Patients had a history of hypertension (46.0%), diabetes (22.2%), stroke (17.4%), lung disease (12.6%), and cancer (11.1%). According to the diagnosis, 48 patients (76.1%) were assigned to the peripheral dizziness group, 7 patients (11.1%) to the central dizziness group, and 8 patients (12.6%) to other dizziness groups. 2) Compared with the peripheral dizziness group, the central dizziness group was older, their history of hypertension 8.4 times greater, their history of stroke 7.8 times greater, and the duration of herbal medicine administration was longer. 3) The vertigo grade was significantly decreased after taking Jeoreongchajeonja-tang (p=0.000). 4) As age increased by one year, odds ratio of improvement in the vertigo grade decreased by 0.924 times after taking Jeoreongchajeonja-tang (p=0.010). 5) Sex, disease duration, past history, diagnosis, the duration of herbal medicine administration, whether or not Yanggyuksanhwa-tang was combined with the Jeoreongchajeonja-tang and whether or not Western medicine was used did not affect improvement in the vertigo grade after taking Jeoreongchajeonja-tang.
