Abstract

Micro-organisms namely Bacteria, viruses, fungi, worms etc. are present everywhere. The fact that these Micro-organisms can cause certain diseases to human beings was known to Ayurveda even in ancient eras. They even describe the methods to destroy these Microorganisms and prevent infection caused by them. However modern science has made tremendous progress in this area and acquired deep knowledge about Micro-organisms. But still infections caused by these, still ranks very high as a cause of death in the world. Even though there are number of Antibiotics present and new are being developed, the Micro-organisms are developing resistance towards these Antibiotics, hence there is need to find out a better medicine which can contradict all the Micro-organisms. Hence in present study Bhairav Rasa, a herbomineral preparation has been selected which fall Under Kharaleeya Rasayana. It is indicated in Karanrogas, Sannipataj jwara, Agnimandya, Grahani vikaras and Shotha.

Keywords: Bhairav Rasa, Micro-organisms, Kharleeya Rasayana.
