Red Halloysite and Limonite Decoction

傷寒論

-- Cold damage: after taking a decoction, diarrhea does not stop, with epigastric stuffiness and hardness. After taking Xiexin Tang, the patient was again purged with other medicinals, and the diarrhea did not stop. The physician gave Lizhong Tang, and the diarrhea became worse. Lizhong Tang regulates the middle burner; this diarrhea is in the lower burner, and Chishizhi Yuyuliang Tang governs it. If diarrhea still does not stop, one should promote urination. (Shang Han Lun (Treatise on Cold Damage))
