Formulas for Pacifying Worms (Note: Methods for pacifying Ascaris, such as Lizhong Tang and Qingzhong Tang, are covered in *Shanghan Guang Yao*, so omitted here.). In the palace of King Xiang, a concubine favored by Seventh Grand Marshal suddenly fell ill, vomiting several worms upon nausea, recurring frequently. The Marshal sought treatment without success; using insecticides increased worm expulsion. Sun Simiao was summoned. Sun said: "All six pulses are fine, not indicative of worms. Although vomiting worms, it is due to cold viscera causing worm unrest, displacing them to the upper diaphragm. Further insecticide use causes more distress to worms, leading to more vomiting." Sun prescribed uniform pills. Within 3-5 doses, vomiting stopped. Next day, pulses enlarged, previous medication prevented recurrence. Formula: Sulfur (Huangshi, 硫黄) and Prepared Aconite Root (Fuzi, 附子) (1 liang each, powdered), glutinous rice paste pills. Take 30 pills with rice drink. (*Ben Cao Gang Mu* citing Sun Simiao)

Eating raw rice: Men and women eating raw/cooked food causing stagnation in intestines/stomach leads to worm generation. Over time, craving for raw rice develops; otherwise, constant dissatisfaction, emaciation, yellow complexion, anorexia, endangering life. Use Atractylodes Rhizome (Cangzhu, 苍术), soaked in rice wash water overnight, chopped, baked, powdered. Make pills with steamed bread, size of Chinese walnut seeds. Take 50 pills before meals with rice drink, three times daily. Liu Qingxiao, a performer from Yichang, had a courtesan named Hua Cui (past puberty) suffering from this. Zhao Sheng, supervisor of Huimin Bureau, treated with this formula, cured in 20 days. Raw rice stagnates, dampness prevents grain digestion, causing this disease. Cangzhu removes dampness, warms stomach, aids digestion. (*Ben Cao Gang Mu* citing Yang Shi Jia Zang Jing Yan Fang). (Note: *Qian Jin* and *Wai Tai* have formulas for rice-craving syndrome but not specifically for worms, so omitted.)
