Brief Summary  

RANDOMIZED COMPARATIVE CLINICAL TRIAL TO EVALUATE THE EFFICACY OF VYADHI SHARDULA GUGGULU ANDSIMHANADA GUGGULU ALONG WITH RASNA DASHAMULA KWATHA IN THE MANAGEMENT OF

 AMAVATA (RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS)
Background: Amavata is a clinical entity vividly described by Madhavakara in 7th Century AD with well-defined aetio-pathogenesis and clinical presentation with specific emphasis Mandagni (reduced digestive fire) and Ama playing the central role and it affects the Rasavaha srotas (channels carrying nutrient fluid). This condition is can be comparable to Rheumatoid Arthritis because of the similar clinical presentation. Amavata is an inflammatory disease involving all the three Doshas embedded with Ama. Amavata develops due to vitiated Vata along with Ama well as Vata dosha. 
NULL HYPOTHESIS (H0)- 
There is no difference in the efficacy of Vyadhi Shardula Guggulu and Simhanada Guggulu along with Rasna Dashamula Kwatha in the management of Amavata (Rheumatoid Arthritis).
ALTERNATE HYPOTHESIS (H1)
There is difference in the efficacy of Vyadhi Shardula Guggulu & Simhanada Guggulu along with Rasna Dashamula Kwatha in the management of Amavata (Rheumatoid Arthritis).
