论曰。经云风者百病之始。善行而数变。行者动也。风本生于热。以热为本。以风为标。凡言风者热也。
叔和云。热则生风。冷生气。是以热则风动。宜以静胜其躁。是养血也。治须少汗。亦宜少下。多汗则虚其卫。
多下则损其荣。汗下各得其宜。然后宜治在经。虽有汗下之戒。而有中脏中腑之说。中腑者。宜汗之。中脏者。
宜下之。此虽合汗下。亦不可过也。仲景曰。汗多则亡阳。下多则亡阴。亡阳则损其气。亡阴则损其形。经曰
血气者人之神。不可不谨养也。初谓表里不和。须汗下之。表里已和。是宜治之在经也。其中腑者。面加五色。
有表证。脉浮而恶风恶寒拘急不仁。或中身之后。或中身之前。或中身之侧。皆曰中腑也。其治多易。中脏者。
唇吻不收。舌不转而失音。鼻不闻香臭。耳聋而眼瞀。大小便秘结。皆曰中脏也。其治多难。经曰六腑不和。
流经为痈。五脏不和。九窍不通。若外无留结。内无不通。必知在经也。初证既定。宜以大药养之。当顺时令
而调阴阳。安脏腑而和荣卫。察病机。审气宜。而少有不愈者。若风中腑者。先以加减续命汤。随证发其表。
若忽中脏者。则大便多秘涩。宜以三化汤通其滞。表里证已定。别无他变。故以大药和治之。大抵中腑者。多
着四肢。中脏者。多滞九窍。虽中腑者多兼中脏之证。至于舌强失音。久服大药。能自愈也。有中风湿者。
夏月多有之。其证身重如山。不能转侧。宜服除湿去热之药治之。不可用针。可用灸。今具六经续命汤。通治
八风五痹痿厥等疾。以一岁为总。以六经为别。春夏加石膏知母黄芩。秋冬加桂附。又于六经别药。随证细分
加减。自古名医。不能越此。
凡觉中风。必先审六经之候。慎勿用大热药乌附之类。故阳剂刚胜。积火燎原。为消狂疮肿之属。则天癸
竭而荣卫涸。是以中风有此诫。故经所谓邪风之至。疾如风雨。易曰。挠万物者。莫疾乎风。若感之浅者留于肌
肤。感之深者达于骨髓。盖祸患之机。藏于细微。非常人之豫见。及其至也。虽智者不能善其后。是以圣人之
教下。皆谓之虚邪贼风。避之有时。故中风者。俱有先兆之证。凡人如觉大拇指及次指麻木不仁。或手足不用。
或肌肉蠕动者。三年内必有大风之至。经曰肌肉蠕动。名曰微风。宜先服八风散愈风汤天麻丸。各一料为效。
故手大指次指手太阴阳明经。风多着此经也。先服祛风涤热之剂。辛凉之药。治内外之邪。是以圣人治未病。
不治已病。又曰。善治者治皮毛。是止于萌芽也。故初成获愈。固久者伐形。是治病之先也。
中风之人。如小便不利。不可以药利之。既得自汗。则津液外亡。小便自少。若利之。使荣卫枯竭。无以
制火。烦热愈甚。当候热退汗止。小便自行也。兼此证乃阳明。大忌利小便。须当识此。中风之人能食者。
凡中风病。多能食。盖甲己化土。脾盛故能食。由是多食则脾气愈盛。土克制肾水。水亏则病增剧也。病宜广
服药。不欲多食。病能自愈。中风多食。风木盛也。盛则克脾。脾受敌。求助于食。经曰实则梦与。虚则梦取。
是也。当泻肝木。治风安脾。脾安则食少。是其效也。
中风之人。不宜用龙麝犀珠。譬之提铃巡于街。使盗者伏而不出。益使风邪入于骨髓。如油入面。莫能出
也。此之类焉。若痰潮不省。昏愦不知事。宜用药下其痰涎。故风者乃百病之长。庸可忽诸。

论述说：医经记载，风是各种疾病的起始因素。风邪善于游走且变化迅速。“行”意味着运动。风的本质源于热，以热为本源，以风为表象。凡是提到“风”，实际上都是指热邪。
