Abstract:
Fifty years has passed since Sarasin described a case of osteomalacia.
We studied the efficacy of Hochu-ekki-to compared with a regimen of activated vitamin D and lactate calcium. The efficacy was confirmed by administration of the drug to 6 patients with bone disorder after gastrectomy.
MD/MS (microdensitometry/multiple scanning) examinations demonstrated the efficacy of the drug with improvement of three indices of bone mineral content.
