4 herbs·from Shanghan Lun (Treatise on Cold Damage)
In the Shanghan Lun (《傷寒論》) tradition, this formula is described for a state after vomiting and diarrhea have ceased: sweating with reversal cold of the limbs, persistent cramping of the four limbs, and a faint pulse on the verge of expiring. A historical indication, not a modern diagnostic or treatment recommendation.
