ABSTRACT
Tokito is a Kampo formulation for treating chest and/or abdominal pain symptoms of individuals with deficiency pattern and cold pattern. Here, we report cases of chest symptoms except pain. Case 1 was an 81-year-old man who presented with chest tightness, and Case 2 was a 77-year-old man who presented with palpitation. Their symptoms improved remarkably and their physical strength got better after treatment with tokito. Tokito comprises ginseng and astragalus root, the same as the one used in hochuekkito, which is a well-known qi-tonifying formulation. It is suggested that tokito is effective as qi-tonifying formulation for a variety of chest symptoms in patients with deficiency pattern and cold pattern.
