Kaiyadeva Nighantu</em> mentions it under <em>Chandanadi Varga</em> and is useful in diseases like <em>Vrana</em> (wound) and <em>Daha</em> (burning sensation). Among <em>Rasa, Guna, Veerya, Vipaka, Karma- Veerya</em> is important factor in deciding therapeutic efficacy of the drug. <em>Veerya</em> means the potency of a <em>Dravya</em> which enables the <em>Dravya</em> to show its action. It is considered as the active principle of a <em>Dravya</em>. If the potency of the drug is less, it results in poor therapeutic action. So <em>Veerya</em> of the drug plays important role in Ayurvedic treatment principles.<strong> Objective:</strong> To analyze the <em>Veerya</em> of the drug by endothermic reactions. <strong>Materials and Methods:</strong> An experimental trial is done to decide the <em>Veerya</em> of <em>Patranga</em> (<em>Caesalpinia Sappan </em>Linn<em>.)</em> by using endothermic <em>Veerya</em> analysis method. <strong>Result:</strong><em> Patranga</em> (<em>Caesalpinia Sappan </em>Linn<em>.)</em> being <em>Sheeta Veerya Dravya</em> shown endothermic reaction when mixed in water. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Endothermic chemical reactions occur which reduce temperature. The theory behind decrease in the temperature can be stated due to <em>Sheeta Veeryata</em> of the <em>Dravya</em>.</p&gt;}, number={5}, journal={Journal of Ayurveda and Integrated Medical Sciences}, author={Subrahmanya Bhat and Pooja Bhat and Chetan M}, year={2021}, month={Nov.}, pages={91 - 93} }
