Abstract

Boiogito is mentioned in Synopsis of the Golden Chamber, in which it is written to add ephedra herb for patients with cough at the end of the chapter. We experienced 4 chronic cough cases of wind-wetness syndrome or edema caused by pathogenic Wind successfully treated with boiogitokamao. Subjective symptoms such as heaviness when moving, heavy sweating, and body chills, as well as objective findings such as pallor, and a weak pulse in the most distal region of the right wrist were common in these patients. Moreover, not only cough, but also accompanying symptoms such as obesity, dysmenorrhea, and eczema were improved. Observation of these four cases suggests that boiogitokamao can be effective for the treatment of the patients with chronic cough due to wind-wetness syndrome / edema caused by the pathogenic Wind.
