Efficacy of Yokukansan, a traditional Japanese herbal medicine, in patients with dizziness and irritability

Irritability is an emotional stress symptom that causes or exacerbates dizziness. Antidepressants may be helpful for some conditions that are accompanied by irritability; however, they do not completely inhibit irritability.

The study investigated the efficacy of YKS in nystagmus in patients with chronic dizziness and irritability.
