ABSTRACT
The descriptions about Dachaihu Decoction (DD) were retrieved from ancient and modern literatures. A feeling of being oppressed in stomach or abdomen was raised to be a main symptom of Dachaihu Decoction syndrome (DDS). The pathogenesis of DDS includes failure of shaoyang to flow upward, abnormality of gallbladder and stomach, and inner stagnation of heat. The main clinical feature of abdominal compartment syndrome is severe abdominal distension, which is similar to that of DDS. Significant effects could be achieved by using DD. The clinical use of classical prescriptions should focus on main symptoms and grasp the pathogenesis.
