Abstract

Hingwashtaka Churna is a polyherbal Ayurvedic formuluation first mentioned  by Ashtanga Hridya in Gulma Chikitsa. Although it is not mentioned in Charak samhita and  Sushruta Samhita, it is a very common, safe and easily available drug in the treatment of  Mandagni related Vikara. It contains Hingu as main and a total number of eight ingredients  along with Trikatu, Jeerakadvaya, Saindhava Lavana and Ajawain. This study critically  analyzes various references of the polyherbal formulation for the appropriate way of  preparation and the samprapti vighatan which Hingwashtaka Churna ensures in treatment of  Vataj Gulma, Vataroga, Agnimandya, Shoola etc.
