Abstract:
We experienced 2 cases of allergic rhinitis successfully treated with Shimbuto. Shoseiryuto, Goreisan and Ryokankyomishingeninto did not have any favorable effect on these cases. They had similar subjective symptoms, that is, a mass of nasal mucus, became cold easily and developed taste for citrus fruits. There were common objective symptoms, such as, fullness of the upper abdomen, coldness of the epigastrium, epigastric throbbing pulsation and a fluid sound in the stomach upon palpation. These findings suggest that Shimbu-to might be practicable for the patients who did not received the blessing of the standard Kampo therapy.
