A polyherbal tablet made from ten main ingredients processed with gomutra (cow urine) as a bio-enhancer .

🧪 Ingredients

Typically, the ingredients (often in equal proportions) include:

Stimulates digestive fire (Agni), helps eliminate ama (undesirable toxins), reduces bloating, indigestion, diarrhea, and worms.

Acts as an antipyretic and diaphoretic—helps reduce fevers and induce sweating to expel toxins; also exhibits antimicrobial and antiviral activity for respiratory and gut infections.

Helps clear congestion, balance Kapha, relieve cough, and improve lung function due to ingredients like Pippali and Black Pepper.

Useful in Aamavata (rheumatoid arthritis), gout, and inflammatory conditions—reduces swelling and joint discomfort by pacifying Vata-Kapha.

Boosts overall immunity, improves energy, mental clarity, and is used in chronic debility or recovery phases.

Adults: Typically 1–2 tablets, once or twice daily after meals, taken with warm water or ginger juice.
Special conditions:
- Fever: up to 2 tablets once or twice a day
- Snakebite (traditional adjunct): 3 tablets once or twice a day
- Chronic fevers: up to 4 tablets once or twice a day, as per classical texts.
Children: Lower dose (e.g. half adult dose or 2 mg/kg under physician guidance) or syrup form preferred.
Duration: Use typically 1–2 months under guidance; longer only with practitioner supervision.

Not recommended in early pregnancy, lactation, peptic ulcers, or severe Pitta imbalance unless guided by an Ayurvedic doctor.
Potential side effects: mild gastrointestinal upset, heartburn, acidity, diarrhea, or allergic reactions—especially if overdosed or taken on an empty stomach.
People sensitive to Semecarpus anacardium (Bhallataka) or Aconitum (Vatsanabha) should avoid this medicine.
