ABSTRACT
We report four cases which were successfully treated with keishikyokeikabukuryobyakujutsuto. Case 1 was a 53-year-old female who presented with a 15-year history of fatigue, headache and shoulder stiffness. After 1 month's treatment with keishikyokeikabukuryobyakujutsuto, her complaints improved remarkably. Case 2 was a 29-year-old female who was suffering from allergic rhinitis. After 6 month's treatment with keishikyokeikabukuryobyakujutsuto, her symptoms completely resolved. Case 3 was a 37-year-old female who was diagnosed with Meniere's disease. Some formulas had been prescribed before, but provided no relief. After the start of treatment with keishikyokeikabukuryobyakujutsuto, however, the patient's symptoms resolved completely within 2 weeks. Case 4 was a 50-year-old female who presented with tension headache. After 2 week's treatment with keishikyokeikabukuryobyakujutsuto, her headache had almost completely resolved. Most of the cases presented with slight epigastric tenderness and superficial-like symptoms such as headache and shoulder stiffness. Many of them also showed symptoms suggestive of fluid imbalances in the body, such as dizziness, rhinorrhea and teeth marks on both sides of the tongue. Keishikyokeikabukuryobyakujutsuto is a useful formula for patients with superficial-like symptoms accompanied by disorders of the body fluid homeostasis.
