Journal Title: International Journal of Ayurveda and Pharmaceutical Chemistry - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
Chronobiology is the science which deals with the biological rhythmic phenomenon in the living system. Chronopharmacology is the branch of Chronobiology which deals with the Pharmacologic aspects of Chronobiology. In Ayurveda, Aushadha Sevana Kala is the proper time of administering the aushadha (medicine). The proper knowledge of Agni (digestive fire) and Aushadha Sevana Kala (time for drug administration) will help in understanding the food and drug interaction which is helpful in the proper treatment of a patient. In different Ayurvedic texts, Acharyas had defined Aushadha Sevana Kalas according to the biological clock for attaining the equilibrium between the Doshas and Dhatus which ultimately leads to swasthya (good health). The present article is an attempt made to have a Critical Study of different Aushadha Sevana Kala in Ayurveda with special reference to Chronopharmacology.
