Diabetic Peripheral Polyneuropathy is one of the most distressing complications of diabetes, Drugs such as narcotic analgesics, tricyclic antidepressants, anticonvulsants and phenothiazines have been used to treat diabetic peripheral polyneuropathy, but these drugs are not very effective for the many patients and the side effects may become intolerable. In oriental medicine, usually the main etiology of diabetic Peripheral Polyneuropathy is insufficiency of Blood due to the state of dry-heat in the human body. Therefore, we use Bogan-tang to treat numbness of Diabetic Peripheral Polyneuropathy. Bogan-tang was administrated twice a day for 15 days, and VAS Scale was performed every day to evaluate numbness and insufficiency of blood. In both cases, numbness and insufficiency of blood were improved without any side effects. This study suggests that Bogan-tang is an effective drug in the treatment of Diabetic Peripheral Polyneuropathy.
