Abstract
In Ayurveda, all skin diseases have classified mainly into two groups i.e., Mahakushtha (major skin diseases) and Kshudrakushtha (minor skin diseases). Tuvaraka [Hydnocarpus laurifolia (Dessnt).Sleumer] is one among the most useful drugs for the treatment of Kushtha (Various skin diseases) and Madhumeha (Diabetes Melitus). Pama is described under Kshudra Kushtha. which can be correlates with scabies. Aim: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Tuvaraka oil prepared by modified method and Tuvaraka oil prepared by classical method (Pidana method) in Pama (scabies). Methods: In this open labelled parallel arm randomized clinical trial, total 34 selected patients were randomly divided into two groups using computer generated randomization in which total 30 patients were completed the treatment with the dose (external application of BID with placebo 2 Capsules of 500 mg 2 time per day after meal) schedule of external application with duration of 4 weeks. The assessment was done based on the symptoms of the disease. Results: Tuvaraka oil prepared by classical method (Pidana method) and Tuvaraka oil prepared by modified method had a considerable reduction in subjective parameters. Comparison of both the groups indicates, non-significant result observed in Kandu (Itching) and Anukabhi Pidika (Small burrow), while significant result was observed in Paridaha (Burning around). Conclusion: Tuvaraka oil prepared by classical method (Pidana method) is more effective in compare to Tuvaraka oil prepared by modified method in the management of Pama
