ABSTRACT

Ayurveda is considered one of the most ancient and well-documented systems of medicine, and it is still significant today. India is recognised as the world's botanical garden because it is the world's biggest producer of medicinal herbs. In Ayurveda, the entire treatment is based on just four treatment pods: Bhishak, dravya, upasthata, and rogi. Chikitsa Chatushpada is another name for it. Dravya, also known as Aushada, is one of the four factors of Chikitsa Chatushpada, and it is ranked second. The wide range of knowledge regarding the drug is very essential to the Physician & Surgeon, because without the proper knowledge of the drug or aushda the patient cannot be treated properly. Ayurveda have a special branch of formulations and we formulate an Prapoundarikadya Ghrita mentioned in Shusruta Samhita, Bhaisajya Ratnavli, and Chakardatta Samhita that if we applied on dushta vrana than it will cure it. After preparation of Prapoundarikadya Ghrita, we have done the physicochemical, phytochemical and HPTLC analysis of drug for standardization of Prapoundarikadya Ghrita.
