ABSTRACT

Objectives This paper was aimed to review the preceding research on the origins, changes and constructive principle of Dokhwaljihwang-tang. Methods Based on Jema Lee’s works such as Dongyisusebowon and Dongmuyoogo, we analyzed contents related to Dokhwaljihwang-tang and its modification. Moreover, we reviewed physiological and pathological pecularities of Soyangin symptomatology and applied the theory to induce the principle of the modified Dokhwaljihwang-tang in Sasang medicine. Results and Conclusions 1) The origins of Dokhwaljihwang-tang might be Hyungbangpaedoksan, Yukmijihwang-tang. 2) Dokhwaljihwang-tang had been changed in composition when it reconstructed from Suhwagije-tang. 3) Dokhwaljihwang-tang consists of a) Araliae Cordatae Rhizoma(獨活), Saposhnikoviae Radix(防風) which scatter the Pyohan(表寒) b) Rehmanniae Radix (熟地黃), Corni Fructus (山茱萸) Poria Sclerotium(茯苓) and Alismatis Rhizoma (澤瀉), which strengthen kidney-eum(補腎陰) 4) Moutan Radicis Cortex (牧丹皮), which regulates kidney Qi (錯綜腎氣 參伍勻調) and clears internal heat(裏熱).
