Objectives The purpose of this study is to understand the influence of Daesihog-tang on Taeeum-in's patholoy and prescription in "Donguisusebowon" of Sasang Constitutional Medicine. Methods The pathologic condition in which Daesihog-tang used and the relevant herbs and prescriptions in "Sanghanron", "Donguibogam", "Dongmuyoogo haedong", "Chobongwon", and "Donguisusebowon". Results and Conclusions 1. Daesiho-tang in "Sanghanron" was used to the symptom of Yangmyung disease merging with Soyang disease. In "Donguibogam", its indications were mainly used to the severe fever-symptom of Yangmyung disease and expanded to Onbyeong and so on. 2. The concept of Daesiho-tang in "Donguibogam" was changed into Hwanggeumdaehwang-tang in "Chobongwon", which can be used to treat Onbyeong with heat-dysenteric diarrhea, and severe fever of Taeeum-in. 3. The notion of combination between Daehwang and hwanggeum used in "Dongmuyoogo haedong" and "Chobongwon" was connected to Chungmongsukgondamhwan or Jogakhwanggeumdaehwang-tang in "Chobongwon". Especially, Jogakhwanggeumdaehwang-tang for Yeokkigammo and severe constipation was formed while the concept of Onbyeong in Hwanggeumdaehwang-tang' merged with the usage of Jogak and Daehwang or Yisunggugo-hwan. 4. Jogakhwanggeumdaehwang-tang influenced on the usage of Jogakdaehwang-tang for Yangdok and Onbyeong, while the usage of Chungmongsukgondamhwan was not found in "Donguisusebowon". 5. As a result, Daesiho-tang may be presented without usages for a specific patholoy in "Donguisusebowon" because it indirectly influenced on the concept of Yangdok and Onbyeong of Taeeum-in, and the formation of Jogakdaehwang-tang in "Donguisusebowon".
