Brief Summary  

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a common systemic autoimmune disease that 1% of the world’s population is suffering from it. Epidemiological surveys by WHO –COPCORD(WHO community oriented program for control of rheumatoid disease) shows a prevalence of 0.45% in urban India and 0.7%in rural population, The disease, in addition to reducing the average life expectancy of patients, is associated with significant morbidity. So that 50% of RA patients are not able to continue their jobs after ten years of illness .

In Ayurveda commonly used in all the diseases is Samshodhana and Shamana. Samshodhana indicates the Dosha eliminating process, Whereas Shaman brings into equilibrium the aggravated Doshas in the body. Each type of procedure is having its equal importance in their respective way.

In modern medical science with extreme advancement in diagnostic approach, It is a challenging disease for the physicians and medical field. Disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) are standard medication for RA patients, methotrexate is one of the commonly used drug to suppress autoimmune response but its side effects is notorious

Amavata is one of the devastating diseases that cause permanent disability. The condition is named for its two main pathogenic components, Ama and Vata. these two factors simultaneously take part in theSamprapti making it difficult to treat. According to samprapti wherever this Ama gets localized in the body tissue or joints, it can lead to production of pain, stiffness, swelling, tenderness in related joints.[8] It is not just a problem of the locomotor system; it is also a systemic disease.
