Abstract:
Yuebi Decoction is a classic prescription derived from Synopsis of the Golden Chamber. It has significant clinical efficacy and wide application. Scholars of different dynasties have different opinions on its prescription name and put forward different understandings on the dosage of Ephedrae Herba and Gypsum Fibrosum in the prescription. There is a dispute between relieving exterior prescription and draining dampness prescription in the main syndrome. In this article, it is found that there is no contradiction between relieving exterior and draining dampnes, but they promote each other and play the role of "lifting the pot to uncover the cover". In terms of clinical application, this article introduces the cases of this prescription and its addition and subtraction used in the treatment of diseases of respiratory system, urinary system and other systems in recent years. It is found that clinical use of this prescription is mainly for "sweating and promoting diuresis", which reflects the thought of "treating different diseases with the same treatment" in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
