Abstract

Si Jun Zi Tang (Four Gentleman Decoction) and Li Zhong Wan (Rectify the Center Pill) are basic formulas for tonifying Qi and Warming the Middle (Tonifying Spleen Yang), respectively. The difference between these two formulas is the presence of Fu Ling (Poria cocos) in the former and Gan Jiang (dry ginger) in the latter. Most of the remaining formulas in these two groups are derived from these two “sisters”.Based on these two formulas, the addition of substances that Transform Phlegm-Humidity, Mobilize Qi and Favor Digestion, Tonify Spleen Yang, Nourish Blood, etc. give rise to multiple formulas the treat the disturbances due to Deficiencies in Qi and/or Spleen and Lung Yang.
