This study was performed on the bases of clinical consideration about patient who has malaria. The symptoms of malaria are periodic alternating of chills and fever on everyone, two or three days. The patients feel a chill at the first time of malaria, and have a fever, headache and sweating at the next time. The long cycle of malarial fever such as every 2 or 3 days means that it takes a turn for the worse. In this study, oriental medicine was taken based on the oriental medicine principle such as Dalwonum(達原飮), Sosihotang(小柴胡湯) and Bojungikgitang(補中益氣湯), and the patients take a turn for the better. In the process of treatment if there is no fever in the expected date of the malarial fever, it is sure to have fever in the next expected date. It is favorable that patients lose the chills first and the fever lately in the process of treatment, and we can explain that supporting healthy energy to eliminate evil(扶正祛邪). The long cycle of malarial fever such as every 4, 6 or 9 days means that it is just before the recovery.
