Li Jingdong originally wrote "Chen Liuge" in "Buzhu Capsule Finger Palm": "Fructus Aurantii, Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae, Rhizoma Pinelliae, Herba Ephedrae, Stellera chamaejasme, and Evodia rutaecarpa, the six medicines will have long-term Fang Chen until they are put into the prescription."
Extended data:
Liu Chen, a traditional Chinese medicine, refers to six kinds of traditional Chinese medicines with good effects, namely Pericarpium Citri Tangerinae, Rhizoma Pinelliae, Fructus Aurantii, Herba Ephedrae, Stellera chamaejasme and Evodia rutaecarpa. Traditional Chinese medicine has the saying of "six elders". It is pointed out that six kinds of traditional Chinese medicines need to be stored in Chen Fang through certain methods, so that the drugs can be changed from new drugs to old drugs and their taste and efficacy can be changed, thus further meeting the needs of clinical treatment.
This theory is gradually formed in medical practice. First, Tao Hongjing suggested that Chenpi and Pinellia ternata should be used by Chen for a long time, and then Tang Bencao added four flavors. Materia Medica of Analogy and Syndrome summarized it and formally put forward the theory of "Six Qi".
Different from Liu Chen's songs, there are differences between Fructus Aurantii and Fructus Aurantii Immaturus. In fact, Fructus Aurantii Immaturus and Fructus Aurantii Immaturus are the same thing, but the former is an immature fruit and the latter is a mature fruit. "Six Chen" has existed since ancient times, and many doctors only know that the above six traditional Chinese medicines should be used for a long time.
