Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and Medical Research - Year 2019, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Ayurveda is perceived as one of the most ancient and well documented system of medicine equally relevant in modern times. Its holistic approach whether for healthy individuals or for diseased ones remains unparalleled. The aim of Ayurveda is to bring homeostasis in the tissues in order to maintain health, but Ayurvedic prescriptions are often challenged for their rationality. A vast majority of prescription drug used in Ayurveda contains compounds that are directly or indirectly, via semi-synthesis derived from different plants. The non-availability of reliable and standardized drugs, their high cost, and ambiguity in the identity of the ingredients used are a few of the major problems encountered today in the utilization of compound drugs in Ayurveda. On the other hand Agrya Aushadhi are also described in Ayurveda that has its own potential or qualities. Hetu Pratyanik, Vyadhi Pratyanik and Ubhaya Pratyanik Chikitsa are the main therapeutic measures, commonly existing in practice. In Agrya Aushadhi all these Chikitsa are mentioned for each and every disease. Agrya Aushadhi are cost effective, economical and safe. Also these single drugs were proven for their potentials on modern research parameter. Therefore in this regard, an attempt has been made to review and compile the Agrya Aushada from classical literatures so that they can be used as prescription drugs and helps Ayurveda to maintain “health for all” Goal.