王叔和说：热则生风，冷则生气。因此热会导致风动，应当用静来克制躁动，这就是养血的道理。治疗时需要避免过度发汗，也适宜适度通下。如果发汗过多，就会使卫气虚弱；如果攻下过多，就会损伤营血。发汗与攻下都要掌握适当的度，然后才适宜在经脉层面进行治疗。虽然有关于发汗和攻下的禁忌，但仍有中腑和中脏的区分。病在中腑者，适宜用发汗法；病在中脏者，适宜用攻下法。这虽然符合发汗和攻下的原则，但也不可过度。张仲景说：发汗过多会耗亡阳气，攻下过多会耗亡阴液。亡阳会损伤元气，亡阴会损伤形体。医经说：血和气是人的精神所在，不可不谨慎调养。初期认为表里不和，需要发汗或攻下；表里已经调和，就适宜在经脉层面治疗。其中，病在中腑的，面色会出现五色异常，有表证，脉象浮而恶风恶寒，肢体拘急麻木不仁。无论是身体后部、前部还是侧面受邪，都称为中腑。这种病症治疗相对容易。病在中脏的，口唇松弛不收，舌体转动不灵导致失音，鼻子闻不到香臭，耳朵聋了眼睛昏花，大小便便秘不通，都称为中脏。这种病症治疗比较困难。医经说：六腑不和，经络就会发生痈肿；五脏不和，九窍就会闭塞。如果外部没有留滞结聚，内部没有不通畅，必定知道病在经脉。初起症状确定后，适宜用大药滋养。应当顺应时令来调理阴阳，安顿脏腑来调和营卫。审察病机，审视气宜，很少有治不好的。如果是风中腑，先用加减续命汤，根据证候发散表邪。如果突然中脏，通常大便多秘涩，适宜用三化汤通畅其滞塞。表里证候已定，没有其他变故，所以用大药调和治疗。大致来说，中腑的病，多侵犯四肢；中脏的病，多阻滞九窍。虽然中腑常兼有中脏的症状，但至于舌强失音，长期服用大药，也能自愈。有中风夹湿的情况，夏季多见。症状是身体沉重如坐山中，不能翻身侧卧，适宜服用除湿去热的药物治疗。不可用针刺，可以用艾灸。现在列出六经续命汤，通用治疗八风、五痹、痿厥等疾病。以一年为总纲，以六经为区别。春夏季节加入石膏、知母、黄芩；秋冬季节加入桂枝、附子。又在六经别药的基础上，根据证候细分加减。自古以来的名医，都不能超越这个范围。
凡是感觉中风，必须先审察六经的证候，千万不要使用乌头、附子等大热药物。因为阳性的药物刚烈猛烈，积聚的火势如同燎原，会导致消渴、发狂、疮肿等病症，致使天癸枯竭，营卫干涸。因此对于中风有此告诫。所以医经所谓邪风到来，快如风雨。《易经》说：搅动万物的，没有比风更快的了。如果感受较浅，邪气停留在肌肤；如果感受较深，邪气直达骨髓。祸患的契机，隐藏在细微之处，不是普通人能预先察觉的。等到病发之时，即使是智者也不能妥善处理后事。所以圣人的教导下属，都将这些称为虚邪贼风，要按时避开。因此中风患者，都有先兆症状。凡人如果觉得大拇指和第二指麻木不仁，或者手足不能活动，或者肌肉跳动，三年内必然会有严重的风邪到来。医经说：肌肉跳动，名叫微风。适宜先服用八风散、愈风汤、天麻丸，各一料作为疗效标准。因为手大拇指和第二指属于手太阴肺经和手阳明大肠经，风邪多侵犯这两条经脉。先服用祛风涤热的药剂，辛凉的药物，治疗内外的邪气。所以圣人治疗未病，而不是治疗已病。又说：善于治疗的医生治疗皮毛，这是在萌芽阶段制止疾病。所以初起时获得痊愈，固然长久患病则损伤形体，这是治病的首要步骤。
中风患者，如果小便不利，不可以用药强行利尿。既然已经有自汗，津液就会外泄，小便自然减少。如果强行利尿，会使营卫枯竭，无法制约火邪，烦热会更加严重。应当等待热退汗止，小便自然会恢复。兼有此证候的属于阳明经，最忌利小便，必须认识这一点。中风患者能吃东西的，凡中风病，大多食欲旺盛。这是因为甲己化土，脾土旺盛所以能食。由于多吃东西，脾气更加旺盛，土克制肾水，肾水亏损则病情加重。生病期间应该广泛服药，不想多吃食物，病就能自愈。中风多食，是因为风木旺盛。木盛则克脾，脾受克制，求助于食物。医经说：实证梦见给予，虚证梦见索取，就是这个道理。应当泻肝木，治风安脾。脾安宁了，食欲就会减少，这就是疗效。
