This experiment was conducted to study anti-stress effects of Guibiondamtang on several measures of stress, which were number of lever pressing, weight changes, water intake and gastroduodenal ulcer. The following results were observed: 1. There were no significant differences between the control group and the sample group in total number of lever pressing. And no significant differences were observed in the shock duration and the shock length. 2. The median water intake during the stress was 25ml for the sample group and 17ml for the control group and the difference was not statistically significant. 3. The median body weight losess after the psychological stress was given were 28g for the sample group and 35g for the control group and the difference was not statistically significant. 4. The mean frequencies of gastric ulcers induced by the psychological stress were 0.3 for the sample group and 2.3 for the control group and the difference was statistically significant. 5. The mean lengths of gastric ulcers induced by the psychological stress were 0.3mm for the sample group and 2.8mm for the control group and the difference was statistically significant. 6. The mean ratings of gastric ulcers induced by the psychological stress were 0.7 for the sample group and 1.9 for the control group and the difference was stastically significant. Thus it may be concluded that Guibiondamtang has an antistress effect.
