Brief Summary  

A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED CLINICAL TRIAL TO EVALUATE THE ROLE OF JYOTISHMATI TAILA IN THE MANAGEMENT OF SIDHMA KUSHTA VIS-À-VIS PITYRIASIS VERSICOLOR

Jyotishmati taila is one of the classical preparation mentionedin Ashtanga Hridaya for Sidhma kushta. It contains alkaline water of Apamarga (Achyranthes aspera) and oil extracted seeds of Celastrus paniculatus. Various studies shows that this oil is having antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal and hypolipidemic  properties and found highly significant in tissue epithlialization. The oil in combination with Apamarga Kshara is known to have Kapha hara action and Sidhma nashaka. But the efficacy of the formulation is not documented. Hence effort has been made to evaluate the efficacy of topical application of Jyotishmati Taila in the management of Sidhma kushta.

In this study 40 subjects, 20 in each group will be selected as per inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Group A (study group) - 20 subjects will be subjected to external application of Jyotishmati taila over the affected part and retained for minimum 30 minutes Dose: Twice daily (Morning and Night) q.s to cover affected site Duration: 30 days.

Group B (control group) - 20 subjects will be subjected to external application of Gandakadi lepa over the affected part and retained for minimum 30 minutes Dose: Twice daily (Morning and Night) q.s to cover affected site Duration: 30 days.

Treatment period: 30 days (Clinical assessment will be done on 15thand 30th day of treatment)

 Follow up Period:  Will be on 45th & 60th day of the treatment.
