Abstract

|
|
Objectives : The purpose of this study was to compare the prescriptions used for insomnia in Uihagimmun and Donguibogam.
Methods : In Uihagimmun, 17 prescriptions were selected. If there was a change in the medicinal material, the altered herbal medicine was indicated along with the prescription name. In Donguibogam, 14 prescriptions were selected. Each prescription was analyzed by dividing it into prescription composition, and herbal medicine. Medications constituting a prescription were classified according to the classification of Korean herbal medicines , and arranged based on their frequency of appearance.
Result: The causes of insomnia were classified mainly as exhaustion in Uihagimmun and as exhaustion, stress, low energy, aging, and discomfort in Donguibogam. In Uihagimmun, numerous medicines were used to relieve fever, and in Donguibogam, the use of stabilizers increased. More warm medicines were used in Donguibogam than in Uihagimmun, and the taste trend was similar in each.
Conclusions: The types of causes of insomnia increased more in Donguibogam than Uihagimmun. Accordingly, the two books showed differences in drug classification and properties of a medicine. However, in terms of taste and action of medicinal herbs, they showed similar patterns, and there was only a difference in the order of frequency.
