Gou Tengclears heat and levels the liver, extinguishes wind and stabilizesfright. When these two medicinals are combinedtogether, they have a strong effect for clearing heat and coolingthe liver, extinguishing wind and stopping tetany. Theyare the ruling medicinals in this formula. Sang Ye and Ju Huaassist the main medicinals in clearing heat and extinguishingwind. When yang becomes hyperactive, it engenders fire,and, when fire becomes effulgent, it engenders wind. Whenwind and fire combine, they damage and consume yin fluids.Therefore, Bai Shao, Sheng Di, and Gan Cao enrich andnourish yin fluids. When yang heat becomes hyperactive andexuberant, it easily burns the fluids and engenders phlegm.Hence Zhu Ru and Zhe Bei Mu clear heat and transformphlegm.
