Abstract

Objective: This study investigated the effects of <i>Guibiondam-tang-gamibang</i> on patients in the thyrotoxic phase of painless thyroiditis.Methods: A patient in the thyrotoxic phase of painless thyroiditis was treated with <i>Guibiondam-tang-gamibang</i> combined with Western medicine (i.e., beta blockers). The effect of treatment was evaluated according to the pulse rate, NRS, the frequency of subjective symptoms, and sleep time. In addition, the thyroid function was evaluated with TSH, Free T4, and T3 using blood tests.Results: After treatment, the pulse rate decreased, and the NRS and frequency of subjective symptoms disappeared after improvement. Sleep time increased. In the thyroid function test, a significant normalization of each value was observed.Conclusion: This study suggests that <i>Guibiondam-tang-gamibang</i> can be effectively treated in patients with painless thyroiditis in the thyrotoxic phase. However, further studies should be conducted.
