Note: Stem bark of the ingredients number 1 to 5 of the formulation composition has been used
in place of the root.
Method of preparation:
Take all the ingredients of pharmacopoeial quality.
Wash, dry, powder the ingredients numbered 1 to 36 (Kvātha Dravya) of the formulation
composition and pass through sieve number 44.
Wash, dry, powder the ingredients numbered 43 to 48 (Prak¾epa) and pass through sieve
number 85. Add sufficient amount of water to the Kvātha dravya.
Take 5 kg of fresh fruits of Āmalak¤, wash and tie them into a bundle using a muslin cloth. Immerse
the bundle into the Kvātha vessel, heat and remove the bundle from the vessel when Āmalak¤
becomes soft. Continue to boiling till water reduces to one fourth and filter the decoction
through a muslin cloth. Keep the filtrate safe for use in the formulation.
Prepare Āmalak¤ pi¾°ī by removing the fibers and seeds by rubbing through a piece of cloth.
Fry the pi¾°ī with Gh¨ta and Taila mixed in equal proportions. Properly fried pi¾°ī would
release the Gh¨ta and Taila.
Add Śarkarā to the filtered kvātha, also add fried pi¾°ī and boil to Leha pāka. The final stage of Leha
pāka is assessed by putting 2 to 3 g in a glass of water at room temperature. It will settle down
in the water and will not disperse at least for 5 to 10 min. Then remove the vessel from fire and
allow to cool at 500.
Add prak¾epa Dravya and mix thoroughly to prepare a homogeneous blend. On cooling at room
temperatures add Madhu.
Pack it in tightly closed containers to protect from light and moisture.
