Abstract

A 84 year old male patient with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) was treated by Jeungsonbaekchulsan and Gakbyeongyeonsu-tang for ten days. In the course of treatments, this patient was evaluated with Roussel Uclaf Casusality Assessment Method (RUCAM), showing results of drug induced liver injury. Herb medicine was immediately discontinued, followed by therapeutic laser treatments once a day for one week combined with 2 weeks of GODEX$^{(R)}$ administration. Transaminase results were lowered and changes in blood test results were time-effective changes. Therapeutic laser therapy could be considered effective on drug induced liver injury with further studies.
