Abstract
The disease Yoshaapasmara is commonly found in females described in Madhava Nidana Parishista, Bhaishjya Ratnawali etc. In modern psychiatry it is known as hysterical neurosis (HN) which is now described as “conversion and dissociative disorder.” Although presently there are no definitive etiopathogenesis, clinical manifestation and management but Ayurveda has described many herbal and herbo-mineral formulations for management of the same. “Sarpagandha Churna Yoga” is one of them. Total thirteen patient of hysterical neurosis were selected and given the trial drug in the form of capsule with milk. Effect of trial drug was assessed on the basis of symptomatic improvement in symptoms and psychometric assessment was done by two scales namely Middlesex Hospital Questionnaire (by O. N. Srivastava & V. K. Bhatt) and Adjustment Scale (By R.R.Tripathi). After three month of treatment it was found that the trial drug is very effective for the management of Yshaapasmara vis –a-vis Hysterical Neurosis.
