Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this paper is to report the improvement in a patient with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) treated with herbal medication based on the Shanghanlun disease pattern identification diagnostic system.

Methods: According to the ‘Disease Pattern Identification Diagnostic System based on Shanghanlun Provisions,’the patient was diagnosed with Guorem-byung number 350 provision, and took Baekho-tang herbal medication for 15 days. The result of administration was evaluated using the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) and the Visual Analog Scale (VAS).

Results: After administration of Baekho-tang for 15 days, based on the 350 provision of Baekho-tang diagnosed according to the Shanghanlun provisions, the DHI score decreased from 74 to 16 and the VAS score decreased from 10 to 1.

Conclusions: The patient recovered from symptoms of BPPV. This case report suggests that the words ‘滑,’‘厥,’‘裏’on the 350 provision of Shanghanlun mean physical and psychological causes of BPPV in this case.
