Amlapitta is a very common disease encountering in present era with more or less severity. It is the one that which bears the direct impact of the dietic errors that a person indulges. In this rapidly growing world, people neglect healthy food and are attracted towards the junk food, they are changing their diet pattern, meal timings, lifestyle and behavioural pattern. They are becoming more stressful with worry, tensions causing so many disorders which hampers digestion and is causing hyperacidity, gastritis, acid peptic disorders etc. All these disorders can be correlated with Urdhwaga Amlapitta in ayurveda. Modern medicinal systems have proton pump inhibiters, H2 blockers, antacids etc. which are being widely used all over the world, have their own limitations. These medications can not cure the disease permanently and only effective until used regularly, with a very high rate of relapse on leaving the medicine. This has encouraged me to assess the effect of commonly used ayurvedic approach, Shamana (Laghusootshekhar Ras and Praval Panchamrut Ras) in the management of Urdhwaga amlapitta. The study material comprises of 15 patients of Urdhwaga Amlapitta from OPD of Kayachikitsa, Ayurved Hospital and Cancer Research Centre, Wagholi having signs and symptoms of the disease as mentioned in classical ayurvedic texts irrespective of sex, religion, occupation etc. Patients were treated with Laghusootshekhar Ras and Praval Panchamrut Ras for 14 days and assessment was made based on patient’s response to the treatment on the basis of improvement in the classical signs and symptoms of Urdhwaga Amlapitta. The results showed that Laghusootshekhar Ras and Praval Panchamrut Ras has significant results in the treatment of Urdhwaga Amlapitta without any ADR.
