Abstract

Cholelithiasis is a crystalline concretion formed within the gall bladder by accretion of bile components. Cholelithiasis can be considered as Pittashaya Ashmari, but there is no direct reference of this condition available in Ayurveda. In Ayurveda the effective treatment is Paneeya Kshara. Surya and Navasadara Paneeya Kshara is standard one and which is highly effective treatment in the management of Cholelithiasis but, persisting pain, presence of calculi has limited in its use. To overcome the lacunas present study has been carried out. This study was conducted at SJIIM Hospital Bengaluru and total of 40 patients were randomly allotted into two groups namely Group A with trial drug i.e. 2grams each of Narikela Lavana, Navasadara, Yava Kshara orally with Jala once daily in empty stomach in the morning, every day for 28 days and Group B with control drug i.e. 2grams of Surya and Navasadara Paneeya Kshara orally with Narikela Jala once daily in empty stomach in the morning, every day for 28 days.
