发寒热头痛，即是寒邪犯心。寒气犯心，水火相战，故初病时，先发寒热，水火相犯，血
变于中，所以多下赤痢，如紫草水，如苋菜水，无色泽者，寒邪犯心之重也。先发寒热，
而所下之痢止白色者，寒邪犯心之未动也。先下白痢，而后有赤痢之变者，寒邪犯心，其
势渐加也。先下赤痢，而后变成白痢者，寒邪犯心，其势渐减也。赤白相等者，水火相
犯，其气相等，寒湿之气相搏也。忽有赤多而白少，忽有赤少而白多，此寒邪之势有多
少，毒痢之病有重轻，以白多为轻，赤多为重。治之之法，先夺其寒，则其所下之药一
也。以太岁分之，则丙子、丙午、甲子、甲午、庚子、庚午年，丙寅、丙申年，甲寅、甲
申年，庚寅、庚申并辰戌之年，运遇丙甲及庚运所临，其害尤甚。及丑未之年，宜有此
候，又兼无问太岁，盖天地变化，其候多端，难可穷尽。今此但世人亦不必撞定太岁，但
看一年中春夏之内，多有寒肃之化，阳光少见，忽寒热二气更相交争，忽于夏月多寒湿
之化，寒邪犯心所受之痢，先发寒热，忽头痛，忽先转数行，后有赤痢，忽赤白相杂，忽

出现恶寒发热、头痛的症状，即是寒邪侵犯心脏。寒气侵犯心脏，导致水火二气相互交战，所以在疾病初期，先出现恶寒发热的症状。水火之气相互冲犯，血液在体内发生变质，因此多排出红色痢疾，颜色像紫草水或苋菜水一样；如果痢疾没有血色，说明是寒邪严重侵犯心脏。如果先出现恶寒发热，而排出的痢疾只有白色，说明寒邪侵犯心脏但尚未扰动血分。如果先排出白色痢疾，后来转变为红色痢疾，说明寒邪侵犯心脏，病势逐渐加重。如果先排出红色痢疾，后来转变为白色痢疾，说明寒邪侵犯心脏，病势逐渐减轻。如果红白痢疾比例相等，说明水火之气相犯，两者力量相当，寒湿之气相互搏结。有时赤多白少，有时赤少白多，这取决于寒邪势力的强弱以及毒痢病的轻重程度，以白多者为轻症，赤多者为重症。治疗的方法，首先要消除寒邪，那么所用的药物就一种。根据天干地支纪年法来划分，丙子、丙午、甲子、甲午、庚子、庚午年，丙寅、丙申年，甲寅、甲申年，庚寅、庚申年以及辰戌之年，遇到丙、甲及庚运所主之时，危害尤其严重。到了丑未之年，也应当出现这种证候。此外，不论太岁如何，因为天地变化，其征候多种多样，难以穷尽。现在世人也不必死板地拘泥于太岁年份，只需看一年中春夏季节内，多有寒冷肃杀的气候变化，阳光少见，忽而寒热二气更替交争，忽而在夏季出现多寒湿的气候变化。对于寒邪侵犯心脏所致的痢疾，先出现恶寒发热，忽而头痛，忽而先腹泻数次，随后出现红色痢疾，忽而赤白相间，忽而只下痢疾，都适宜服用通神散，服药后若出现壮热，随即退去。如果服用两三剂后，壮热仍未退去，就不再服用此方，另有方论在下面。
麻黄（去除根和节）七钱半，官桂（去除粗皮）七钱半，大川芎二两，白术二两，藁本半两，独活半两，桔梗半两，防风半两，芍药半两，白芷半两，牡丹皮（去心）二钱半，甘草二钱半，细辛三钱三分余，牵牛一钱七分。以上药材研成细末，每次服用二钱，不拘时候，用熟汤调服，连同药渣一起趁热喝下。如果服用两三剂后，寒热症状仍未退去，不要再请医生开此方，另有方论在下面。
如果服用此药后，寒热已退，红色痢疾已减少，便配制第二方、第三方的药物服用，以求取效。如果寒热已退，红色痢疾未减少，再服用两三剂，但不要多吃，一天只喝两剂。之后红色痢疾减少，忽然变成白色痢疾，接着配制第二方服用，等到排便次数减少后，再配制第三方服用，以求平安。但在六甲之年、六庚之岁，春夏季节内，时气多寒，人患痢疾，此药“通神”有效。如果是六甲之年、丑未之岁，湿气偏多，人患痢疾，先出现恶寒发热，就在方剂中加入草豆蔻一两，一同配制服用。也不论太岁，只要一年间，春夏季节内多寒，人患痢疾，先出现恶寒发热，都适宜使用此方。
治疗毒痢初起时，先出现恶寒发热，服用前方后寒热已退，红色痢疾已减少，适宜进服此“还真散”。如果服用前方药后，寒热未退，红色痢疾未减少，更不宜进服此药。只是天地变化，其征候无常，痢疾的证候多种多样，这里不得不详尽细致地说明。
诃子五枚，用面粉包裹在火中煨熟，不要生，也不要焦，去掉面粉不用，趁热咬破诃子，取出核不用，只用皮，焙干。以上药材捣碎过筛为细末，每次服用二钱匕，用米汤一盏半，同药煎取一盏，空腹连药渣一起吃，如果能吐出一两口涎沫更佳。这样服用经过数剂，大便逐渐安稳，排便次数减少，再配制第三方药物服用，以巩固大肠功能。如果服用前方药后，壮热未退，血痢未减，不可进服此药。
治疗疫毒痢，服用前面两个方药后，病势已减，所下的痢疾只剩少量，或者排出清稀粪便，或者像鸭粪，或者像茶汤，或者像烛油，或者只剩余少量红色，适宜服用此方，以巩固大肠，恢复真气，即“舶上硫黄丸”。
舶上硫黄二两，去除砂石，研细为末；薏苡仁二两，炒制，杵为末。以上两味药混合均匀，滴入熟水调和制成丸药，如梧桐子大小。每次服用五十丸，空腹时用米汤送下。

If chills, fever, and headache occur, it indicates that cold pathogenic factors are invading the Heart. When cold qi invades the Heart, Water and Fire elements battle each other; thus, at the onset of the disease, chills and fever appear first. The conflict between Water and Fire causes blood to alter within the middle jiao, resulting in dysentery with red discharge resembling water infused with *Arnebiae Radix et Rhizoma* (Zicao) or *Amaranthi Tricoloris Herba* (Xiancai). If