Background: Pueraria Decoction (PD) is a Japanese herbal medicine of Kampo tradition, which is used for acute
febrile diseases, inflammatory disease and allergic rhinitis. Moreover, PD is reported to have beneficial effects on
autonomic disturbance in patients.
Objective: The objective of the study is to investigate the effects of PD on autonomic nervous system of healthy adult
subjects using spectral analysis of heart rate and blood pressure variability during Head-Up Tilt Test (HUTT). Here,
we investigated the effects of PD on autonomic nervous system of healthy adults using spectral analysis of heart rate
and blood pressure variability during Head-Up Tilt Test (HUTT).
Methods: Twenty healthy subjects were divided into young and middle-aged groups, and examined twice with HUTT,