中风患者，不宜使用龙脑、麝香、犀角、珍珠。这就好比提着铃铛在街上巡逻，使盗贼潜伏不出来，反而使风邪深入骨髓，像油渗入面粉一样，无法取出。这类情况就是如此。如果痰涎上涌不省人事，昏迷不知事情，适宜用药攻下痰涎。所以风是百病之长，怎么可以忽视呢？
小续命汤
麻黄（去节） 人参 黄芩 芍药 防己 桂枝 川芎 甘草（各一两） 防风（一两半） 附子（半两）
杏仁（一两）
以上除附子、杏仁外，捣成粗末，然后放入这两味药混合均匀。每次服用五到七钱。
用水一盏半，生姜五片，煎至一盏，去渣滓，稍热时服用。饭前服用。
凡是中风，如果不审察六经进行加减，虽然治疗也不能去除邪气。《内经》说：腠理开则淅然寒冷，腠理闭则发热而胸闷。知道暴感中风邪气，适宜先用加减续命汤，根据证候治疗。
中风无汗恶寒，用麻黄续命汤主治。
麻黄 防风 杏仁
在本方基础上加倍用量。适宜针刺太阳经至阴穴出血，昆仑穴，阳跷穴。
中风有汗恶风，用桂枝续命汤主治。
桂枝 芍药 杏仁
在本方基础上加倍用量。适宜针刺风府穴。以上两种证候，都是太阳经中风。
中风无汗身热，不恶寒，用白虎续命汤主治。
石膏 知母（在一料药中各加二两） 甘草（根据本方加一倍）
中风有汗身热，不恶风，用葛根续命汤主治。
葛根（二两） 桂枝 黄芩（根据本方加一倍）
适宜针刺陷谷穴，刺厉兑穴。针刺陷谷穴，是为了去除阳明经的贼邪；刺厉兑穴，是为了泻阳明经的实邪。以上两种证候，是阳明经中风。
中风无汗身凉，用附子续命汤主治。
附子（加一倍） 干姜（加二两） 甘草（加三两）
适宜刺隐白穴，以去除太阴经的贼邪。这一证候是太阴经中风。
中风有汗无热，用桂枝续命汤主治。
桂枝 附子 甘草（根据本方加一倍）
适宜针刺太溪穴。这一证候是少阴经中风。
中风六证混淆，归属于少阳、厥阴。或者肢节挛痛，或者麻木不仁，适宜用羌活连翘续命汤主治。
小续命汤（八两） 加羌活（四两） 加连翘（六两）
古代的续命汤，混淆而没有六种证候的区别。现在分别按经脉治疗，又分经针刺。厥阴经的井穴是大敦，针刺以疏通经脉。少阳经的穴位是绝骨，艾灸以引导热邪。这是针灸同象法，是治疗的大体原则。
中风外部没有六经的形证，内部没有大小便的阻格，知道是血弱不能养筋，所以手足不能运动，舌强不能言语。适宜养血，筋脉自然荣润。用大秦艽汤主治。
秦艽（三两） 甘草（二两） 川芎（二两） 当归（二两） 白芍药（二两） 细辛（半两） 川羌活 防风 黄芩（各一两） 石膏（二两） 吴白芷（一两） 白术（一两） 生地黄（一两） 熟地黄（一两） 白茯苓（一两） 川独活（二两）
以上十六味药。每次服用一两，水煎去渣，随时温服。如果遇到阴天，加生姜七八片同煎。如果心下痞满，每两药加枳实一钱同煎。
中风外部有六经的形证，先用加减续命汤，根据证候治疗。内部有大小便的阻格，再用三化汤主治。
浓朴 大黄 枳实 羌活（各等分）
