Abstract

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo(BPPV) is the most common peripheral vestivular disorder that is featured with paroxysmal vertigo caused by position changes. For a long time, it has been believed that the rendition is caused by inorganic particles in the cupula of the posterior semicircular canal. In the book 'DongyiSuseBowon(東醫壽世保元)', vertigo has been mentioned So-Yang-Sang-Pung syndrome and fever-aversive syndrome for Yin deficiency of So-Yang-In. Hyeong-Bang-Do-Jeok-San(荊防導赤散) is used at So-Yang-Sang-Pung and Gyeol-Hyung syndrome of So-Yang-In. Three patients in the cases have been suffered from vertigo, nausea and hot flushes etc. These patients were classified as So-Yang-In by features in the face, bodyshape and personality patterns. All of them have been improved in vertigo and other symptoms with Hyeong-Bang-Do-Jeok-San for a few days. The result showed that So-Yang-In Hyeong-Bang-Do-Jeok-San was effective on vertigo and other symptoms of BPPV patients.
