Brief Summary   Indian population with type 2 diabetes has a high burden (76.6%) of poor glycemic control. In Ayurveda Diabetes mellitus is compared with Madhumeha and classified under Vataja Prameha. Abhraka is a wonder drug described under Rasashastra branch with predominant Rasayana and Yogavahi properties. Abhraka is mostly prescribed in the form of Bhasma after several processing steps like Shodhana, Dhanyabhraka Nirmana, Marana, Amrutikarana etc. Amrutikarana is a special procedure to eliminate all remaining Doshas from the prepared Bhasma without impairing the therapeutic efficacy of the end product. Since no previous research works has been found for the revalidation of this fact in therapeutic efficacy of Abhraka Bhasma in diabetes, hence present research work is an effort to establish a link between the effect of Amrutikarana and therapeutic efficacy of Abhraka Bhasma in Madhumeha. Abhraka Bhasma will be prepared by 60 cycles of incineration and then Amrutikarana will be carried out in one group. Then clinical study will be carried out in type 2 diabetes (Madhumeha) patients.
Treatment group 1: 1 Tablet (187.5 mg Abhraka Bhasma prepared with  Amrutikarana and 62.5 mg Triphala Ghana) twice daily 
Treatment group 2: 1 Tablet (187.5 mg Abhraka Bhasma prepared without  Amrutikarana and 62.5 mg Triphala Ghana) twice daily 
Dose: 187.5 mg BD
Adjuvant: Water in sufficient quantity
Time of administration: 15 min before meal
Study duration: 8 weeks 
Follow up: 4 weeks
Concurrent medications or treatments for diabetes: Patients on continued medication from any medical system will be allowed to continue their medications during the treatment and follow up period (except insulin). The research drug will be on addon basis during the treatment period. If patient has no previous drug history, he/she will receive the research drug only.
