Abstract

The following case study illustrates the administration of Bojanggunbi-tang in the treatment of a man diagnosed as having Crohu's disease. The usual gastrointestinal symptoms of Crohu's disease are diarrhea, abdominal pain and weight loss, in addition to anemia and rectal bleeding. A l6-year-old man diagnosed with Crohn's disease, who was treated at our clinic, had symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, weight loss, anemia and rectal bleeding. He was treated with Bojanggunbi-tang. For the two months the symptoms were considerably reduced. The result supports the clinical efficacy of Bojanggunbi-tang for the treatment of the symptoms of suspected Crohn's disease.
