Effect of Koso-san on globus pharyngeus.
Twenty-three patients with globus pharyngeus were treated with Koso-san (TJ-70) at a dose of 7.5 g/day for at least 14 days. Symptoms disappeared in 18 cases and improved in 3 cases, therefore, the effective rate was 91.3% (21/23). The symptoms disappeared on average within 13.5 days. Terasawa qi-stasis scores were significantly decreased after the treatment. TJ-70 might thus be a remedy for globus pharyngeus with qi-stasis.
