Abstract

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common and painful human illness that is rapidly responsive to modern antibi- otic therapy. UTI is caused by both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, as well as by certain fungi. The typical symptoms of lower urinary tract infections (LUTI) are dysuria, urinary frequency, and urgency, nocturia, hesitancy, suprapubic discomfort, and gross hematuria. The features of LUTI can be found under the heading Pit- taja Mutrakrichra Lakshana. As Pitta and Vata are the main Doshas involved in the Samprapti of this disease, drugs having Madhura Rasa, Vata-Pitta Samana properties are the ideal choice for the treatment. In Varividar- yadi Kashaya, all the drugs are having Sita Virya and most of the drugs are having Madhura Rasa, Guru- Snigdha Guna, and Madhura Vipaka. So, there is a very need to understand the scope of the usage of Varividaryadi Kashaya in the management of LUTI. Keywords: Urinary tract infection, Pittaja Mutrakrichra, Varividaryadi Kashaya
