Abstract

Objectives: There has not been the comparison research of medication on the Insomnia as the complementary significance of the Oriental-Western Cooperative Therapeutic Viewpoint so far. The aim of this preliminary research is to study Eastern and Western Medication Model for the Insomnia through the comparison of Oriental Medication based on ??Sang Han Lon?? and ??Dong yui bo gam??.
Methods: The author researched oriental-western viewpoints and the present treatment condition of Sleep and Sleeping Pills with reference to Korean articles issued since 1975, dissertations, journals registered or candidated on KCI, alternative medicine journals on Pubmed, and books concerning Neuropsychiatry. In the field of Oriental medical study, this study was demonstrated on ??The Oriental Medical textbook of neuropsychiatry??, ??Sang han lon??, ??Dong yui bo gam?? and the present research trend.
Results: In Oriental Medicine, Insomnia is treated according to si-jie-bu-shui-zung (ÞÖÌ¿Üôâ²ñû) type, rong-xie-bu-zu-zung (ç´úìÝÕðëñû) type, yin-her-nae-re-zung (ëäúÈÒ®æðñû) type, xin-dan-her-qie-zung (ãýÓÅúÈÌ¥ñû) type, dam-xian-yu-jie-zung (ÓÃæÎê¦Ì¿ñû) type, and wei-zhong-bu-he-zung (êÖñéÜôûúñû) type etc. In Western Medicine, Insomnia has been treated by Barbiturate over 60¡¯s and BZ over 70¡¯s. According to recent treatment on Insomnia, Zolpidem or Zaleplon, which is short-lived and has less side effects, is used much, and tri-cyclic antidepressants are prescribed on a chronic psycho-physiological insomnia.
Conclusions: Generally, Insomnia is being treated by controlling whole ways. The oriental medication is less effective for sleep induction. On the contrary, that of western medication is very effective for sleep induction, but there are many possibilities of side effects. If this two mutual therapy is conducted cooperatively, more effective medical care might be expected. Therefore, it is considered that not only the oriental medical study for sleep induction, but the study of Oriental-Western Cooperative Therapy should be preceded to treat Insomnia from now on.
