Abstract:
ABSTRAC: The therapeutic course of an aciclovir-induced acute renal dysfunctional patients was summarized. This had been relieved through a 15-day treatment with Western medicine but with a two-week protracted low fever that was cured by the authors using Chinese medicinal herbs for supplementing qi to support essence, nourishing yin to depress fire, clearing heat, and detoxicating. For the sake of providing a reference to clinical medication, the materials used for the disease were recorded and analyzed to explore the clinical characteristics of Chinese medicine treatment and prevention of anaphylaxis responses, such as the protracted low fever after acute renal dysfunction induced by overinfused aciclovir.
