Results : The group induced chronic diarrhea by Rhei Radix and castor oil had lower gastric secretion ability and nutritional condition was lower than that of the normal group. The figures for group given Sagunjatanghapchangchuljiyutang showed improvement, especially gastrin, total lipid and hematocrit.