以上药捣碎如麻豆大小。每次服用三两，水三升，煎至一升半，整天服用。以轻微腹泻为度，随时服用。医法说：四肢不能举起，俗话叫瘫痪。所以医经所谓太过则让人四肢不能举起。又说：土太过则敦阜。阜是高，敦是厚。既厚又高，就要除去。这真是所谓的膏粱之疾，如果不是肝肾经虚，怎么能明白呢？医经所谓三阳三阴发病，成为偏枯、痿易、四肢不能举起。王冰注解说：三阴不足，引发偏枯；三阳有余，则为痿易。易叫做变易，常用而痿弱无力。其治疗原则是泻，让气弱阳衰，土平而痊愈。或者用三化汤、调胃承气汤，选择使用。如果脾虚则不使用。医经所谓土不及则卑陷。卑是低下，陷是坑。所以脾病四肢不用。四肢都禀受气于胃，但不能到达经脉，必须通过脾才能禀受。现在脾不能帮助胃运行津液，四肢不能禀受水谷之气，气一天天衰弱，脉道不通利，筋骨肌肉都没有气产生，所以不能用。其治疗可以补，用十全散加减四物汤，去邪留正。
愈风汤 中风证候内邪已除，外邪已尽，应当服用此药，以通行导引诸经。长期服用，大风悉去。即使有微邪，只从此药加减治疗。然而治病的方法，不可失去通塞的原则。或者一气之微汗，或者一旬之通利，这样是常规治疗方法。久了则清浊自分，营卫自和。如果初觉风动，服用此药不会跌倒。

以上药。每次服用一两，水二盏，煎至一盏，去渣温服。如果遇到阴天，加生姜煎。空腹服一次，临睡前再煎药渣服用。都要在饭后远隔时间服用。空腹服一次。下面两个丹丸，是重剂。临睡前服一次。下面四个白丹，是轻剂。动则安神，静则清肺。
假设一气之微汗，用愈风汤三两，麻黄一两，均分为四服。一服加生姜五片，空腹服，用粥送下。得到微汗就好。
如一旬之通利，用愈风汤三两，大黄一两，也均分为四服。像前面那样煎，临睡前服。得利就妙。常服之药，不可失去四时的转换。如在望春大寒之后，加半夏二两，共四两；柴胡二两，共四两；人参二两，共四两。这叫迎而夺少阳之气。初夏之月，加石膏二两，共六两；黄芩二两，共五两；知母二两，共四两。这叫迎而夺阳明之气。季夏之月，加防己二两，共四两；白术二两，茯苓二两，共五两。这叫胜脾土之湿。初秋大暑后，加浓朴二两，共四两；藿香二两，桂一两，共二两。这叫迎而夺太阴之气。霜降之后望冬，加附子一两，桂一两，共二两；当归二两，共四两。这叫胜少阴之气。得春减冬，四季类似。虽然立法于四时的加减，又适宜在临病之际，审察病的虚实热寒，土地之宜，邪气的多少。此药具备七情六欲四气，不要使五脏偏胜，以及不动于营卫。如风秘服用它，则永不燥结。如久泻服用它，则能自我调节。初觉风气，便能服用此药，以及新方中的天麻丸各一料，互为表里，是治未病的胜药。以及已病者，更宜常服。不问男子妇人，以及小儿惊痫搐急慢惊风等病，服用神效。如解利四时伤风，随四时加减法。又治疗脾肾虚，筋弱语言难，精神昏愦，以及治疗内弱风湿。内弱者，乃是风湿火，先体重者，乃是风湿。土余内弱之为病，或者一臂肢体偏枯，或者肥而半身不遂，或者恐而健忘，喜欢多思。所以思忘之道，都是情不足。因此心乱则百病生，心静则万病悉去。所以此药能安心养神，调阴阳无偏胜及不动营卫。

Commentary states: The medical classics record that wind is the beginning of all diseases. Wind moves freely and changes frequently. "Movement" implies motion. The essence of wind originates from heat, with heat as the root and wind as the manifestation. Whenever "wind" is mentioned, it actually refers to heat pathogen.
