Abstract
Ardhvabhedaka (migraine without aura) is characterized by severe tearing, pricking and piercing pain in one half of the head and giddiness which develops suddenly after ten days or a fortnight. Based on signs and symptoms it may correlate with migraine characterized by half sided headache associated with nausea, vomiting, photophobia and Phonophobia. The current line of management for migraine advocates the use of analgesics and antiemetic’s, vasoconstrictors, sumatriptan, topiramate, flunarizine, Propranolol. Ayurveda emphasizes various treatment modalities of Ardhvabhedaka, includes both Shodhana and Shamana. Nasya is one among them. In this study, A 45 year old female patient visited our OPD complaining of left half side headache associated with Phonophobia, vomiting and photophobia since 2 years. She was treated with local and oral analgesic medicine for which she did not get relief. We treated this case with anutaila Nasya and patyadikhada orally for 7 days along with Patya- Apathy. Patient was happy with the treatment.
