Abstract
Abstract Here, we report a case in which the use of bofu-tsusho-san (BF) was effective for weight loss. A 22-year-old woman with a height of 157 cm, weight of 154.8 kg, and body mass index (BMI) of 63.6 kg/m 2 was hospitalized. We limited her dietary calories and prescribed exercise, but there was little resulting decrease in her body weight. We administered BF as an anti-obesity drug. Following BF administration, more effective exercise and improved psychroesthesia of her extremities was observed. Her body weight decreased to 145.3 kg and her BMI decreased to 59.7 kg/m 2 over 3 months. Additionally, her resting metabolic rate (RMR) increased from 2260 to 2440 kcal/day.
