Urticaria is a common dermatopathy, coming under “eun-jin(隱疹)” in Korean herbal medicine. Headache and vertigo is a very common diseases in life. There are so many causes which induce uticaria, headache and vertigo. We experienced 31-year old woman case suffering from chronic urticaria, headache, vertigo with digestive disorder, nausea. We diagnosed those symptoms as dameum(痰飮). So we administered Jeongjeongamiyijintang-gamibang(正傳加味二陳湯加味方) to the urticaria, and Banhabaekchulcheonma-tang (半夏白朮天麻湯) to the headache, vertigo. They are both famous herbal medicines for treating dameum-related symptoms, because both of them contains Yijin-tang(二陳湯) which is the main Herbal medicine for dameum(痰飮).
