We had one female ALS patient. The patient was diagnosed with ALS by EMG and Symptoms. We diagnosed the patient as Jinshang(筋傷) and Pishenyangxu(脾腎陽虛). We gave Shaoyaogancao-tang jiami(芍藥甘草湯加味) and Sijunzi-tang he Lizhong-tang jiami(四君子合理中湯加味) based on the differentiation of symtoms. We report the changes of the ALS patient's disphagia, lalopathy, and hypotonia after two months treatment with Riluzole and oriental medical treatment.
