Objective : In this SLE case, we considered 'gyeol-che-su-dok(結滯水毒)'. Because this is a Gungang's efficacy, we treated this patient with Gamcho-Gungang-Tang. We got effective results, thus we report this case.
Method : After treatment for 6 months with Sammul-Hwanggum-Tang, Chija-Baikpi-Tang, Baegduong- Tang and Gamcho-Gungang-Tang, we observe the changes and analyze results.
Results :
1. SLE can be cured with Gungang's efficacy based on Sanghanron (傷寒論).
2. We consider that Gamcho-Gungang-Tang can improve the symptoms of SLE by removing 'dok'- poison- from abodominal organs.
Conclusion : Gamcho-Gungang-Tang based on Sanghanron has an effect on SLE. But we need to study this pharmacologic and biological mechanism.
KeyWords : Systemic Lupus Erythmatosus (SLE), Gamcho-Gungang-Tang
