puerperium. Post-partum hemorrhage (PPH) is a frequent complication of delivery and its reported
incidence in India is 2% – 4% after vaginal delivery and 6% after cesarean section with uterine atony
being the most common cause (50%). Aim- To evaluate the effect of proprietary medicine in sutika
wellbeing wsr to involution of uterus. Objective- To evaluate the effect of Ashotone tablet in uterine
involution rate and abdominal circumference during early puerperium. Materials And Method- The
drug was procured from SDL Private limited. 20 patients were registered for the study based on the
inclusion criteria and were allocated randomly in two groups viz Group A trial group given with
Ashotone tablet and Group B control group without any ayurvedic intervention. Result- The rate of
involution of uterus was observed better in Group A. Discussion- Ashotone having the ingredients like
ashwagandha, haritaki, shatavari are rasayana and balya drugs; ashoka, lodhra, chandana are
garbhashaya shodhaka; sariva, gokshura, pravala pishti, kaseesa bhasma are vata shamaka and balya
