Xiaoke (Wasting and Thirsting Syndrome) is characterized by thirst without a corresponding increase in urination volume. This condition arises from the long-term accumulation of mineral drugs, such as Wushi Wan (Five-Mineral Pills), taken in youth, leading to the binding of mineral toxicity in the Kidneys and dysfunction of the Lower Jiao (Lower Burner).
For Xiaoke presenting with body heat, mental restlessness, headache, and inability to eat, use Maidong San (Ophiopogon Powder).
Maidong (Radix Ophiopogonis, 2 liang, heart removed) Maogen (Cimicifugae Rhizoma, 2 liang, sliced) Gualougen (Radix Trichosanthis, 2 liang) Lugeng (Bambusae Caulis Retinens, 1 liang, sliced) Shigao (Gypsum Fibrosum, 2 liang) Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae, 1 liang, honey-fried until slightly red and sliced)
Crush the above herbs into a coarse powder. Take 4 qian per dose. Add 1 zhong of water and 100 grains of wheat. Decoct until 6 fen remains. Strain. Take warm at any time.
For persistent Xiaoke accompanied by mental restlessness and confusion, this formula is suitable.
Tiefen (Plumbum Metallicum, 1 liang, finely ground) Maidong (Radix Ophiopogonis, 2 liang, heart removed and dried) Muli (Concha Ostreae, 1 liang, calcined to powder) Zhimu (Rhizoma Anemarrhenae, 1 liang) Huanglian (Rhizoma Coptidis, 2 liang, stamens removed) Kushen (Radix Sophorae Flavescentis, 1 or 2 liang, sliced) Gualougen (Radix Trichosanthis, 2 liang) Jinbo (Folium Aurum, 100 pieces, finely ground) Yinbo (Folium Argenti, 50 or 200 pieces, finely ground)
Pulverize the above herbs into a fine powder. Mix in the Tiefen and other ingredients evenly. Take 1 qian per dose mixed with thin rice gruel at any time.
For Xiaoke presenting with mental restlessness and headache, use Huangdan San (Minium Powder).
Huangdan (Minium, 3 fen, stir-fried until purple) Gualougen (Radix Trichosanthis, 1 liang) Qianhu (Radix Peucedani, 1 liang) Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae, 1 liang, honey-fried until slightly red and sliced) Zexie (Rhizoma Alismatis, 0.5 liang) Shigao (Gypsum Fibrosum, 1 liang, finely ground) Chishizhi (Halloysitum Rubrum, 0.5 liang, finely ground) Beimu (Bulbus Fritillariae Cirrhosae, 0.5 liang, baked until slightly yellow)
Pulverize the above herbs into a fine powder. Mix with the pre-ground ingredients evenly. Take 1 qian mixed with thin rice gruel at any time.
For persistent Xiaoke, this formula is suitable.
Huangdan (Minium, 1 liang, stir-fried until purple) Gualougen (Radix Trichosanthis, 1 liang) Maidong (Radix Ophiopogonis, 2 liang, heart removed and dried) Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae, 2 liang, honey-fried until slightly red and sliced) Chifuling (Poria Cocos with Red Cortex, 1 liang)
Pulverize the above herbs into a fine powder. Mix with Huangdan evenly. Take 1 qian mixed with warm water at any time.
