论述说:妊娠期间身体虚弱,感受风邪而损伤太阳经的经络,之后又遇到风寒相互搏结。发作时口噤(牙关紧闭)、背部强直,称为痉病。(又说)其症状表现为头目昏闷、不省人事,片刻后自行苏醒,过很久再次发作,称为风痉。也称为子痫,也称为子冒。严重的会出现角弓反张(身体向后弯曲如弓状)。
治疗妊娠中风,出现角弓反张、口噤、言语涩滞。用麻黄散。
麻黄(去节)一两,防风一两,独活一两,羚羊角(锉屑)一两,桂心一两,升麻一两,酸枣仁(炒)一两,甘草半两,秦艽半两,川芎三分,当归三分,杏仁(制)三分。
以上药物切碎,每次服用四钱。用水一盏,生姜四片,煎至六分,滤去药渣,加入竹沥半合,温服。
治疗妊娠中风,腰痛且强直,时常出现角弓反张。用防风葛根汤。
防风二两,葛根二两,川芎二两,生干地黄二两,杏仁(制)一两半,麻黄(去节)一两半,桂心一两,独活一两,甘草一两,防己一两。

《短剧》记载治疗妊娠突然昏闷,眼睛不能识人,片刻后苏醒,醒后又复发,也有不苏醒的,称为痓病。也称为子痫,也称为子冒。用葛根汤。如果有近处的竹子可以迅速获取,应当先制作竹沥汁,再制备汤药;如果竹子遥远无法立即获取,应当先制备汤药。这两种疗法只要掌握其中一种即可。竹沥特别擅长治疗各种闭证绝症,起死回生,不仅对妊娠产妇假死有效,小儿惊痫、金疮发背等病症,使用它也有效。制作竹沥的方法(见第三卷第一论)。
治疗妊娠临产月数,因受风邪,突然昏闷不识人,呕吐逆乱、眩晕跌倒,短暂清醒后又复发,称为子痫。
葛根二两,贝母(去心)二两,牡丹皮(去心)二两,木防己二两,防风二两,当归二两,川芎二两,白茯苓二两,桂心(熬)二两,泽泻二两,甘草二两,独活三两,石膏(碎)三两,人参三两。
以上药物细切,用水九升,煮取三升,分两次服用。贝母有助于顺利分娩,若未到临产月数者,可用升麻代替。忌食海藻、菘菜(白菜类)、醋制品。(详见第三卷第二论。也可参考其他方剂,详细选用。)
Discourse states: During pregnancy, the body is deficient. Upon contracting wind pathogen, the meridians and collaterals of the Taiyang (Greater Yang) are injured. Subsequently, wind-cold pathogens contend with each other. When it attacks, there is lockjaw (trismus) and stiffness of the back, termed Jing (spasm). (It is also said that) the signs include dizziness, oppression in the chest, and loss of consciousness. The patient recovers spontaneously after a short while, only to relapse after a long interval; this is termed Feng Jing (wind spasm). It is also named Zi Xian (infantile convulsion/eclampsia), or Zi Mao (pregnancy-related vertigo/fainting). In severe cases, opisthotonos (arching of the back) occurs.
For treating wind-stroke during pregnancy presenting with opisthotonos, lockjaw, and slurred speech, use Mahuang San (Ephedra Powder).
Mahuang (Ephedrae Herba, processed to remove joints) 1 liang, Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix) 1 liang, Duhuo (Angelicae Pubescentis Radix) 1 liang, Lingyangjiao (Saigae Tataricae Cornu, powdered) 1 liang, Guixin (Cinnamomi Cortex) 1 liang, Shengma (Bupleuri Radix) 1 liang, Suanzaoren (Ziziphi Spinosae Semen, stir-baked) 1 liang, Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) 0.5 liang, Qinjiao (Gentianae Macrophyllae Radix) 0.5 liang, Chuanxiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma) 3 fen, Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) 3 fen, Xingren (Armeniacae Semen Amarum, processed) 3 fen.
Crush the above herbs. Take 4 qian per dose. Add 1 sheng of water and 4 slices of fresh ginger. Decoct until reduced to 6 fen. Strain the dregs. Add 0.5 he of Zhuli (Bamboo Sap). Take warm.
For treating wind-stroke during pregnancy presenting with lower back pain, stiffness, and intermittent opisthotonos, use Fangfeng Gegen Tang (Saposhnikovia and Kudzu Root Decoction).
Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix) 2 liang, Gegen (Puerariae Lobatae Radix) 2 liang, Chuanxiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma) 2 liang, Shenggan Dihuang (Rehmanniae Radix Recens, dried) 2 liang, Xingren (Armeniacae Semen Amarum, processed) 1.5 liang, Mahuang (Ephedrae Herba, processed to remove joints) 1.5 liang, Guixin (Cinnamomi Cortex) 1 liang, Duhuo (Angelicae Pubescentis Radix) 1 liang, Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) 1 liang, Fangji (Stephaniae Tetrandrae Radix) 1 liang.
Crush the above herbs. Take 4 qian per dose. Add 1 sheng of water. Decoct until reduced to 7 fen. Strain the dregs. Take warm.
The "Duan Ju" text records the treatment for sudden fainting during pregnancy where the eyes cannot recognize people, followed by spontaneous recovery and recurrence, or sometimes failure to recover. This is termed Chi disease. It is also named Zi Xian (infantile convulsion/eclampsia), or Zi Mao (pregnancy-related vertigo/fainting). Use Gegen Tang (Kudzu Root Decoction). If bamboo is nearby and can be obtained quickly, prepare Zhuli (Bamboo Sap) first, then prepare the decoction; if bamboo is distant and cannot be obtained immediately, prepare the decoction first. Mastering either method suffices. Zhuli (Bamboo Sap) is particularly effective for treating various types of closure syndromes and resuscitating the critically ill. It is not only effective for pregnant women who appear dead but also for pediatric convulsions and sores from metal wounds. The method for preparing Zhuli (Bamboo Sap) is found in Volume 3, Discourse 1.
For treating pregnancy near term, where contraction of wind pathogen causes sudden fainting, inability to recognize people, vomiting, dizziness, and falling, with brief recovery followed by recurrence, this is named Zi Xian (infantile convulsion/eclampsia).
Gegen (Puerariae Lobatae Radix) 2 liang, Beimu (Fritillariae Thunbergii Bulbus, heart removed) 2 liang, Mudanpi (Moutan Cortex, heart removed) 2 liang, Mufangji (Stephaniae Membranaceae Radix) 2 liang, Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix) 2 liang, Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) 2 liang, Chuanxiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma) 2 liang, Baifuling (Poria) 2 liang, Guixin (Cinnamomi Cortex, roasted) 2 liang, Zexie (Alismatis Rhizoma) 2 liang, Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) 2 liang, Duhuo (Angelicae Pubescentis Radix) 3 liang, Shigao (Gypsum Fibrosum, crushed) 3 liang, Renshen (Ginseng Radix) 3 liang.
Cut the herbs finely. Add 9 sheng of water. Boil to obtain 3 sheng. Divide into two doses. Beimu (Fritillariae Thunbergii Bulbus) facilitates easy delivery. If not yet at term, substitute with Shengma (Bupleuri Radix). Avoid consuming Haizao (Sargassum), Songcai (Brassica pekinensis), and vinegar products. (See Volume 3, Discourse 2 for details. Other formulas may also be selected and used in detail.)
