ABSTRACT
Amlapitta is more common in the present scenario. The main reason for the
Amalapitta is viruddha ahara, spicy food and other environmental factor are also responsible.
According to yogratnakar the Vamana karma is indicated in Urdhwaga Amalpitta. Even
Vamana is part of Panchakarma treatment. In this study we have attempted to show an
importance of Sodhanaga Snehapana prior to Vamana karma. A case of 46 yr old female
patient presented with classical symptoms of Urdhvaga Amlapitta like amlodgara (acid
eructation), urodaha (burning in chest), shirashoola (headache), amala-tikta vanti (acidic
vomitus), kukshi daha (burning in stomach) since 1 month visited to Parul Ayurveda
Hospital, Parul University, waghodia Gujarat, referred to Panchakarma OPD. Patient was
Managed As per the classical reference, protocol started with Deepana -Pachana &
shodhananga snehapana with Murchitta Go-Ghrita in increasing dose till samayak snigdha
lakshana. As Vamaka yoga the madanphala pippali churna 6 gm, saindhva 2 gm, honeysufficient quantity and yashtimadhu phanta as vamananopaga dravya were used. It was
observed that Amlodgar, Shirashoola, Tikta Amla Vanti, Urodaha symptoms of Amlapitta
have been reduced and patient felt complete relief; there was no recurrence of Amalapitta
even after 2 months. Thus, Murchitta Go Ghrita as Shodhnaga Snehapana and Vamana
karma in patient of Urdhwanga Amalapitta is effective.
