ABSTRACT
As mental stress has a great impact on the symptoms of atopic dermatitis, we administered Qi-related prescriptions to 6 patients with atopic dermatitis. Not only were mental and autonomic imbalances, but also skin conditions were improved in all six. We examined changes in palmoplantar sweating and a self-rating depression scale to evaluate the effectiveness of the Qi-related prescriptions. The Qi-related prescriptions were used in combination with standard treatments as follows : keishikaryukotsuboreito in Case 1, shigyakusan in Cases 2 and 3, yokukansankachimpihange and keishikaryukotsuboreito in Case 4, shigyakusan and keishikaryukotsuboreito in Case 5, and saikokeisikankyoto in Case 6. It appears to be important to treat Qi-disorders, along with skin disorders, in patients with atopic dermatitis.
