中醫治療B 型肝炎中風藥應用的病例報告

Application of Traditional Chinese Medicine with Wind Herbs in Patient with Chronic Hepatitis B: A Case Report

本病例報告描述治療一個B型肝炎肝功能指數高，伴隨疲倦及嗜睡症狀，初期使用疏肝解鬱和清利濕熱的藥物後，肝功能指數不降反升，在加入風藥使用升陽除濕的方式後，肝功能回復正常的療程。B型肝炎中醫治療上常常以清肝利濕為主要治療方式，因此在用藥上以清利濕熱、淡滲利濕和疏肝解鬱的藥物為主，但是袪濕之法不是只有淡滲利濕，若加入風藥提升陽氣，加強氣機升降，運用升陽除濕的方式，會起化龍點睛之功效。藉由此病例可知風藥的運用值得醫者在臨床面對此類病症時參考的良好方法之一。
