The formulations group of tonic actions in Kampo medicine, called "hozai", are in the limelight recently. Especially, formulations including Astragali root (黄耆 , Huang Qi ; Ougi) which is represented in Jingi-zai (参耆剤) (formulations including Ginseng root with Astragali root) play important role in the treatment of elderly patients. There are two herbs which have been used as Ougi, Astragali root and Hedysari root (晋耆 , Jing Qi ; Shingi) . Although Astragali root and Hedysari root have no similarity botanically, they have been used as comparatively in the clinical scene and even historically, Hedysari root was regarded as being better than Astragalus root. There is no systematic review which explicates the difference and similarity of the two herbs. In this report, we attempt to compare Astragalus root and Hedysari root clinically and pharmacologically, and discuss about the historical and theoretical basis of their clinical applications.
