- Abstract: It is written about daiobotampito in ‘Jin Gui Yao Lue' that the patients who should be treated with the formula urinated smoothly. On the other hand, Kampo doctors today tend to use daiobotampito for difficulty of urination. We investigated the feature of daiobotampito in old medical textbooks, especially about “urination,” “gonorrhea,” and “intestinal abscess.” We searched old medical textbooks for daiobotampito, which were written or published before or during the Song Dynasty. In the textbooks other than ‘Jin Gui Yao Lue,' it is written that the patients urinated frequently. In the textbooks other than ‘Jin Gui Yao Lue' and ‘Ishimpo,' it is written that the patients sometimes urinated difficultly. In the old medical textbooks before or during the Song Dynasty, urination of the patients who should be treated with daiobotampito was smooth but sometimes difficult.
