Abstract
Introduction: This case report addressed the effect of Korean medicine treatments on a patient with hemorrhagic anemia due to lower gastrointestinal bleeding. Case report: An 83-year-old male with lower gastrointestinal bleeding was treated with Korean medicine, including the herbal medication Subi-jeon. We evaluated the improvements of symptoms by hemoglobin levels and numbers of transfusions. From the 6th day of taking the herbal medicine to discharge, a hemoglobin level of 7 g/dL or higher was maintained and the patient did not require blood transfusion. Conclusions: This clinical case study suggests that Subi-jeon might be effective in cases of hematosis of lower gastrointestinal bleeding.