the discharge lacks color, it signifies severe invasion of the Heart by cold pathogenic factors. If chills and fever appear first, but the discharged dysentery is purely white, it indicates that the cold pathogenic factor has invaded the Heart but has not yet disturbed the blood. If white dysentery appears first and later transforms into red dysentery, it means the invasion of the Heart by cold pathogenic factors is gradually intensifying. If red dysentery appears first and later transforms into white dysentery, it means the invasion of the Heart by cold pathogenic factors is gradually subsiding. If red and white discharges are equal, it indicates that Water and Fire are conflicting with equal strength, and cold-damp qi is battling. Sometimes there is more red and less white, sometimes less red and more white; this depends on the magnitude of the cold pathogenic force and the severity of the toxic dysentery. White predominance indicates a mild condition, while red predominance indicates a severe condition. The treatment method is to first eliminate the cold; thus, the prescribed medicine remains the same. According to the sexagenary cycle, in Bingzi, Bingwu, Jiazi, Jiawu, Gengzi, Gengwu years, Bingyin, Bingshen years, Jiayin, Jiashen years, Gengyin, Gengshen years, and Chenxu years, when the movement encounters Bing, Jia, and Geng influences, the harm is particularly severe. In Chouwei years, this syndrome should also appear. Furthermore, regardless of the Tai Sui (Grand Duke Jupiter), because heaven and earth undergo changes, the manifestations are diverse and cannot be fully exhausted. Today, people need not rigidly adhere to the Tai Sui year; one only needs to observe if, during spring and summer of a given year, there is much cold and austere transformation with little sunlight, and if cold and heat energies alternatively contend, or if there is much cold-damp transformation in summer. For dysentery caused by cold pathogenic factors invading the Heart, presenting initially with chills and fever, followed by sudden headache, or initial frequent bowel movements followed by red dysentery, or mixed red and white discharge, or pure dysentery, all are suitable for treating with Tongshen San (Miraculous Spirit Powder). After ingestion, if intense heat occurs, it will subsequently subside. If after two or three doses the intense heat does not subside, do not continue this prescription; see the separate formula discussion below.
