REVIEW ON THE ANTI-MICROBIAL POTENTIAL OF DASHANGA AGADA Authors: Jadhav KM , SAVALAGIMATH MP* AND PATIL SF
ABSTRACT
Background: Very few studies on Dashanga Agada have been performed, but those that have
been done have exhibited antibacterial action in vitro experiments, anti-inflammatory activity
in scorpion sting envenomation and carrageen-induced paw edema, and analgesic activity in
histamine-induced acute inflammation. Based on previously published scientific articles, this
report provides an overview of the anti-microbial activities of the Dashanga Agada and its
component drugs. Methodology: Information is gathered from websites like Google Scholar,
Research Gate, PubMed, and Scopus. Studies that have demonstrated mild to significant
antimicrobial effects are taken into consideration, and those that have not demonstrated any
activity are omitted. Result: There were more than 70 publications available on the
antibacterial activity of individual drugs, and of those, 26 revealed mild to significant
antimicrobial activity. Discussion: The situations that result from our screening of bite and
sting instances eventually lead to one type of infection or another, thus Krimigna property is
required to combat that. In the above-mentioned formulation majority of the drugs were found
Krimigna in nature and known to have antimicrobial effects.