Wang Shuhe said: Heat generates wind, while cold generates qi. Therefore, heat causes wind movement, and one should use stillness to overcome restlessness; this is the principle of nourishing blood. Treatment requires avoiding excessive sweating and also appropriating mild purgation. Excessive sweating will weaken Wei Qi (Defensive Qi), while excessive purgation will damage Ying Blood (Nutritive Blood). Both sweating and purgation must be applied appropriately before treating at the meridian level. Although there are warnings against sweating and purgation, there remains a distinction between involvement of the Fu organs and the Zang organs. For disease involving the Fu organs, sweating is appropriate; for disease involving the Zang organs, purgation is appropriate. While this aligns with sweating and purgation principles, excess must be avoided. Zhang Zhongjing stated: Excessive sweating leads to loss of Yang Qi, while excessive purgation leads to loss of Yin fluids. Loss of Yang damages vital energy, and loss of Yin damages the physical form. The classics state: Blood and Qi are the spirit of humans and must be carefully nurtured. Initially, if exterior and interior are disharmonious, sweating or purgation is required; once exterior and interior are harmonized, treatment should focus on the meridians. In cases of Fu organ involvement, the face may show five colors, with exterior signs such as floating pulse, aversion to wind and cold, limb stiffness, numbness, and insensitivity. Whether affecting the posterior, anterior, or lateral aspects of the body, this is called "Wind striking the Fu organs." This condition is relatively easy to treat. In cases of Zang organ involvement, the lips and mouth may hang loose, the tongue may be immobile causing aphasia, the nose may lose smell, ears may become deaf, eyes may be dim, and bowel/bladder obstruction may occur. This is called "Wind striking the Zang organs." This condition is difficult to treat. The classics state: Disharmony in the six Fu organs leads to sores in the meridians; disharmony in the five Zang organs leads to blockage of the nine orifices. If there is no stagnation externally and no blockage internally, the disease is certainly located in the meridians. Once initial symptoms are confirmed, it is appropriate to use major tonics to nourish. One should adjust Yin and Yang according to seasons, settle the Zang and Fu organs, and harmonize Ying and Wei. By examining pathogenesis and assessing Qi suitability, few cases fail to heal. If wind strikes the Fu organs, first use Modified Xuming Decoction to release the exterior according to symptoms. If suddenly striking the Zang organs, stool is often constipated; Sanhua Decoction is appropriate to clear stagnation. Once exterior and interior signs are stable without other changes, major tonics are used for harmonious treatment. Generally, wind striking the Fu organs affects the four limbs, while wind striking the Zang organs blocks the nine orifices. Although Fu organ involvement often includes Zang organ symptoms, conditions like stiff tongue and aphasia can heal with long-term use of major tonics. Cases of wind-dampness are common in summer, presenting with heaviness like sitting in mountains, inability to turn over, treated with dampness-dispelling and heat-clearing herbs. Acupuncture is contraindicated; moxibustion is suitable. Now listing the Six Meridian Xuming Decoctions to generally treat Eight Winds, Five Obstructions, Atrophy, and Cold/Heat disorders. The annual cycle is the general framework, differentiated by six meridians. Add Shi Gao (Gypsum Fibrosum), Zhi Mu (Anemarrhenae Rhizoma), Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix) in spring and summer; add Gui Zhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus) and Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata) in autumn and winter. Further sub-divide and modify based on specific meridian prescriptions. Ancient famous physicians could not exceed this scope.
Whenever stroke is suspected, one must first examine the six meridian patterns and strictly avoid using hot drugs like Wu Tou (Aconiti Radix) and Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata). Yang agents are too potent; accumulated fire spreads like a prairie fire, leading to conditions like Xiao Ke (Wasting and Thirsting), Kuang Zheng (Mania), Chuang Zhong (Sores and Swellings), causing Tian Gui (Menstruation/Reproductive Essence) to exhaust and Ying-Wei to dry up. Hence this warning for stroke. As the classics say, evil wind arrives swiftly like wind and rain. The I Ching says: Nothing agitates things faster than wind. If invasion is shallow, pathogens remain in skin and muscles; if deep, they reach bone marrow. Disaster hides in subtleties, unseen by ordinary people. When it arrives, even the wise cannot manage the aftermath. Thus, sages teach avoiding "empty evil and thief wind" at proper times. Stroke always has prodromal signs. If one feels numbness or insensitivity in the thumb and index finger, or limb immobility, or muscle twitching, severe wind disease will likely occur within three years. The classics state: Muscle twitching is called "Minor Wind." It is appropriate to first take Ba Feng San (Eight Wind Powder), Yu Feng Tang (Wind-Dispelling Decoction), and Tian Ma Wan (Gastrodia Pill), each one dose for efficacy. This is because the thumb and index finger belong to the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian and Hand Yangming Large Intestine Meridian, where wind pathogens often lodge. First take wind-dispelling and heat-purging agents, acrid-cool herbs to treat internal and external pathogens. Thus, sages treat disease before it arises, not after. It is also said: A good healer treats the hair and skin, stopping disease at its萌芽 (bud stage). Early cure prevents long-term damage to the form, which is the priority in treatment.
For stroke patients with difficulty urinating, do not use diuretic drugs. Since spontaneous sweating has occurred, body fluids are lost externally, and urine volume naturally decreases. Diuretics would deplete Ying-Wei, failing to control fire, worsening irritability and heat. Wait for heat to subside and sweating to stop; urination will resume naturally. This pattern belongs to the Yangming Meridian; diuretics are strictly taboo. Recognize this. Stroke patients who can eat often have increased appetite due to Jia-Ji transforming into Earth, making Spleen Qi strong. Overeating strengthens Spleen Qi further; Earth controls Kidney Water. Water deficiency worsens the disease. During illness, widely administer medicine but restrict food intake to allow natural healing. Excessive eating in stroke indicates flourishing Wind-Wood. Wood excess attacks Spleen; Spleen seeks help from food. The classics state: Excess dreams of giving, deficiency dreams of taking. Treat by draining Liver Wood, calming wind, and protecting Spleen. When Spleen is calm, appetite decreases—this is the effect.
