摘要：

A prolonged severe hepatitis of unknown etiology was treated with Inchinko-to, a Chinese herbal medicine, and this case is herein described. Inchinko-to was given with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) and glycyrrhizin. The improvement in the patient's liver function seemed to be accelerated after the treatment, especially after stopping the administration of kanamycin sulfate which might possibly inhibit the conversion of geniposide, one of the constituents of Inchinko-to, to an active ingredient through the suppression of the bacterial growth in intestinal flora, suggesting the usefulness of Inchinko-to for treatment of severe hepatitis.
