Abstract:
Literature on Bukuryo-shigyaku-to describes it as “those who perspire, have diarrhea, do not recover from disease and are afflicted by restlessness.” In this study we examined 4 cases where the administration of Bukuryo-shigyaku-to had an effect, where complaints which accompanied autonomic disorder and psychoneurosis brought about by automobile accidents were diagnosed as restlessness. With the experience of these cases and consideration of the literature, we consider the following to be appropriate states of illness for the administration of Bukuryo-shigyaku-to in psychoneural sicknesses.
1) states of illness where conditions of psychological introversion caused by such things as fear, heart palpitations, and depression exist, and it is necessary to lift spirits.
2) states of illness where such Ki-depressions as whole body weariness and lack of appetite exist.3) states of illness where such stasis of body fluids as dull headache and dizziness exist.
4) where epigastric region tenderness and abdominal palpitations exist.
