麻黄二两（去除节段） 连轺二两（连轺，即连翘的根。陶弘景说：方药中不使用，无人认识它。苏恭也将其退入草类之下） 赤小豆二升 生梓白皮一升（切，用布包好） 杏仁四十个（去皮尖） 大枣十二枚（擘开） 生姜三两（切） 甘草二两（炙）
以上八味药，用雨水一斗，先煮麻黄至沸腾两次，去掉水面上的浮沫，加入其余药物，煮取三升药液，分三次温服，半天内服完。
麻黄连轺赤小豆汤，是表里分解的方法。无论是太阳经的热邪，还是阳明经的热邪，若内合太阴脾经的湿邪，就会形成瘀热而发黄。
麻黄六两（去除节段） 桂枝二两（去除外皮） 甘草二两（蜜炙） 杏仁四十个（去皮尖） 生姜三两（切片） 上七味药，用水九升，先煮麻黄减少二升，去掉水面上的浮沫，加入其余药物，煮取三升药液，去掉药渣，温服一升。
麻黄、桂枝、越婢汤相互反复组合成方，取名于“龙”，本是辛热的药剂，再加上石膏，就变成了辛凉的药剂，正如龙具有阳体的性质，使用石头（石膏）来通达下部。

小青龙汤，治疗太阳经表里俱寒的病证，其方义与大青龙汤治疗里热截然不同。因为水寒之气上逆，就会涉及少阴肾经，导致肾虚……芍药……纲药……用来收敛。
桂枝一两十六铢（去除外皮） 麻黄一两（去除节段） 芍药一两 杏仁二十四粒（去皮尖） 甘草一两（炙） 上七味药，用水五升，先煮麻黄一二沸，去掉水面上的浮沫，加入其余药物，煮取一升八合药液，去掉药渣，温服六合。
桂枝与麻黄相互反复组合，注解者都认为是两解法，这是以浅陋的见解揣测张仲圣的深意，实在令人感慨。何不观察其法则……阴阳……成为小剂。
Ephedrae Herba (Mahuang, 麻黄) two liang (remove nodes), Lianqiao Radix (Lianyao, 连轺) two liang (Lianyao is the root of Forsythiae Fructus. Tao Hongjing said: It is not used in prescriptions, and no one recognizes it. Su Gong also demoted it to the category of herbs.), Red Bean (Chixiaodou, 赤小豆) two sheng, Shengzi Baipi (Raw Catalpa Bark, 生梓白皮) one sheng (cut, wrapped in cloth), Apricot Seed (Xingren, 杏仁) forty pieces (remove skin and tips), Jujube (Dazao, 大枣) twelve pieces (split open), Fresh Ginger (Shengjiang, 生姜) three liang (sliced), Licorice Root (Gancao, 甘草) two liang (honey-fried).
The above eight ingredients are decocted with one dou of rainwater (Laoshui, 潦水). First, boil Ephedrae Herba until it boils twice, remove the foam on the surface, add all other herbs, and decoct to obtain three sheng of liquid. Divide into three warm doses, and finish taking them within half a day.
Mahuang Lianqiao Chixiaodou Decoction (Cinnamon Twig and Ephedra Combined with Forsythia Root and Red Bean Decoction) is a method for resolving both exterior and interior conditions. Whether the heat originates from the Taiyang channel or the Yangming channel, if it combines internally with the dampness of the Taiyin spleen, it forms stagnant heat leading to jaundice.
Ephedrae Herba (Mahuang, 麻黄) six liang (remove nodes), Cinnamon Twig (Guizhi, 桂枝) two liang (remove bark), Licorice Root (Gancao, 甘草) two liang (honey-fried), Apricot Seed (Xingren, 杏仁) forty pieces (remove skin and tips), Fresh Ginger (Shengjiang, 生姜) three liang (sliced). The above seven ingredients are decocted with nine sheng of water. First, boil Ephedrae Herba until the volume reduces by two sheng, remove the foam on the surface, add all other herbs, and decoct to obtain three sheng of liquid. Remove the dregs, and take one sheng warm.
The combination of Mahuang, Guizhi, and Yu Pi Tang repeatedly forms a prescription named after "Dragon." Originally a pungent-hot agent, adding Gypsum Fibrosum (Shigao, 石膏) transforms it into a pungent-cool agent, just as Dragon possesses a yang body nature, using stone (Gypsum) to reach downwards.
Ephedrae Herba (Mahuang, 麻黄) three liang (remove nodes), Cinnamon Twig (Guizhi, 桂枝) two liang (remove bark), Paeonia Root (Shaoyao, 芍药) three liang, Dried Ginger (Ganjiang, 干姜) three liang, Asarum (Xixin, 细辛) three liang, Schisandra Fruit (Wuweizi, 五味子) half sheng, Licorice Root (Gancao, 甘草) three liang (honey-fried). The above eight ingredients are decocted with one dou of water. First, boil Ephedrae Herba until the volume reduces by two sheng, remove the foam on the surface, add all other herbs, and decoct to obtain three sheng of liquid. Remove the dregs, and take one sheng warm.
Xiao Qinglong Decoction (Minor Green Dragon Decoction) treats cold affecting both the exterior and interior of the Taiyang channel. Its formula principle is completely different from Da Qinglong Decoction's treatment of interior heat. Because cold-water rebelliously ascends, it involves the Shaoyin kidney channel, leading to kidney deficiency... Paeonia Root... guiding herbs... used to astringe.
Cinnamon Twig (Guizhi, 桂枝) one liang sixteen zhu (remove bark), Ephedrae Herba (Mahuang, 麻黄) one liang (remove nodes), Paeonia Root (Shaoyao, 芍药) one liang, Apricot Seed (Xingren, 杏仁) twenty-four grains (remove skin and tips), Licorice Root (Gancao, 甘草) one liang (honey-fried). The above seven ingredients are decocted with five sheng of water. First, boil Ephedrae Herba for one or two boils, remove the foam on the surface, add all other herbs, and decoct to obtain one sheng eight he of liquid. Remove the dregs, and take six he warm.
The mutual repetition of Guizhi and Mahuang; commentators interpret this as a dual-resolution method. This is measuring Zhang Zhongjing's profound intent with shallow understanding, which is truly lamentable. Why not observe its method... Yin and Yang... becoming small.
