Abstract
Mutrashmari (Urolithiasis) is a disorder of Mutravaha Srotas (urinary system). Mutrashmari is Apravrittijanya disease caused due to vitiation of Mutravaha Srotasa.The predominant Dosha in Ashmari is Kapha. So increased Kapha may cause Ashmari formation.Vitiated Kapha due to Nidana Sevana, mixes with Mutra, enters with urine in urinary system and precipitate to form Ashmari. A clinical trial was done on randomly selected patients of Mutrashmari with Laghu Varunadi Kwatha, described by Pandit Rajeshwar Dutta Shastri Vaidya in Ashmari Prakaran of Chikitsadarsha.Tab Cystone was taken as standard to compare the efficacy of Laghu Varunadi Kwath in the management of Mutrashmari (Urolithiasis). All 30 registered patients of Mutrashmari were randomly divided into two groups. Fifteen patients were administered with Tab. Cystone (2 Tabs BD) and another 15 patients with Laghu Varunadi Kwath (80 ml BD) for 45 days. On comparison of efficacy of Laghu Varunadi Kwath and Tab. Cystone, Laghu Varunadi Kwath seems to be more effective in the management of Mutrashmari. Laghu Varunadi Kwath possess the ideal properties of disintegration and expulsion of urinary stones and it help to reduce sign and symptoms of Mutrashmari (Urolithiasis).
