Abstract

Background: Malavastambha (Constipation) is defined as the infrequent and difficult passage of stool. The main features of Constipation are infrequent or hard stool, abdominal pain, bloating, and feeling of unsatisfactory bowel evacuation. Contemporary laxatives, which are generally used in Constipation, become habitual after some duration and only symptomatic relief. Moreover, these medicines never alter the pathogenesis of the disease. So, it is a need of hour to search effective, safe & alternative formulations in Ayurveda, which can completely break the pathogenesis of Constipation. As per Ayurveda, Vata Dosha is the main factor involved in this condition. Therefore, the prime treatment principle recommended by Ancient Acharyas is to pacify Vata by using Vatahara herbs medicated with Snigdha Dravya, Amla, and Lavana Varga. The Chincha Lavana Taila is one such combination that possesses the above principle & so; it can be effective in Malavastambha.

Aim: This case study is primarily carried out to study the role of oral administration of Chincha Lavana Taila in Malavashtambha

Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of oral consumption of Chincha Lavana Taila in Malavastambha.
