There has been some controversy about the effect of the woohwang chungsimwon, a traditional herb remedy for cerebral stroke or neurosis, on the systemic hypertension. The antihypertensive effect and symptomatic improvement of CSM-solution, a new product of Chosunmuyack Pharm, were evaluated in 31 patients with essential hypertension in double blind cross over manner.
Headache (84% vs placebo 52%), dizziness (84% vs placebo 32%), tinnitus (89% vs placebo 45%), palpitation (100% vs placebo 52%), numbness of extrimities(95% vs placebo 33%) and reduction effect of blood pressure (45% vs placebo 13%) improved more during the drug administration.
These findings suggest that CSM-solution can be used for symptomatic relief or as an adjuvant of other antihypertensive agents in the treatment of essential hypertension.
