Abstract
A study was carried out on the efficacy of a combination of Keishi-to and Maobushisaishin-to extract, which is a variation of Keikyososooshinbu-to. Remarkable improvement was seen when a combination of these extracte was administered to 15 cases (headaches, colds, rhinitis, feeling chilled, diarrhea, etc.) which exhibited a disk-shaped area of resistence in the epigastrium, a typical indication for the use of Keikyososooshinbu-to, as well as a tendency to feel chilled or coldness in the hands or feet. The progress of two of these cases (headache, diarrhea) are reported. The results suggested that the symptoms indicating the use of the combination of the two formulas were similar to those associated with Keikyososooshinbushi-to, and that if the differences between the two formulas is taken into consideration, the combination of Kelshi-to and Maobushisaishin-to extracts can be used as a variation of Keikvososoonshinbushi-to.
