[Comments] 1. Pinellia is pungent and warm in nature, enters the spleen and stomach meridians, has good phlegm-resolving ability, and is an important medicine for treating various phlegm diseases. It is warm and dry in nature, especially for those with cold and dampness; if it is hot phlegm, it should be used with heat-clearing and phlegm-resolving products. However, it has the disadvantage of damaging yin and consuming body fluid, so it is not suitable for those with dry phlegm. It is mainly used to eliminate lumps, which is actually the function of resolving phlegm and removing dampness; as for dispersing lumps, it is nothing more than the effect of pungent, dispersing, warming and unblocking. It is a good medicine that can harmonize the middle and reduce adverse reactions to stop vomiting. It can be used regardless of stomach cold, stomach heat, stomach deficiency, nausea and vomiting. It is suitable for combination and has excellent effects. In addition, those who have stomach disharmony and can’t sleep well, and those who have insufficient kidney yang and irregular bowel movements can all be used together, and they also have special effects.
2. Pinellia was considered by ancient people to be a taboo product for pregnancy, but it can stop vomiting when used for nausea, and there is no risk of abortion. It is also believed that it is slippery in nature. Although its body is slippery, its nature is warm and dry, and it is definitely not a moisturizing product, so people with yin deficiency and lack of body fluid should use it with caution.
3. The main function of Pinellia is to resolve phlegm and stop vomiting, so it is an important medicine for the spleen and stomach meridians. The spleen is the source of phlegm, and the stomach is the organ for receiving. If phlegm and dampness cling to the spleen, Pinellia can dry dampness and resolve phlegm; if the stomach qi is not harmonious, Pinellia can also harmonize the stomach and reduce adverse reactions.
4. Pinellia resolves phlegm, mainly for those who cannot resolve dampness in the spleen and gather it into phlegm; because it is warm and dry in nature, it can also be used for cold phlegm. If it is hot phlegm, it must be used in combination with lung-clearing medicine. As for symptoms such as yin deficiency, dry phlegm, lack of body fluid and thirst, it is not suitable for use.
5. Banxia stops vomiting, mainly for phlegm and qi obstruction, stomach disharmony; but because it has a good anti-vomiting effect, it is suitable for vomiting caused by phlegm and fluid, and can also be used for vomiting caused by stomach deficiency. For example, the Banxia Decoction in the Golden Chamber uses Banxia with ginseng, white honey, etc.; as for vomiting caused by stomach heat, it is advisable to use stomach-clearing drugs such as Ophiopogon japonicus and Rhizoma Anemarrhenae together to prevent excessive heat and damage to stomach yin.
6. There are records of Banxia causing abortion in the Bielu, but the Ganjiang Renshen Banxia Decoction in the Golden Chamber has long been used to treat vomiting during pregnancy, and it does not affect the fetus. From this example, we are inspired to read the ancient herbal literature. We must hold the dialectical materialist viewpoint of one divides into two, so that we can take its essence and remove its dross.
7. Banxia is toxic when used raw, and ginger and alum can control its toxicity, so when using processed Banxia, ​​ginger and alum are mostly used. In addition, in the past, in Shanghai, there were many methods of making Pinellia ternata, such as bamboo juice Pinellia ternata, Song Pinellia ternata, and Xian Pinellia ternata, in addition to ginger-processed Pinellia ternata. Now, these methods have been simplified. Pharmacies mainly supply processed Pinellia ternata, and no longer process the above varieties.