Stroke patients should not use Long Nao (Borneolum Syntheticum), She Xiang (Moschus), Xi Jiao (Rhinocerotis Cornu), or Zhu Sha (Cinnabar). This is like patrolling streets with bells, hiding thieves but allowing wind pathogens to enter bone marrow like oil in flour, impossible to remove. Such cases exist. If phlegm surges causing unconsciousness and confusion, use drugs to purge phlegm-saliva. Wind is the leader of hundred diseases; how can it be ignored?
Xiao Xuming Tang (Minor Continuation Life Decoction)
Ma Huang (Ephedrae Herba, removed nodes) Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma) Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix) Shao Yao (Paeoniae Radix) Fang Ji (Stephaniae Tetrandrae Radix) Gui Zhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus) Chuan Xiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma) Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (each 1 liang) Fang Feng (Saposhnikoviae Radix) (1.5 liang) Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata) (0.5 liang)
Xing Ren (Armeniacae Semen Amarum) (1 liang)
Except for Fu Zi and Xing Ren, grind the others into coarse powder. Then mix in the two remaining ingredients evenly. Take 5-7 qian per dose.
Boil with 1.5 cups of water and 5 slices of fresh ginger until reduced to 1 cup. Strain and drink warm before meals.
If stroke is treated without examining six meridian modifications, pathogens cannot be expelled. The Neijing states: Open pores cause chills; closed pores cause fever and chest stuffiness. Knowing acute wind strike, first use Modified Xuming Decoction according to symptoms.
Stroke with no sweat and aversion to cold: Ma Huang Xuming Tang is indicated.
Ma Huang (Ephedrae Herba) Fang Feng (Saposhnikoviae Radix) Xing Ren (Armeniacae Semen Amarum)
Double the dosage of this formula. Acupuncture at Taiyang Meridian points Zhiyin (BL67) for bleeding, Kunlun (BL60), and Yang Qiao (BL62) is recommended.
Stroke with sweat and aversion to wind: Gui Zhi Xuming Tang is indicated.
Gui Zhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus) Shao Yao (Paeoniae Radix) Xing Ren (Armeniacae Semen Amarum)
Double the dosage. Acupuncture at Fengfu (DU16) is recommended. Both cases represent Taiyang Meridian stroke.
Stroke with no sweat, body heat, no aversion to cold: Bai Hu Xuming Tang is indicated.
Shi Gao (Gypsum Fibrosum) Zhi Mu (Anemarrhenae Rhizoma) (add 2 liang each to the base formula) Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (double the base amount)
Stroke with sweat, body heat, no aversion to wind: Ge Gen Xuming Tang is indicated.
Ge Gen (Puerariae Lobatae Radix) (2 liang) Gui Zhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus) Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix) (double the base amount)
Acupuncture at Xangu (ST43) and stimulation of Li Dui (ST45) are recommended. Puncturing Xangu removes the "thief" of the Yangming Meridian; stimulating Li Dui drains excess Yangming. These cases represent Yangming Meridian stroke.
Stroke with no sweat, cool body: Fu Zi Xuming Tang is indicated.
Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata) (double) Gan Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma) (add 2 liang) Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (add 3 liang)
Stimulate Yinbai (SP1) to remove the "thief" of the Taiyin Meridian. This case represents Taiyin Meridian stroke.
Stroke with sweat, no heat: Gui Zhi Xuming Tang is indicated.
Gui Zhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus) Fu Zi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata) Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (double the base amount)
Acupuncture at Taixi (KI3) is recommended. This case represents Shaoyin Meridian stroke.
Confusion of six stroke patterns attributed to Shaoyang and Jueyin meridians, with joint spasms/pain or numbness: Qiang Huo Lian Qiao Xuming Tang is indicated.
Xiao Xuming Tang (8 liang) + Qiang Huo (Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix) (4 liang) + Lian Qiao (Forsythiae Fructus) (6 liang)
Ancient Xuming formulas lacked differentiation of six patterns. Now treated by meridian differentiation and acupuncture. Jueyin Jingwell point Dadun (LR1) is needled to unblock the meridian. Shaoyang point Jiegu (GB39) is moxa-ed to guide out heat. This is the principle of acupuncture-moxibustion correspondence.
