Abstract

Objectives: This study aimed to explore and describe how two patients diagnosed with type II diabetes mellitus were successfully cured solely through the use of herbal medicine. Methods: The patients were administered the herbal medicine to reduce symptoms of stress-induced fever with dryness. The prescribed herbal medicines included Yangkyuksanwha-tang, Hyungbangsabaek-san, Hyungbangjihwang-tang, and Hyungbangdojeock-san. Results: The therapeutic outcomes showed that all numerical levels of symptoms such as thirst, polyuria, weight loss, blood sugar, and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) recovered to within normal levels. Conclusions: The results of this study suggest that our medical treatment of type II diabetes mellitus diagnosed as Sogal was a valid treatment. We hope that our team's new evidence and findings will shed positive light on the treatment of type II diabetes mellitus using herbal medicine.
