For wind-cold cough with severe cold, which is difficult to disperse, add Beixixin (Herba Asari) (0.7-0.8 qian or 1 qian). In severe winter cold, Mahuang (Herba Ephedrae) and Guizhi (Ramulus Cinnamomi) may be added. If wind predominates with mild pathogen, Fangfeng (Radix Saposhnikoviae) (1 qian) or Ziye (Folium Perillae) may be added.
