治疗痘症初起，表现为风寒引起的壮热、身体沉重、头痛，以及痰嗽严重。
方剂见卷五下表里门。
风寒邪气客居体表，所以用柴胡、紫苏、干葛来发散表邪。痰嗽壅滞于体内，所以用半夏、前胡、桔梗、陈皮、茯苓来安顿里气。
邪气去除之后……
在发热初期，尚未明确是痘疹时，形体虚弱的人适宜使用此方。
人参、白术、甘草、细辛、白茯苓、天花粉、白芍药、桔梗（各七分）。
人参、茯苓、白术、甘草，是为了防止正气虚弱。细辛、桔梗，是用来疏解阳气。天花粉、白芍药，是用来调和阴液。
凡是麻疹初起发热，尚未出疹的时候，唯恐误用药物。所以说在疹子未出之前，不宜用药。然而如果解表透疹得当，则毒邪自散，病情自然减轻。想要稳妥妥当，应当先以此方为主。
当归（二三钱）、芍药（酒炒一二钱）、防风（八分）、荆芥穗（一钱）、升麻（三分）、甘草（炙七……）

Treating the initial stage of smallpox, characterized by severe fever due to wind-cold, heavy body, headache, and profuse phlegm with cough.
The formula is found in Volume 5, Section on Exterior-Interior.
Wind-cold pathogens reside externally, therefore Chai Hu (Bupleuri Radix), Zi Su Ye (Perillae Folium), and Gan Ge (Puerariae Lobatae Radix) are used to release the exterior. Phlegm and cough are obstructed internally, therefore Ban Xia (Pinelliae Rhizoma), Qian Hu (Peucedani Radix), Jie Geng (Platycodonis Radix), Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium), and Fu Ling (Poria) are used to settle the interior.
Once the pathogen is eliminated...
At the beginning of fever, before it is clearly identified as smallpox, this is suitable for those with weak physical constitution.

Ren Shen, Fu Ling, Bai Zhu, and Gan Cao prevent deficiency. Xi Xin and Jie Geng disperse yang. Tian Hua Fen and Bai Shao Yao harmonize yin.
Regarding measles, during the initial fever before eruption, one must fear medication errors. Thus, it is said that before eruption, medication should not be used. However, if releasing the exterior and promoting eruption is handled appropriately, the toxin will dissipate, and the condition will naturally lessen. To seek safety and appropriateness, one should initially use this formula as the main treatment.
Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) (2-3 qian), Shao Yao (Paeoniae Radix) (1-2 qian, stir-fried with wine), Fang Feng (Saposhnikoviae Radix) (8 fen), Jing Jie Sui (Schizonepetae Spica) (1 qian), Sheng Ma (Cimicifugae Rhizoma) (3 fen), Zhi Gan Cao (Prepared Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (7...)
Treating smallpox/rash where cold weather causes dense pores and intense exterior heat.
The formula is found in Volume 3, Section on Exterior-Releasing.
Exterior-releasing medicines are categorized into three grades: acrid-cool, acrid-warm, and acrid-hot. In summer, exterior qi is easily dispersed, so acrid-cool herbs are appropriate. In spring and autumn, exterior qi is balanced, so acrid-warm herbs are appropriate.
Its applicable...
Whenever a child has a fever, observe for signs of smallpox. (Cold ears, cold fingers, cold feet, eyes appearing watery, reluctance to speak or laugh are such signs.)
Until spots appear.

Gao Gugeng stated: If after taking this decoction no spots appear, it indicates abundant toxin, and the symptoms will necessarily be severe. If heat is extreme, chest oppression occurs, delirium appears, and the waist feels weak. In winter, additions can be made...
