Objectives: This study examines the effect of <i>Banhabaekchulcheonma-tang</i> on Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) through a systematic review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure Database (CNKI).Methods: RCTs were included that tested the effect of <i>Banhabaekchulcheonma-tang</i> on BPPV. A study of the literature in the CNKI was performed for papers published from January 1, 2011 to June 30, 2021.Results: A total of eight RCTs met the inclusion criteria. All studies identified the effect of <i>Banhabaekchulcheonma-tang</i> in the treatment of BPPV. The effectiveness of treatment was higher in the intervention group than in the control group, as shown through evaluation indicators, including the total effective rate, dizziness handicap inventory (DHI), and blood lipids.Conclusion: Treatment with <i>Banhabaakchulcheonma-tang</i> was found to be effective in treating BPPV. However, due to the low quality of available studies, the significance of this conclusion is somewhat limited. Further clinical studies are needed on the development of diagnosis and treatment methods for BPPV based on Korean medicine.
Objective: This case report describes a patient who suffered a drug-induced liver injury and was treated with <i>Saengganggeonbi-tang</i>.Methods: A patient was treated with Korean herbal medicine, and the treatment effect was evaluated using liver function tests (LFT) to determine total cholesterol and triglyceride levels.Results: The patient’s LFT levels were normal on 27 July 2021 but became abnormal by 12 August 2021 after taking Western drugs. After 15 days of treatment with Saengganggeonbi-tang, the LFT levels had improved.Conclusion: This study shows that <i>Saenggangeonbi-tang</i> may be an effective treatment for drug-induced liver injury.
