Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Samchilgeun powder (panax notoginseng) on the treatment of hematuria in a patient requiring double antiplatelet therapy due to recurrent cerebral infarction. Methods: The patient was treated with Samchilgeun powder (panax notoginseng) combined with Western medicine (an antiplatelet). Urinalysis was performed to observe hematuria and proteinuria levels, and blood tests were used to evaluate anemia levels. Results: After treatment, hematuria levels decreased without exacerbation of anemia and proteinuria and even recurrence of cerebral infarction. Conclusions: This study suggests that Samchilgeun powder (panax notoginseng) can effectively treat patients with hematuria requiring double antiplatelet therapy due to recurrent cerebral infarction, but further studies should be conducted.
