Ayurveda refers to Bronchial Asthma as Tamaka shwasa. Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways. In which the chronic inflammation causes an associated increase in airway hyper responsiveness that leads to recurrent episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness and coughing, particularly at night or in the early morning.

In modern medicine management of Asthma is done by Bronchodilators and corticosteroids controlling it but leading to dependency on allopathic drugs increasing its severity along with other side effects also.With the help of Ayueveda if we can control attacks of Shwasa and decrease dose of other medicine it will be very useful to society.

 According to Acharya Charaka the medicaments, foods and drink which control both Vayu and Kapha and having Ushna and Vatanulomana property should be given in Tamaka shwasa. Therefore Amrutadi vati was taken from Chakradatta Hikka Shwasa chikitsa prakranam which contains Guduchi, Nagarmotha, Bharangi, Kantakari, Tulsi, Pippali. This yoga has kapha, vatashamaka property by katu, tikta rasa and ushna virya. Vasadi vati was taken from Yogratnakar shwasa chikitsa adhyay, which contains Vasa, Haridra, Dhanyak, Guduchi, Bharangi, Pippali, Sunthi, Kantakari, Marich. This yoga has kaphashamaka property by katu tikta rasa and vatashamaka property by ushna virya.

Total 75 patients were registered among them in Group A Amrutadi vati group total 41 patients were registered out of which 36 patients completed the treatment and 05 discontinued.
