Brief Summary   Urai mathirai is a Siddha formulation found in Hospital pharmacopoeia  of Govt siddha medical college Palayamkottai and in use for the past 3 decades. It is observed in Pediatric general practice that Children nursed with Uraimathirai are free from repeated respiratory infection and Uraimathirai is claimed to have Immuno modulating properties. However this Claim is left untested and this PhD study will help to establish the efficacy of the drug comparing with Traditional Siddha formulation Thaleesathy Chooranam 1 gm Bid and Uraimathirai 50 mg daily for continuously for Six months.Before entering into Clinical study Preclinical studies are being carried out to establish the safety and standard of the Drug.
