Abstract
Objective: To report the effects of Siryeng-tang (柴苓湯) and Chijasi-tang (梔子豉湯) on a patient with drug-induced acute renal failure. Methods: A female patient was diagnosed with acute renal failure. The symptoms decreased urine output, tachycardia, dyspnea, and chest discomfort. The patient was treated with Siryeng-tang for one day and Chijasi-tang for about 5 days. Results: After taking Siryeng-tang, urine output increased and the values for blood urea nitrogen and creatinine were decreased to normal. Taking Chijasi-tang improved other related symptoms. Conclusions: Siryeng-tang and Chijasi-tang can improve the symptoms of acute renal failure.
