説明
The subjective symptoms of varicose veins of the lower extremity often include malaise, numbness, coldness, pain, and pruritus of the lower extremity, and relieving these complaints is important in managing the quality of life of patients. We have examined the clinical efficacy of keishibukuryogan, a Kampo prescription for improving oketsu (impaired microcirculation, congestion), on non-specific complaints associated with varicose veins of the lower extremity. Keishibukuryogan was administered to 30 patients with non-specific complaints associated with varicose veins of the lower extremity for 12 weeks, resulting in improvements in the scores of subjective symptoms, severity of varicose veins, and oketsu as well as an increase in skin perfusion pressure. And especially the effect was remarkable in female. In addition, oketsu was shown to be involved in the subjective symptoms associated with varicose veins of the lower extremity, demonstrating efficacy of keishibukuryogan. No adverse drug reaction or abnormal laboratory result was observed in patients receiving keishibukuryogan, and the rate of general improvement and usefulness was 73.3%. It was suggested that keishibukuryogan was useful to improve the symptoms of patients with non-specific complaints associated with varicose veins of the lower extremity especially in female patients.
