ABSTRACT

Amlapitta – the burning problem of present era was firstly described in details in Kashyapa samhita. Amlapitta is one of the diseases of Annavaha srotasa (Gastro-intestinal tract) & there is mainly vitiation of “Pitta” dosha. Clinically, Amlapitta can be compared with Hyperacidity. Nowadays, change in life-style and dietary habits has increased the prevalence of this disease world-wide. Though ample research work has been carried out for alleviating the disease, it still remains incurable in chronic stage. Keeping in view the above facts, a study was conducted over 30 patients who were divided into three groups, each having 10 patients. Group I was treated with “Guduchyadi Compound”, Group II was treated with “Guduchyadi Compound” after kostha shuddhi with “Trivrutadi Yoga” and Group III was treated with Placebo drug for a period of six weeks. After the completion of the treatment, the cardinal & associated symptoms of Amlapitta were assessed clinically. Comparatively, the results of the Group II were more accurate & better than Group I & Group III.
