Abstract
Xiao-Chai-Hu-Tang (XCHT), a representative of previous edition of Formulas of Traditional Chinese Medicine and harmonizing formulas, has multiple pharmacological functions. However, a variety of side effects could be caused by misuse or abuse, ignoring the theory of diagnosis and treatment based on the combination of syndrome and disease differentiation. Therefore, we conducted a retrospective study to evaluate the efficacy of XCHT, depending upon the individual patient’s condition. Among 98 patients treated with XCHT, most of the patients of syndromes could be cured after about two course. The therapeutic effect rate of prescribed XCHT in our 98 cases of treatment is 91.84% (90/98). In addition, the high frequently syndromes are consistent with Shanhanlun.
With multiple years of experience, we believe that: patient feel pain and tenderness under the right costal arch is one of the symptoms of patients who fit for the treatment with XCHT.
