Hú Zēngbīn 胡增彬 (zì Qiānbó 謙伯, fl. 1870s, late Qīng / Guāngxù era), late-Qīng Huīzhōu (Xīnān 新安, Anhui) literatus. Friend and collator of 鄒存淦 (Zōu Cúngàn, hào Lìshēng) who in 1877 brought to woodblock-print Zōu’s Wàizhì shòushì fāng 外治壽世方 (KR3ed118) 4-juǎn manuscript. His postface (dated Tiānzhōngjié / Duānwǔ Festival 1877) is the principal source for the work’s provenance and for the period’s polemical defense of wàizhì therapy against contemporary oral-decoction-only clinical practice.
Hú Zēngbīn is also recorded as the compiler of the Jīngyàn xuǎnmì 經驗選秘 (KR3ed146) — placing him as a Huīzhōu late-Qīng popular-pharmacology figure with at least two known works in the genre.
