Abstract

Rasashastra and Bhaishajya Kalpana is indeed a significant branch of Ayurveda, focusing on formulations prepared from different sources such as metals, minerals, marine drugs, herbal drugs, and silicate drugs. The Dhatryadi Kwatha is categorized under Kwatha Kalpana,^[1] which involves the preparation of decoctions. Dhatryadi Kwatha specifically mentioned in classical texts for its therapeutic benefits in conditions such as Mutrakrichra (dysuria), Switra Kustha (leprosy), Hikka (hiccups), Prameha (Diabetes mellitus), Shiroroga (disease related to head), and Raktapitta (bleeding disorders). The drugs mentioned in Dhatryadi Kwatha are known for properties such as anti-inflammatory, anti-tussive, anti-asthmatic, diuretic, antioxidant, and demulcent effects. According to various classical texts like Bhaishajya Ratnavali, Yogaratnakara, Vangasena, Chakradatta, Vrandamadava, Gadanigraha, and Vaidyamrutha, In total, there are eight references across these classical texts that elaborate on the composition and therapeutic uses of Dhatryadi Kwatha, emphasizing its effectiveness in various medical conditions.
