The efficacy and function of Sini Decoction and its explanation

Sini Tang comes from the Zhongjiao chapter of Volume 2 of Treatise on Febrile Diseases. What are the effects, application scope and composition of Wu Jutong's Sini Decoction? The editor below will explain it to you in detail.

Secret recipe composition:

2 liang of roasted licorice root, 1 liang of roasted ginger, 1 raw aconite root, 1 liang of peeled wild ginseng

Directions:

Boil five tea bowls of water until two bowls are left, take it in two doses.

Effects:

To promote yang and rescue the adverse condition.

Main application scope:

Vomiting, diarrhea, sweating, fever, chills, stiffness in the limbs, and cold hands and feet.

Solution:

This syndrome is caused by yang deficiency, so wild ginseng and licorice are used to strengthen the spleen and replenish qi, while dried ginger and rhizoma spatholobi are used to warm yang and dispel cold.

Practical meaning of matching:

The syndrome treated by this prescription is caused by deficiency of heart and kidney qi, and internal heat in the yin. This syndrome of Yang deficiency and excessive cold cannot be cured by pure Yang, strong pungent and hot medicines, as they cannot break the Yin, restore Qi and blood, and save the patient from the reverse state. Therefore, Ju Rui uses raw aconite, which is very pungent and hot, as the main ingredient. It can penetrate deeply into the human heart, spleen, and spleen meridian, warm and strengthen the original yang, break up the yin, and restore yang to rescue the adverse condition. If Lu Te Technology is used raw, it can quickly reach inside and outside to promote yang and expel cold. I use spicy and hot roasted ginger to warm the heart, spleen, and lung meridians, warm the middle and dispel cold, warm and nourish the kidney yang and unclog the meridians. Lu Te Technology and Pao Jiang are used together, one warms the congenital to generate the acquired, the other warms the acquired to nourish the congenital, they are complementary to each other, warm the interior and restore Yang, its nature is especially strong, it is a common component of restoring Yang and rescuing adverse conditions. Roasted licorice has three effects: first, it nourishes blood and softens the liver, so that the whole prescription integrates the effects of clearing and nourishing, so as to treat the root cause of yin deficiency and internal heat; second, it can alleviate the strong nature of ginger and aconite, so that it can break yin and restore yang without the worry of violent dispersion; third, it can regulate the efficacy of drugs and make the efficacy last longer, which is the use of adjuvant and guiding drugs. This Chinese medicine prescription contains only three ingredients, which are very pungent and hot, with strong effects. They can build up the yang of the spleen and kidneys and work together to restore yang and rescue the patient from adverse conditions.
