Abstract
Objectives: This study reports the effects of GeonChil (Rhus verniciflua stokes) pharmacopuncture in patients with dyspepsia. Method: We treated all five patients with GeonChil pharmacopuncture, acupuncture, and moxibustion and evaluated them using the Korean Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (KGSRS), which is used to assess overall gastrointestinal symptoms. Result: After treatment, the KGSRS showed improvement in all five patients. Marked improvement was seen especially in abdominal pain, heartburn, eructation, and increased flatus symptoms. Conclusion: GeonChil pharmacopuncture may represent a new treatment for the improvement of dyspepsia.
