Li, male, 45 years old. A few days ago, due to fever and chills, body aches, he self-administered common cold remedies and Isatis Root. After taking the herbal decoction, the chills and fever subsided, but his spirit was still poor, with dizziness, lack of appetite, occasional desire to vomit, and no bowel movement for four days, though there was no abdominal discomfort. The tongue was pale red with a thin, white, and moist coating, and the pulse was wiry and slippery. He was prescribed Minor Bupleurum Decoction for three doses, after which his bowel movements normalized, vomiting ceased, and he sweated and recovered.
