Journal Title: International Journal of Ayurveda and Pharmaceutical Chemistry - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
Eczema also known as Atopic dermatitis is a non-contagious inflammatory disease of the skin characterized by itching, redness edema, papulovesicles in acute stage; edema and scaling in subacute stage and severe itching, hyperkeratosis and lichenification in the chronic stage. In the developed world Eczema accounts for a large proportion of skin diseases. Current treatment of it provides only symptomatic relief by reducing inflammation and itching. Moreover the allopathic treatment is costly and there are many adverse effects of those drugs. So it has become imperative to search out drugs from natural sources and the herb bhringaraja is one of such kind. The major assessment criteria were itching, erythema, excoriation and oozing. After the complete study which includes treating the patient with orally bhringaraja tablets and locally bhrinagaraja malahar for 60 days, it was observed that the patients who presented with varied degree of symptoms obtained relief to a great extent after the treatment with the Trial drug. The statistical analysis also shows values which are highly significant for the trial drug.
