| Abstract;We found an increase in blood flow in the central retinal artery attributable to Hachimi-jio-gan(HJG) extract granules, using the latest ultrasonic diagnosis device. A further examination was added concerning the relation between HJG components and the increase of blood flow. The decoction of HJG produced an increased blood flow in the central retinal artery, as did the extract granules. This increase, however, was not observed in the case of a decoction or extract granules of Rokumi-gan(RG). Central retinal artery exhibited a decrease in vascular resistance after administration of decoctions of Cinnamon Bark and of Aconite Tuber. The increased blood flow in the central retinal artery, however, occurred to a lesser extent with a decoction of 2 crude drugs(Cinnamon Bark and Aconite Tuber) and with a decoction of 7 crude drugs that added Cinnamon Bark or Aconite Tuber to RG(which contains neither Aconite Tuber nor Cinnamon Bark, unlike HJG which contains both). It is suggested that the cause of increased blood flow in the central retinal artery attributable to HJG is shown by the result, which means that all 8 ingredients(RG, Cinnamon Bark, and Aconite Tuber) are needed.
