Da Chaihu Decoction does not have ginseng, but it adds peony, citrus aurantium, rhubarb, and removes licorice and ginseng. So why does Da Chaihu Decoction make up like this? We will not talk about the principle of using Da Chaihu Decoction for this time. This disease, if Chaihu syndrome affects the stomach, it will affect the stomach, at least it will. If it is only hot but not solid, then it is Xiao Chaihu and gypsum. It is hot but not solid, and it is real. So if it is true, it is Da Chaihu Decoction. It is true that the disease has invaded the internal and is more solid than solid than solid, while Da Chaihu Decoction is more solid than solid.
We said that Xiao Chaihu Decoction has no disease, so it is at least not true. He is afraid that this disease will invade inside. If the inside is solid, you should not replenish it. If the supplement is done, you will close the door and catch the thief. Therefore, this ginseng and licorice nourishing product is in trouble. It mainly uses evil spirits to expel evil, so it is added with peony, citrus aurantium and rhubarb to help food and eliminate swelling. So these two prescriptions are different, so due to different drugs, the symptoms and main indications are also different.
This Da Chaihu Decoction is also a Chaihu syndrome. It also has chest and flanks, vomiting and indifference, not to mention annoyance. There are all these, but what is it more? The lower part of the heart is the stomach, which is urgent. The word "urgent" means what we usually talk about is a "stop" and "stop" means this. It’s unhappy and feels so overwhelming. This is the word “urgent”, that’s what it means. The part of his heart is light and anxious, and the knot is even stronger, hard and full of swelling. If this Chaihu syndrome has this condition, it means that the internal symptoms are half trapped in the inner part and become solid inside. Then you must remove the evil, so it puts peony, citrus aurantium, and rhubarb. The evil cannot be replenished, and it can be attacked, so ginseng and licorice nourishing products are removed. The others are similar. If this disease is half-sinked in the inner part and becomes a sign of internal solidity, the symptoms are: Citrus aurantium. Citrus aurantium is used to treat internal solidity, swelling, and even hardness. We use Da Chaihu Decoction.
So what is below? It is about the clinical flavor or formula of Da Chaihu Decoction, which is the same as Xiao Chaihu Decoction. Of course, you need to have the Da Chaihu syndrome, and it is fine to use Da Chaihu Decoction. However, if you have the syndrome of Da Chaihu Decoction, it involves other problems. You can't just use Da Chaihu Decoction. The first is Da Chaihu plus gypsum soup. This is a very connected one with Xiao Chaihu and Gypsum Soup. It is not only solid inside, but also hot inside. So the amount of this gypsum is the same as the amount of Xiao Chaihu plus gypsum. If the stool is difficult and the tongue coating is yellow, and the tongue coating turns yellow when it is hot, then you can only use Xiao Chaihu and gypsum soup. Especially if you have high fever, there are many diseases, and the exterior symptoms are relieved. If you have high fever, you will all be like Xiao Chaihu and gypsum. However, the tongue coating is yellow and the stool is dry. This Xiao Chaihu and gypsum soup is not enough. You must use Da Chaihu and gypsum. I have treated this clinically, and I will tell you one. I have been treating this person for more than fifty days. This is a man who came back from a foreign country. He had a flu at the beginning and had a high fever. He always had about 40 degrees. It has been more than fifty days. The hospital has no choice but to invite experts from each hospital to consult. Then when you see, he used everything, including antibiotics and infusions. According to Western medicine, he believes that all the tests have been tested and the fever does not subside. It may be cancer, which almost scared the patient to death. Later I looked for cancer, but I couldn’t find cancer cells. There was a small bag of this piece for slices. Later, there was nothing I could do. His attending doctor was familiar with me, so I came to me later. After saying this to me, I told him that it was probably influenza, and there were some diseases. He insisted that I go, so I went to see it.
This person is like what I just said, with a yellow tongue coating, vomiting, unwilling to eat, and a hard heart that refuses to press. I said I would use Da Chaihu Decoction and gypsum to take it, and I would take one dose of medicine. Later, he took three doses of medicine. Later, when I came back, he stopped burning, and he also took it next to him. Later, he stayed for a week and was discharged from the hospital. I still like this person, and he has no cancer. There are so many of this, I will just give you such a serious case.We have high fever in clinical practice, which is caused by external infection and have no dry stool. Like the Xiao Chaihu plus gypsum decoction we mentioned just now, we can use Xiao Chaihu plus gypsum to test it out. If you have internal solid and also have Bupleurum syndrome, you can use Bupleurum plus gypsum, which is also tried and tested. I have used this too much. There are a lot of this, if you don’t give it to him, he won’t go down.
Da Chaihu Jiamangjian Decoction, this is the combination of Da Chaihu Decoction and this Zhaiwei Chengqi Decoction. If you have hot flashes, constipation, and other symptoms of Bupleurum, you can add Glauber's salt. This is hot flashes and hard stool, so he should use Chengqi Decoction. Let’s say that this is the chance to use Chengqi Decoction for this dysentery. My own child has this poisonous dysentery. I use this prescription to add or subtract it, namely, Big Bupleurum plus Glauber’s salt, and I add gypsum because it has a severe high fever and has a dry mouth and tongue. This one works very well. So hot flashes, and then nonsense, just use this prescription. However, this is not as good as this big Bupleurum plus gypsum application.
Big Bupleurum plus orange peel soup, you can see it in "Jinkui Yaolue". It says that because I ate this fish and meat, I have such constipation, and it uses Big Yellow Orange peel soup. So the orange peel medicine works on the stomach. If we talk about this kind of food, sometimes you only use Da Chaihu Decoction, which can be cured if the Chaihu Decoction syndrome is present. If the Chaihu Decoction syndrome is present, it is not enough to use Chaihu Decoction syndrome. Then use Chaiwei Chengqi Decoction plus orange peel to diarrhea. If there is any symptoms of stool blockage or even hiccups, we can use Da Chaihu plus orange peel.
