ABSTRACT |
To assess the clinical efficacy of Sunghyangjunggi-san on acute cerebral infarction, we prescribed this medicine to 94 acute stroke patients without thrombolytic treatment. The rate of progressive stroke type was 7.4%, remarkably lower than previous reports. 1.1% felt an itching sensation, 4.3% complained of constipation, insomnia, or chest discomfort. Sunghyangjunggi-san decreased Stroke-Pattern Identification and National Institute of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS), and increased Modified Barthel Index(MBI). So we could suggest that this medicine has desirable effect of reducing the severity of stroke and of improving functional recovery. As to the laboratory findings, ALT had an upward tendency and increased over normal value in 13 cases (13.8%). But the mean serum level 2 weeks later was within normal values and the other hepatic enzymes did not increase. |
