A COMPARATIVE STUDY AND PHARMACOLOGICAL INTERPRETATION OF CALCIUM COMPOUNDS VIS-À-VIS SHUKLA VARGA
Keywords:
Calcium Compounds, Shukla Varga, Rasarnava, RasratnakarAbstract
Classical texts like Charaka, Sushruta and Vagbhata have used the calcium compounds in
many diseases but they didn’t classify them in a single group. Rasarnavakar & Rasaratnakar
have classified them in Shukla varga. After 16th century other Rasa texts also mentioned
separate group for Ca-compounds. In Tamilnadu ,it is found that Siddha Vaidya use scalp
bone for Unmada & Apasmar and Pelvic bone for leucorrhoea proving our principle
“Vruddhi: Samane: Sarvesham”. In Kerala use of Mrigshring Bhasma along with Kaddali
Rasayana for leucorrhoea is quite common. Paper deals with comparative study of Calcium
Compounds between Modern pharmacology and Ayurveda pharmacology and proving
superiority of Ayurvedic method of preparation.
