Brief Summary  

Over the past couple of decades, it has become increasingly clear that nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) are the significant causes of liver disease. NAFLD is now the most prevalent form of chronic liver disease, affecting 20%–30% of the general population.NAFLD is a leding cause of liver disease worldwide. The estimated global incidence of NAFLD is 47 cases per 1,000 population and is higher among males(40%) than females(32%) Within the next 10 years, it is expected to become the leading cause of liver pathology, liver failure, and indication for liver transplantation.  The prevalence of fatty liver disease in India is found to be as high as 24%,which is similar to that reported in some of the Western countries, where it correlates with the prevalence of obesity. Starting from a simple steatosis, NAFLD can proceed to steatohepatitis and fibrosis. Cirrhosis and/or hepatic carcinoma can be its terminal complication.


The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of Rohitakadi vati and Pippali vati orally after virechana in patients of Non alcoholic fatty liver disease. 200 subjects satisfying diagnosis and inclusion criteria will be divided in to 2 groups of 100 subjects each, Intervention will be given for 8 weeks. Post 8 weeks of intervention, the subjects will be assessed for changes in their symptoms, BMI, USG abdomen and also their quality of life will be assessed based on chronic liver disease questionnaire.
