Journal Title: International Journal of Ayurveda and Pharmaceutical Chemistry - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
Rapid impact of westernisation, industrialization and stressful lifestyle in the present era, has lead to a considerable increase in the incidence of lifestyle and behavioural diseases. Dyslipidemia is one of the burning topics in today’s era. Lipid and lipoprotein abnormalities are extremely common in general population. Dyslipidemia is one such disorder which is identified as a potential risk factor for multitudes of diseases like CVD, metabolic syndrome and even HTN. The prevalence of Dyslipidemia is very high in India also, which calls for early and effective intervention strategies to prevent and manage this important risk factor. Because of its high prevalence I have selected this topic entitled “A Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Mustadi Kwath in Dyslipidemia vis-à-vis Medodushti”. In Ayurveda, it can be better correlated with Medodushti which is a functional condition and just a precursor stage of Medoroga and can be easily reversible by effective regimen. This study was carried out in OPD and IPD patients of Kayachikitsa department of Rishikul Campus, Haridwar for 90 days. A total of 20 patients were registered for the trial and randomly treated with Mustadi kwath. All the concerned approvals were obtained and data was analyzed by using statistical parameters. There was significant result of Mustadi Kwath, found on lipid profile parameters and blood sugar fasting. So it can be a drug of choice in Dyslipidemia in both Diabetic and Non-Diabetic patients. The present research also proved that there is major role of Agni and Ama in pathogenesis of Dyslipidemia, and all the drugs having Lekhaniya, Dipana, Amapachaka, Kapha-Medohara, Rasayana and Srotoshodhaka qualities will be highly effective.