Stroke with no exterior six-meridian signs and no internal bowel/bladder obstruction, knowing blood deficiency fails to nourish sinews causing limb immobility and stiff tongue: Nourish blood to restore sinew nutrition. Da Qin Jiao Tang is indicated.
Qin Jiao (Gentianae Macrophyllae Radix) (3 liang) Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (2 liang) Chuan Xiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma) (2 liang) Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) (2 liang) Bai Shao Yao (Paeoniae Radix Alba) (2 liang) Xi Xin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma) (0.5 liang) Chuan Qiang Huo (Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix) Fang Feng (Saposhnikoviae Radix) Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix) (each 1 liang) Shi Gao (Gypsum Fibrosum) (2 liang) Wu Bai Zhi (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix) (1 liang) Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma) (1 liang) Sheng Di Huang (Rehmanniae Radix) (1 liang) Shu Di Huang (Rehmanniae Radix Preparata) (1 liang) Bai Fu Ling (Poria) (1 liang) Chuan Du Huo (Angelicae Pubescentis Radix) (2 liang)
Sixteen ingredients. Take 1 liang per dose, decoct in water, strain, and drink warm at any time. On cloudy days, add 7-8 slices of fresh ginger. If epigastric fullness occurs, add Zhi Shi (Aurantii Fructus) 1 qian per liang of herbs.
Stroke with exterior six-meridian signs: First use Modified Xuming Tang according to symptoms. With internal bowel/bladder obstruction: Use Sanhua Tang.
Hou Po (Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex) Da Huang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma) Zhi Shi (Aurantii Fructus) Qiang Huo (Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix) (equal parts)
Crush to size of hemp seeds. Take 3 liang per dose, boil in 3 sheng of water until 1.5 sheng remains. Drink throughout the day. Aim for mild laxation. The method states: Inability to lift limbs is commonly called paralysis. Classics say: Excess causes limb immobility. Also: Earth excess leads to "Dun Fu" (high mounds). Dun means thick, Fu means high. High and thick earth must be cleared. This is truly a disease of rich food. How else to explain it? Classics state: Pathogenesis of Three Yang and Three Yin leads to hemiplegia, atrophy, and ease of change. Wang Bing notes: Yin deficiency causes hemiplegia; Yang excess causes atrophy. Yi means change; frequent use leads to weakness. Treatment involves purging to weaken Qi, reduce Yang, and balance Earth. Or use Sanhua Tang or Tiao Wei Cheng Qi Tang. Do not use if Spleen is deficient. Classics state: Earth deficiency leads to "Bei Xian" (low depressions). Thus Spleen disease causes limb immobility. Limbs receive Qi from Stomach but must pass through Spleen to reach meridians. Now Spleen cannot transport fluids from Stomach; limbs lack Grain Qi. Qi declines daily, meridians obstruct, sinews/bones/muscles lack Qi generation, hence immobility. Treatment can involve tonification: Shi Quan San modified with Si Wu Tang to expel evil and preserve righteousness.
Yu Feng Tang (Wind-Dispelling Decoction)
After internal evil is cleared and external evil exhausted, take this medicine to guide Qi through meridians. Long-term use eliminates major wind. Even minor pathogens are treated by modifying this formula. However, treatment methods must not lose the balance of unblocking and closing. Either induce slight sweating over a period, or promote mild laxation over ten days. This is standard therapy. Eventually, clear and turbid separate, Ying and Wei harmonize. If early wind signs appear, taking this prevents falling.
Qiang Huo (Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix) Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) Fang Feng (Saposhnikoviae Radix) Man Jing Zi (Viticis Fructus) Chuan Xiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma) Xi Xin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma) Zhi Ke (Aurantii Fructus Immaturus) Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma) Ma Huang (Ephedrae Herba) Gan Ju (Chrysanthemi Flos) Bo He (Menthae Haplocalycis Herba) Gou Qi Zi (Lycii Fructus) Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) Zhi Mu (Anemarrhenae Rhizoma) Di Gu Pi (Lycii Cortex) Huang [Missing Character?] Du Huo (Angelicae Pubescentis Radix) Du Zhong (Eucommiae Cortex) Wu Bai Zhi (Angelicae Dahuricae Radix) Qin Jiao (Gentianae Macrophyllae Radix) Chai Hu (Bupleuri Radix) Ban Xia (Pinelliae Rhizoma) Qian Hu (Peucedani Radix) Hou Po (Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex) Shu Di Huang (Rehmanniae Radix Preparata) Fang Ji (Stephaniae Tetrandrae Radix) (each 2 liang) Fu Ling (Poria) Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix) (each 3 liang) Shi Gao (Gypsum Fibrosum) (4 liang) Shao Yao (Paeoniae Radix) (3 liang) Sheng Di Huang (Rehmanniae Radix) Cang Zhu (Atractylodis Rhizoma) (each 4 liang) Gui Zhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus) (1 liang)
Thirty-three ingredients totaling 74 liang.
