Abstract:
We encountered 2 cases of vomiting that were successfully treated with daisaikoto. In case1, the patient was a 16-year-old girl. She was vomiting in the hospital with pneumonia. Referring to the vomiting and kyokyo-kuman (Subchondrial resistance and discomfort), vomiting gradually disappeared after administration of daisaikoto. In case 2, the patient was a 73-year-old woman. After aspiration pneumonia, she developed nausea and vomiting and experienced constipation and kyokyo-kuman. The nausea and vomiting gradually disappeared after the administration of daisaikoto. These findings suggested that daisaikoto, in combination with a large amount of Zingiberis Rhizoma on classic text, suppresses nausea.
