One of the specialities of Ayurveda is the rasayana karma mentioned in it. Diseases like Pandu are not only caused by some dietary causes but it is majorly impacted by the person’s nutrition hence while treating Pandu, only the disease curing (Vyadhi pratyanik chikitsa) strategy does not help but supplemental help (Rasayana Chikitsa) to prolong its effect is also very much necessary. Hence here in case of Pandu Vidangadi loha can be used to treat the basic cause of the disease but to get better results in the management of the disease subject will be given supplemental meaning Rasayan vidhi to prolong its effect. And Pippali’s rasayana karma can be studied through this in Pandu. Vardhaman Pippali Rasayana is explained by Sharangdhar in his texts in Madhyam khanda, as useful in treating Pandu Vyadhi by its Rasayana, Deepana & Pachana, Raktvardhak, Raktashodhak property. It is also mentioned in Charak Samhita for the same. Hence, this is an attempt to evaluate the efficacy of Vardhaman Pippali Rasayana on the basis of subjective and objective parameters.
