表。并
灸肺俞募，按流注孔穴，壮数如灸阴家法。
小便数而少且难，用力辄失精者，令其人舒两手合掌，并两大命令齐急逼之，令两爪甲
相近，以一炷灸两爪甲本肉际。肉际方后自然有角令炷当角中，小侵入爪上，此两指共享一
炷也。亦灸脚大趾，与手同法，各三炷而已。经三日又灸之。
治疗虚热，小便通畅且次数多，因长期服用石散导致人体虚弱发热，当风受凉或贪凉引起的香港脚（一种以足部肿痛、麻木为特征的疾病），容易发作并伴有口渴、消肾（指消渴病伤及肾脏）的症状。
阿胶（二挺） 麻子（一升） 附子（一枚） 干姜（二两） 远志（四两）
以上五味药研成细末，用水七升，煎煮至取汁二升半，滤去药渣，加入阿胶使其溶化，分三次服用。据说：小便通畅且颜色发白，日夜数十次甚至达到一石之多，频繁服用五日效果良好。
论述说：凡是消渴病（糖尿病类疾病）病程超过百日以上的，禁止使用灸法和针刺法，如果进行灸刺，疮口会流出脓水不止，最终导致痈疽（严重的化脓性感染）、身体消瘦而死。也忌讳受到误伤，哪怕只是像针尖大小的伤口，所饮用的水都会从伤口变成脓水流出。如果水流不止必然死亡，务必谨慎再谨慎。刚患病的人，可以按照方剂说明进行灸刺治疗。
治疗消渴病导致的咽喉干燥，灸胃脘下输三穴，每穴各灸一百壮，穴位位于背部第八椎骨下方横开三寸处。（另一种说法是灸胸堂穴五十壮。另外灸足太阳膀胱经相关穴位五十壮。）
治疗消渴病，口干难以忍受的，灸小肠俞穴一百壮，横向间隔三寸进行灸治。
消渴病伴有咳嗽气逆的，灸手厥阴心包经相关穴位，壮数随患者年龄而定。
消渴病导致小便频数的，灸两手小指头端及两足小趾头端，并灸项部脊椎。
另外灸背部脾俞穴下方四寸，位于脊柱两侧的两处。所有上述灸法，都应随患者年龄决定壮数。另外灸肾俞穴两处。
另外灸腰目穴，在肾俞穴下方三寸，也在脊柱两旁各一寸半处。左右手手指按压寻找关元穴一处。另外两旁各二寸处有两处。还有阴市穴两处，位于膝盖上方，从伏兔穴向上三寸，临近膝盖处取穴，或者排成二三列进行灸治，间距一寸，这被称为“肾系”穴位，《黄帝内经》说：“伏兔穴下一寸”。曲泉、阴谷、阴陵泉、复溜，这些穴位对于制止小便频数效果最佳，且不损伤阳气。又说：也能治疗遗尿。太溪、中封、然谷、太白、大都、趺阳、行间、大敦、隐白、涌泉，这些穴位每个各灸一百壮，腹部、背部、双脚共四十七处。其中肾俞、腰目、关元、水道这四个穴位，每个可灸三十壮，每五天重复灸一次，总共可达一百五十壮，这样较好。涌泉穴一处，可灸十壮；大敦、隐白、行间三处，每处可灸三壮；其余穴位均灸七壮，都是每五天重复灸一次，满三次灸疗即可停止。如果发作时，灸治诸阴经穴位无效，应当灸治诸阳经穴位，诸阳经位于脚背表面。并灸肺俞穴和肺募穴，按照流注孔穴的方法，壮数参照灸治阴经穴位的方法。
小便频数且量少、排尿困难，用力时容易漏精的，让患者舒展双手手掌相对合拢，并将两个大拇指紧紧逼向一起，使两拇指指甲靠近，用一炷艾条灸在两拇指指甲根部肌肉交界处。肌肉交界处自然形成角状，让艾炷对准这个角中间，稍微侵入指甲上一点，这是两个拇指共用一炷艾条。也可以灸脚的大脚趾，方法与手部相同，各灸三炷即可。经过三天后再灸一次。
Treat deficiency-heat, where urination is clear and frequent, caused by excessive consumption of mineral powders (Shisan), leading to human deficiency-heat. It addresses Hongjiaojiao (Gouty arthritis/foot swelling) contracted from exposure to wind and cold or seeking coolness, which tends to flare up accompanied by thirst and Xiao Shen (Kidney involvement in Xiao Ke disease).
