Famous experts discuss "Prescription of Essential Drugs": The Outline contains three items, such as stopping diarrhea, removing sleep and whitening on branches and leaves in Nanzhuang, and two items, such as strengthening tendons and strengthening strength, which are the same as branches and leaves, and are almost intertextual, unless they are the indications of other drugs, or the seeds, branches and leaves are absolutely different. I have tried pumpkin seeds to treat chronic dysentery and diarrhea, and it is very effective to treat drowsiness after meals. It can be seen that stopping bleeding and sleeping is not just a matter of branches and leaves. I have also tried to treat dysentery and blood with purple for a long time, and it is also effective, which is beyond the herbal medicine. "There was once a party, south of the candle for jun, Polygonum multiflorum Thunb. as minister, half of the grain bud, half of the coke as assistant. Its drugs are added according to symptoms, such as Coptidis Rhizoma, Radix Aucklandiae and Fructus Chebulae for chronic diarrhea, Rhizoma Dioscoreae and Lotus Root for chronic diarrhea, Intelligence and Polygalae for sleep, and Coptidis Rhizoma, Flos Sophorae Immaturus, Radix Angelicae Sinensis and Sanguisorba for dysentery. It really sounds like a reaction. "
