Asavarishtas are formulations of Ayurveda which contain natural self-generated alcohol and can be  preserved for longer time. Vasakarishta, Ashokarishta, Balarishta, Arjunarishta, Ashwagandharishta,  Vidangarishta, and Khadirarishta are few Asavarishta preparations which are commonly used in  general clinical practice. Usheerasava is one such preparation which is given in Paittika disorders. It  is usually given in Raktapitta, Constipation, Menorrhagia, Metrorrhagia, Poly-menorrhea, Guda Gata  Raktapitta, Hemorrhoids, Nasagata Raktapitta, Pleeha Vriddhi, and skin disorders. It contains Sheeta  Virya (cold) drugs like Usheera, Chandana, Kumuda and Kamala which pacifies vitiated pitta in the  body and relieves Pittaja disorders. The present paper highlights about the clinical indications of  Usheerasava in an experiential and scientific view.