Ejiao (Donkey-hide gelatin, two sticks)
Hemp seed (Mazi, one sheng)
Prepared Aconite Root (Fuzi, one piece)
Dried Ginger (Ganjiang, two liang)
Polygala Root (Yuanzhi, four liang)
Grind the above five herbs into powder. Add seven sheng of water, boil until reduced to two and a half sheng, strain out the dregs, add the Ejiao to melt it, and divide into three doses. It is said: When urination is clear and frequent, occurring dozens of times a day and night, amounting to one dan, frequent administration for five days yields good results.
Discussion states: For patients with Xiao Ke disease (Diabetes mellitus-like condition) lasting more than one hundred days, moxibustion and acupuncture are contraindicated. If applied, pus and fluid will leak continuously from the sores, eventually leading to carbuncles and ulcers, emaciation, and death. One must also avoid accidental injury; even a wound as small as a needle prick will cause all ingested fluids to turn into pus and discharge from the wound. If the discharge does not stop, death is inevitable. Exercise utmost caution. For newly onset cases, moxibustion and acupuncture may be performed according to the prescription.
To treat Xiao Ke causing dry throat, moxa-burn the three points below Weiwanshu, each with one hundred moxa cones (Zhuang). The points are located three cun lateral to the spinous process of the eighth thoracic vertebra. (Another method suggests moxa-burning Xiongzhong fifty Zhuang. Additionally, moxa-burn Foot-Taiyang bladder meridian points fifty Zhuang.)
To treat Xiao Ke with unbearable dry mouth, moxa-burn Xiaochangshu with one hundred Zhuang, spaced three cun laterally.
For Xiao Ke with dry mouth and irritability, moxa-burn Foot-Jueyin liver meridian points with one hundred Zhuang.
Additionally, moxa-burn Yangchi with fifty Zhuang.
For Xiao Ke with cough and rebellious qi, moxa-burn Hand-Jueyin pericardium meridian points, with the number of Zhuang corresponding to the patient's age.
For Xiao Ke with frequent urination, moxa-burn the tips of both little fingers and both little toes, and moxa-burn the cervical spine area.
Additionally, moxa-burn one point at the center of the spinal column gap, and two points above Yaomu, totaling three sites.
Additionally, moxa-burn two points on either side of the spine, four cun below Pishu. All aforementioned moxibustions should use a number of Zhuang corresponding to the patient's age. Additionally, moxa-burn Shenshu at two locations.
Additionally, moxa-burn Yaomu, located three cun below Shenshu, also on both sides of the spine, one and a half cun lateral. Press with fingers to locate Guanyuan at one site. Additionally, two sites are located two cun lateral to these. Also, Yinshi at two sites, located three cun above the knee from Futu, near the knee. These can be arranged in two or three rows, one cun apart, named "Kidney System" (Huangdi Jing states: one cun below Futu). Ququan, Yinggu, Yinlingquan, and Fuliuxiu are excellent for stopping frequent urination without damaging Yang Qi. It is also said they treat enuresis. Taixi, Zhongfeng, RanGu, Taibai, Dada, Zuyang, Xingjian, Dadun, Yinbai, and Yongquan: each of these points is moxa-burned with one hundred Zhuang, totaling forty-seven sites on the abdomen, back, and feet. Among them, Shenshu, Yaomu, Guanyuan, and Shuidao can each be moxa-burned with thirty Zhuang, repeated every five days, reaching a total of one hundred fifty Zhuang, which is optimal. Yongquan (one site) can be moxa-burned with ten Zhuang; Dadun, Yinbai, and Xingjian (three sites) can each be moxa-burned with three Zhuang; all others with seven Zhuang. Repeat every five days. Stop after three courses of treatment. If symptoms recur and moxa-burning Yin meridian points fails, moxa-burn Yang meridian points, which are located on the dorsal surface of the foot. Also moxa-bear Feishu and its Mu point, following the flow-through acupoint method, with Zhuang counts similar to the Yin meridian moxibustion protocol.
For frequent, scanty, difficult urination accompanied by seminal emission upon exertion: Have the patient extend both hands and press palms together tightly, forcing the thumbs together until their nail beds are close. Moxa-burn the fleshy junction at the base of the thumbnails with one cone. The natural angle formed by the flesh should align with the cone, slightly penetrating the nail bed. Both thumbs share one cone. Similarly, moxa-burn the big toe of the foot using the same method, three cones each. Repeat this after three days.
