Objectives: This study is aimed to describe the effects of using a traditional Korean herbal medicine, Jaeumkunbi-tang, on acute dizziness and gait disturbance that arose during treatment for trigeminal neuralgia. Methods: We closely observed one female patient who had been hospitalized complaining of trigeminal neuralgia and acute onset of dizziness. The patient was treated using Korean medical treatments, such as Oyaksungi-san, Jaeumkunbi-tang, acupuncture, and moxibustion. We evaluated the patient’s condition using the visual analog scale (VAS) at the Department of Hepato-Hemopoietic System, Kyung Hee University Korean Medicine Hospital in June 2019 for 12 days. Results: The patient’s dizziness was decreased after treating with Jaeumkunbi-tang for five days as measured by the VAS score. Conclusions: Jaeumkunbi-tang appears to be effective for controlling dizziness.
