Results after the first and the second antigen applications were omitted because increased ear thickness and drug effects were negligible. Each value represents the mean ± SEM of 5–8 mice. < 0.05, < 0.01 for Kampo medicine-administered groups by multiple comparison test, < 0.05, < 0.01 for prednisolone-administered group by -test
