西来甘露饮:清热解毒功效如神。凡是发热初期,发病五日以前,热势不退,痘疮颜色红紫,口渴,大便干结燥硬,服用此方后痘色即可转为红润。此方也治疗疹病患者出现的烦热、口干、咳嗽,疹色干枯粗糙,或者出现胡言乱语、气喘急促、睡眠不安等症状。
[制法] 丝瓜藤(在霜降节气后第三天,截取靠近根部二尺长的部分煎煮至断,取根头一节,倒插入新的瓦瓶中,上面用物体覆盖,防止灰尘飞入。第二天,准备一只好的新坛子,将瓶中的汁液倒入坛中,仍将藤段照前法插入瓶内。三天后,汁液收尽,将坛口封固收藏,听候随时取用。)
如果发热烦躁、口渴,但尚未见到红色斑点,取茜根一两,用水煎煮成浓汁两酒杯,混合丝瓜藤汁两酒杯,调和后服用,症状立即安定。痘疮发出时也会较轻。如果已经见到痘标,颜色红紫且稠密者,用紫草煎煮浓汤冲服,痘色便会变得红润。如果夹杂斑疹者,用犀角、紫草、茜根煎汤冲服,寒冷月份用酒煎煮冲服。因为这种汁液极能解毒清热,尤其治疗天行时疫(流行性传染病),每次取少许生姜汁,加蜂蜜调匀,服用有神奇功效。
浑元汁:即紫河车(胎盘)。不拘男女,初胎者尤为妙用。放入新瓦罐内封固,罐口上以碗覆盖,埋于土中,时间久了便化为水,即是此物。专门治疗气虚血热,痘色红紫、干枯黑陷等证候,以此汁液清补兼施,疗效立见。气虚严重者,用人参、紫草煎煮浓汤冲入服用。
蝉蜕膏:蝉蜕(去毒)、当归、防风、甘草、川芎、荆芥穗、升麻(各等分),加入白芍药。以上药物研为细末,用炼蜜制成如芡实大小的丸剂。每次服用一丸,用薄荷汤送服化下。
辰砂散:好辰砂(一钱)、丝瓜(靠近蒂部三寸,连子一起烧成灰,保留药性,此物促使痘疮发出最为奇妙)。以上研为细末。用蜜水调服。据说:痘多者可减少用量,痘少者可不用。或者用紫草、甘草汤调服,尤其佳妙。
For patients with smallpox or chickenpox presenting with fever but without chills, this prescription may be administered.
Xilai Ganlu Yin (West-coming Sweet Dew Decoction): Possesses miraculous efficacy in clearing heat and detoxifying. It is indicated for the initial stage of fever; if fever persists within five days of onset, accompanied by red-purple macules/pustules, thirst, and dry, constipated stool, administration will cause the lesions to turn rosy and healthy. It also treats irritability, dry mouth, cough, dry and rough rash texture, delirium, rapid breathing, and restlessness in patients with rashes.
[Preparation] Si Gua Teng (Luffa Vine): Three days after the Frost Descent solar term, cut a two-foot section near the root, boil until severed. Take one joint from the root head, insert it upside down into a new earthenware bottle, cover the top to prevent dust entry. The next day, pour the collected juice into a fine new jar, re-insert the vine segment as before. After three days, when the juice is fully collected, seal the jar tightly for storage and use as needed.
If fever, irritability, and thirst are present but no red spots have appeared yet, take one liang of Qian Gen (Madder Root), decoct in water to obtain two wine-cups of concentrated juice. Mix with two wine-cups of Si Gua Teng juice and administer. Symptoms will stabilize immediately, and the eruption of pustules will be mild. If the eruption has already begun, characterized by red-purple color and density, decoct Zi Cao (Arnebia Root/Lithospermum Root) into a thick liquid to flush/dissolve the medication, which will restore a rosy hue. If accompanied by macules, decoct Xi Jiao (Rhinoceros Horn - *Note: Substitute with Buffalo Horn in modern practice*), Zi Cao, and Qian Gen in water to flush/dissolve the medication; in cold months, use wine for decoction and flushing. This juice is highly effective in clearing heat and detoxifying, particularly for epidemic febrile diseases (Tianxing Shi Yi). A small amount of Sheng Jiang Zhi (Fresh Ginger Juice) mixed with honey can be taken orally for miraculous results.
Hunyuan Zhi (Primordial Fluid): Refers to Zi He Che (Placenta Humanum). Regardless of gender, placenta from a first pregnancy is especially efficacious. Place it in a new earthenware jar, seal it tightly, cover the opening with a bowl, and bury it in the soil. Over time, it transforms into water, which is the final product. It specifically treats conditions of Qi deficiency with Blood heat, such as red-purple, dry, shriveled, or blackened/collapsed pustules. This fluid provides both clearing and tonifying effects, yielding immediate results. For severe Qi deficiency, decoct Ren Shen (Ginseng Root) and Zi Cao together in a thick liquid to flush/dissolve the medication.
Chantui Gao (Cicada Slough Ointment): Chantui (Cicada Slough, toxic parts removed), Dang Gui (Angelica Sinensis Root), Fang Feng (Saposhnikovia Root), Gan Cao (Licorice Root), Chuan Xiong (Ligusticum Rhizome), Jing Jie Sui (Schizonepeta Flower Spike), Sheng Ma (Cimicifuga Rhizome) — all in equal proportions. Add Bai Shao Yao (White Peony Root). Grind all ingredients into fine powder. Use refined honey to form pills the size of a Chinese chestnut. Administer one pill per dose, dissolved and taken down with Bo He Tang (Mint Decoction).
Chensha San (Cinnabar Powder): Hao Chensha (Good Quality Cinnabar, one qian), Si Gua (Luffa Fruit, three inches near the stem, including seeds, burned to ash while retaining medicinal properties; this herb is excellent for promoting the eruption of smallpox). Grind into fine powder. Administer mixed with honey water. It is said that for abundant eruptions, reduce the dosage; for sparse eruptions, it may be omitted. Alternatively, mix with Zi Cao and Gan Cao decoction for superior efficacy.
