Ayurveda is an old and evolved science of medicine based on unique fundamental principles. Bhaishajya Kalpana is a sub-discipline of Ayurveda which is devoted to herbal drug formulations like Vati, Asava, Arishta, Taila, Ghrita etc. Various minute modifications are suggested in classical texts for preparation of various Taila (oils). In Bhaishajya Ratnavali, it is said that, the duration of Taila-Paka (oil processing) with various Drava-Dravyas (liquid media) should be like: (i) Kvatha, Aranala, Takra, Gomutra etc. - 5 days (ii) Swarasa - 3 days (iii) Dugdha - 2 days (iv) Mansa Rasa - 1 day. Karviradya Taila is Ayurvedic oil mentioned in the text of Gada-Nigraha in Kushtha Chikitsa. Karviradya Taila contains Gomutra (cow’s urine). In the present study, two batches of Karviradya Taila were prepared. In Batch A, Taila-Siddhi was achieved in one day and in Batch B Taila-Siddhi was done in 5 days. Both the batches were subjected to pharmaceutical analysis for understanding the difference in qualitative and quantitative parameters of Taila when the duration of Taila-Paka was changed
