Brief Summary  

The primary objective of this open, randomized, comparative clinical study is to evaluate and compare the efficacy of Dhanyakadi Churna and Panchnimbadi Churna in the management of Urdhwag Amlapitta, a condition in Ayurveda correlating with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), characterized by symptoms such as indigestion, nausea, sour belching, burning sensations in the chest and throat, and fatigue. Rooted in Ayurvedic principles, Urdhwag Amlapitta is believed to arise from the vitiation of Pitta dosha due to lifestyle and dietary factors. This clinical trial includes 62 patients, randomly assigned into two groups (31 each), with both groups receiving their respective churna at a dose of 3 grams twice daily for 21 days, administered with honey. The primary hypothesis posits that both formulations are equally effective in treating Urdhwag Amlapitta, while secondary hypotheses explore whether one treatment demonstrates superior efficacy over the other. The study seeks to provide scientific evidence for the use of these Ayurvedic formulations as viable alternatives to conventional pharmacological treatments.
