Putapaka- A Conceptual Study
Journal Title: International Journal of Ayurveda and Pharmaceutical Chemistry - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
In Ayurvedic treatises, the local treatment procedures of netra are explained as netra kriyakalpas. These procedures help to alleviate the diseases and to strengthen the proper functioning of eye. Mode of application of this medicine is very specific in case of eye diseases. Based upon that seven kriyakalpas have been explained by ancient Acharyas and putapaka is one of them. It is a highly modified procedure for ophthalmic medication in which Putapaka Rasa is used in the same mode of application as that of tarpana. It is indicated specially in kapha predominant conditions but can also be used in vata and pitta predominant conditions.
