title: [Studies on the hidropoiesis of the decoction of gui-zhi tang in mice and rats].
abstract: Effects of the Decoction of Gui Zhi Tang (DGZT) on the hidropoiesis of animal paw in different pathophysiological conditions were studied with the examination of sweat stains. The diaphoresis was found in normal rats when 2.5-10.0 g crude drugs/kg p.o. of the DGZT was administrated. The diaphoretic function was also promoted by DGZT in mice infected with influenza virus which the function was gradually suppressed. The decoction had the action of bidirectional regulation and normalization in polyhidrosis induced by aminopyrine or in hypohidrosis induced by atropine on rats.