*Ephedrae Herba* (Mahuang, 麻黄) (remove roots and nodes) 7.5 qian, *Cinnamomi Ramulus* (Guizhi, 官桂) (remove rough bark) 7.5 qian, *Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma* (Chuanxiong, 川芎) 2 liang, *Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma* (Baizhu, 白术) 2 liang, *Ligustici Wallichii Rhizoma* (Gaoben, 本) 0.5 liang, *Angelicae Pubescentis Radix* (Duhuo, 独活) 0.5 liang, *Platycodonis Radix* (Jiegeng, 桔梗) 0.5 liang, *Saposhnikoviae Radix* (Fangfeng, 防风) 0.5 liang, *Paeoniae Radix Alba* (Shaoyao, 芍药) 0.5 liang, *Angelicae Dahuricae Radix* (Baizhi, 白芷) 0.5 liang, *Moutan Cortex* (Mudanpi, 牡丹皮) (remove heart) 2.5 qian, *Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma* (Gancao, 甘草) 2.5 qian, *Asari Radix et Rhizoma* (Xixin, 细辛) 3.3 qian plus, *Semen Kochiae* (Qianniu, 牵牛) 1.7 qian. Grind the above into fine powder. Take 2 qian per dose, at any time, mixed with boiled water, and drink warm including the dregs. If after two or three doses the chills and fever do not subside, do not request this prescription again; see the separate formula discussion below.
If after taking this medicine the chills and fever have subsided and the red dysentery has decreased, prepare and take the second and third formulas to achieve efficacy. If the chills and fever have subsided but the red dysentery has not decreased, take two or three more doses, but do not consume too much; limit to two doses per day. Later, when the red dysentery decreases and suddenly turns into white dysentery, sequentially prepare and take the second formula. When the frequency of defecation decreases, then prepare and take the third formula to ensure safety. However, in Liujia years and Liugeng years, during spring and summer, the seasonal qi is often cold. When people suffer from dysentery, this "Tongshen" (Miraculous Spirit) medicine is effective. If it is a Liujia year or Chouwei year, where dampness predominates, and people suffer from dysentery starting with chills and fever, add 1 liang of *Cardamomi Fructus Rotundus* (Roudoukou, 草豆蔻) to the formula and prepare together. Regardless of the Tai Sui, as long as during the year, especially in spring and summer, the climate is cold, and people suffer from dysentery starting with chills and fever, this formula is suitable.
When treating toxic dysentery at the onset, presenting initially with chills and fever, and after taking the previous formula the chills and fever have subsided and the red dysentery has decreased, it is appropriate to advance to Zhenhai San (Restore True Powder). If after taking the previous formula the chills and fever have not subsided and the red dysentery has not decreased, do not administer this medicine. Heaven and earth change, and symptoms are unpredictable; dysentery syndromes are manifold, so detailed explanation is necessary here.
*Terminalia chebula* (Hezi, 诃子) 5 fruits, wrapped in flour and roasted in fire until cooked, not raw, not burnt. Remove flour. Bite open while hot, remove seeds, use only the peel, and dry by baking. Grind and sieve into fine powder. Take 2 qian-bi (spoonfuls) per dose. Mix with 1.5 zhan of rice soup, decoct together to obtain 1 zhan. Consume warm with dregs on an empty stomach. Vomiting one or two mouthfuls of saliva is even better. After consuming several doses in this manner, the large intestine will gradually stabilize, and defecation frequency will decrease. Then prepare and take the third formula to consolidate the large intestine. If after taking the previous formula the intense heat has not subsided and bloody dysentery has not decreased, do not administer this medicine.
To treat epidemic toxic dysentery: after taking the previous two formulas, if the disease trend has subsided, and the discharged dysentery is minimal, or resembles clear feces, duck feces, tea soup, candle oil, or leaves only a small amount of red residue, it is appropriate to take this formula to consolidate the large intestine and restore true qi: Bo Shang Liu Huang Wan (Shipborne Sulfur Pill).

Grind into fine powder. Take 2 qian per dose, at any time, mixed with gruel drink.
