Method The 55-year-old woman had severe nausea and vomiting after taking laxatives about 2 months ago. However, endoscopy and other examination findings were unremarkable except for gastritis. Soyangin Dojeokganggi-tang and taeyangin Mihudeungsikjang-tang were applied as a main treatment. Results The symptoms of nausea and vomiting were immediately improved after constipation disappeared applying Mihudeungsikjang-tang. Conclusion This case showed that Mihudeungsikjang-tang according to the appropriate constitutional diagnosis could improve nausea and vomiting which were not improved by other treatments.
