This paper confirmed the effect of Baekho-tang(ÛÜûÛ÷·) on psoriasis patient diagnosed with Yangmyung-Yeoljeung(åÕÙ¥æðñû). We treated patients with psoriasis classified as Yangmyung-Yeoljeung(åÕÙ¥æðñû) according to Shanghanlun(ß¿ùÎÖå) with Baekho-tang(ÛÜûÛ÷·). Two patients was treated with Baekho-tang(ÛÜûÛ÷·) for 18 days and 75 days, respectively. Baekho-tang(ÛÜûÛ÷·) used in the treatment consisted of Gypsum Fibrosum 16g, Oryza semen 12.5g, Anemarrhena Rhizoma 6g and Glycyrrhizae Radix 2g. The severity of psoriasis was evaluated by PASI(psoriasis area severity index) and pictures. Also we checked the change in Pruritus by VAS(visual analogue scale). After the Baekho-tang(ÛÜûÛ÷·) treatment, the PASI of 2 patients decreased from 13 to 2.8 and from 10.8 to 0.8 respectively. In addition, VAS of 2 patients diminished from 10 to 3 and from 8 to 1 respectively. Moreover, no side effects were observed. We received effective results by giving Baekho-tang to Psoriasis patients with sweaty, dry mouth, and heating sensation. Anti-inflammatory, antipyretic effects and immunomodulatory functions of Baekho-tang(ÛÜûÛ÷·) could lead to improvement of psoriasis.
