Abstract:
Reitakutsukito, a Kampo formulation which is described in the textbook Ranhitsu-Hizou, has been well known as a suitable formulation for sinusitis related signs and symptoms.
We reported previously three cases, i.e. chronic headache, bronchial asthma and bronchial amyloidosis with sinusitis, successfully treated with this formulation. Here we report on a clinical trial of reitakutsukito for 5 cases in which the chief complaints were pre-menstrual disorder, chronic headache, anorexia, finger dysesthe sia and chronic cough accompanied with sinusitis. We attempted to make clear the sho for this Kampo formulation by means of administering this formulation alone, or with concomitant use of supportive formulations.
