A critical analysis of Shonitasthapana varga dravyas based on literature review of classical texts commentators research works etc. revealed varied actions of the dravyas which can be categorized into raktavardhana raktaprasadana and raktasthambana karmas. The group includes sthavara five drugs jangama one drug oudbida two drugs and ahara dravyas two dravyas which add to the uniqueness of being used as oushada as well as pathya. The judicious use of these dravyas after ascertaining their qualities and pharmacological activities offer a wide scope for utility of these drugs in various hematological disorders. |
