Journal Title: Journal of Biological and Scientific Opinion - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
Agada tantra is a subject which deals with various poisons and its treatment. For the management of different poisons many formulations are mentioned in the treatises of Ayurveda. One such Agada yoga that is mentioned in the context of snake bite management is Sanjivana agada quoted in Shusruta Kalpasthana in the context of treatment of snake bite. It contains ten ingredients including eight herbs, ghee and honey. The easy availability of the ingredients and simplicity of the preparation and preservation of the formulation may encourage the physician to use this formulation in poisoning conditions. So an effort has been made to review this formulation in order to its pharmacological properties for its medicinal use.
