Brief Summary   Studies have been conducted to manage dyslipidaemia through Panchakarma procedures involving Snehapana and Virechanakarma. Lipid profile regulation noted in the studies. The studies involved gradual increase of snehapana dose as per the agni. In Vangasena Samhita we get reference of fixed increase of snehapana dose not involving agni assessment. The present study is planned to compare these two modes of snehapana with Murchita tila taila and Varunadi ghrita followed by Virechana in dyslipidaemia

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
1.Primary objective
a.To assess the effect of Arohana krama of Snehapana with Murchita tila taila followed by Virechana in dyslipidaemia
b.To assess the effect of fixed dose of Arohana krama Snehapana with Murchita tila taila followed by Virechana in dyslipidaemia
c.To assess the effect of Arohana krama of Snehapana with Varunadi ghrita followed by Virechana in dyslipidaemia
d.To assess the effect of fixed dose of Arohana krama Snehapana with Varunadi ghrita followed by Virechana in dyslipidaemia
2.Secondary objective
a.To assess the Samyak snigdha lakshanas
b.To assess the Samyak Virikta Lakshanas
c.To study the changes in biochemical parameters
d.To compare between the groups
