Brief Summary   Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common progressive disease that is characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation that is due to airway and/or alveoli abnormalities usually caused by exposure to noxious particles or gases and influenced by host factors including abnormal lung development.
According to Ayurveda, respiratory diseases can be corelated with Pranavaha strotas vikara where cough, breathing difficulties, disturbed respiratory pattern etc. are the main clinical features. Though it is impossible to correlate COPD with any single disease of Pranavaha stroto dushti, but advanced conditions of diseases such as Kasa and Shwasa may result in the conditions which  resembles with COPD.
Kanakasava is a potent anti-asthmatic polyherbal formulation mentioned in Bhaishajya Ratnavali in Hikka/Shwasa Rogadhikara. Kanakasava aqueous solution will be made through simple distillation method of drug extraction. This solution will be administered with the help of nebulizer - a delivery device used to administer medication in the form of a mist inhaled directly in to the lungs and its effectiveness in the form of nebulizer solution will be seen in the management of COPD.
