Abstract:
A new traditional preparation comprises flos Sophora japonica, folia Thuya orientalis, flos Elsholtzia cristata, and cortex Citrus sp.. This powder was used clinically on 84 subjects (men and women) aged from 16 to 60 years suffered by no more a 3 day acute hemorrhoid of 1, 2, and 3 grade in comparing with Daflon administrated in 32 other patients of the control group. Results had shown good efficacy of hemostasis comparable possibly with Daflon, but the effect is better in case of constipation.
