Abstract

Durvadya Taila is medicated oil used in Ayurveda for Kacchu, Vicharchika and Pama (types of Skin diseases) which is caused by vitiated Kapha or Pitta Dosha. Durva is one of the classical drugs of herbal origin, for the management of different disease conditions. The aim of the present study is to do physico-chemical standards for above Durvadya Taila and its conversion into Durvadya Taila Cream. These two formulations have a special importance from pharmaceutical point of view when compared to usual Taila or cream. In present article, we are trying to study analytical results of Durvadya Taila w.s.r. to Durvadya Taila cream. The skin constitutes a major part of the body and serves as a dividing line between the individual and his environment. In the Ayurvedic classics, Bahir Parimarjana means, the medicine intended for external use only. For that purpose, in Ayurveda different forms of external applications are described for the convenience of treatment of different diseases. They are Lepa, Udvartana, Upanaha, Abhyanga, Malahara etc. Without defining creams under Panchavidha Kashaya Kalpana, we can correlate Cream preparation with Lepa or Malahara Kalpana. Creams are those emulsions, which are either oil in-water or water-in-oil type. Durvadya Taila is medicated oil used in Ayurveda for Kacchu, Vicharchika and Pama which comes under Kushtha Rogadhikar.