Take 1 liang per dose, boil in 2 cups of water until 1 cup remains. Strain and drink warm. On cloudy days, add fresh ginger. Take one dose on an empty stomach, and another dose of the dregs before bed. Always take well away from meals. Empty stomach dose. Below are two Dan pills (heavy agents) taken before bed. Below is Si Bai Dan (light agent) for calming spirit and clearing lungs.
Assume slight sweating over a period: Use 3 liang Yu Feng Tang + 1 liang Ma Huang, divided into 4 doses. Add 5 slices ginger to one dose, take empty stomach, follow with congee. Mild sweating is ideal.
Assume mild laxation over ten days: Use 3 liang Yu Feng Tang + 1 liang Da Huang, divided into 4 doses. Decoct as above, take before bed. Obtaining stool is excellent.
Long-term medication must follow seasonal changes. After late winter/spring cold: Add Ban Xia 2 liang (total 4), Chai Hu 2 liang (total 4), Ren Shen 2 liang (total 4). This anticipates and drains Shaoyang Qi. Early summer: Add Shi Gao 2 liang (total 6), Huang Qin 2 liang (total 5), Zhi Mu 2 liang (total 4). This anticipates and drains Yangming Qi. Late summer: Add Fang Ji 2 liang (total 4), Bai Zhu 2 liang, Fu Ling 2 liang (total 5). This overcomes Spleen-Dampness. Early autumn after great heat: Add Hou Po 2 liang (total 4), Huo Xiang (Agastaches Herba) 2 liang, Gui Zhi 1 liang (total 2). This anticipates and drains Taiyin Qi. After Frost Descent/winter approach: Add Fu Zi 1 liang, Gui Zhi 1 liang (total 2), Dang Gui 2 liang (total 4). This overcomes Shaoyin Qi. Spring reduces Winter; seasons are similar. Although legislation follows seasonal additions/subtractions, one must assess deficiency/excess, heat/cold, local climate, and pathogen quantity during illness. This formula addresses Seven Emotions, Six Desires, and Four Qi, preventing Zang imbalance and maintaining Ying-Wei stability. For wind-type constipation, it prevents dryness. For chronic diarrhea, it regulates itself. Taking this upon early wind signs, along with Tian Ma Wan, forms a preventive strategy. It is also suitable for ongoing illness, regardless of gender or pediatric convulsions/spasms. It effectively treats seasonal wind-cold with seasonal modifications. It also treats Spleen/Kidney deficiency, weak sinews, speech difficulties, mental confusion, and internal wind-damp-fire. Internal weakness refers to wind-damp-fire; heaviness indicates wind-damp. Earth excess/internal weakness causes hemiplegia or obesity with hemiplegia, or fear-induced amnesia and excessive thinking. Thinking and forgetting stem from emotional insufficiency. Heart chaos breeds disease; heart calmness eliminates disease. This formula calms the mind, nourishes spirit, balances Yin-Yang, and stabilizes Ying-Wei.

Daily Qi corresponds to Yin/Mao/Chen hours. Thus morning is better than night. Patient should fast overnight. If drug does not induce vomiting, give hot pickle water. For wind-epilepsy vomiting, add Quan Xie (Scorpio) 0.5 qian (lightly fried). If parasites present, add Dog Oil 5-7 drops, Xiong Huang (Realgar) 1 qian. Severe cases add Yuan Hua (Genkwa Flos) 0.5 qian to immediately expel worms. For damp swelling/fullness, add Chi Xiao Dou (Vigna Adzuki) 1 qian. Thus, do not use routinely. Crucially distinguish deficiency/excess. Excess: Gua Di San; Deficiency: Zhi Zi Chi Tang. Fullness adds Hou Po. Do not apply uniformly. After vomiting, take fire-draining, Qi-promoting, spirit-calming agents. For wind-epilepsy unresponsive to treatment, refer to Hou Po Wan, adding Ren Shen, Chang Pu, Fu Shen (heart removed, each 1.5 liang) in spring/autumn. Mix and administer according to Hou Po Wan seasonal modification method. Hou Po Wan formula is in the Vomiting Discourse.
