Brief Summary   Shigru (Moringa olifera Lam.) is a plant having multitude of uses be it therapeutic or nutraceuticals. The existing treatment protocol for Dadru kushtha (dermatophytosis) consists of various topical and oral steroids, antifungal creams and medication that gives temporary relief which on prolonged consumption causes hepatotoxicity and hormone related effects. Therefore in a recurrent condition like Dadru there is need for safe, efficacious, cost effective management thus a study on shigru is taken.  Acharaya Vangasena depicted in kushtha chikitsa to use Shigru root bark lepa as an effective remedy in Dadru kushtha. As the use of root bark may lead to the destruction of plant, it needs to be replaced by another part if possible. Hence considering similar activity in stem bark, this study emphasizes on the comparative analysis and clinical efficacy of stem bark lepa  with that of root bark lepa.
