| Research Abstract |
Microvascular angina is a condition characterized by angina-like chest pain with normal coronary angiography and mostly observed in the postmenopausal women. Keishibukuryougan (KBG) is a traditional Kampo medicine and improves microcirculation in peripheral vessel. However, its effect on the coronary microcirculation has not been evaluated. We measured the coronary flow velocity by echo-cardiography and determined the coronary flow velocity reserve before and after oral administration of KBG in young healthy volunteers. KBG significantly improved CFVR, suggested the potential therapeutic usefulness of KBG for coronary microvascular angina.
