ABSTRACT

In Ayurveda Vishas are classified into two types Mahavishas and Upvishas.[1] Out of which Mahavishas are more Tikshna as compared to upvishas. These vishas are more potent because of their gunas like vyavayi, vikasi etc. After shodhan the toxicity of this drugs is reduced and their potency is increased. In the ayurvedic Granthas not only its therapeutic uses but also therapeutic doses are also mentioned, indicating their importance. While treatment everyone tries for safer treatment. During treatment there is ignorance towards such drugs. But such drugs if used after proper Shodhan in proper condition and in proper dose then they can give a magical result which we fail after using our regular drugs.[2] So there is need of creating awareness of such Upvishas for their medicinal use. Here in this study Bhavprakash and few research works are reffered and all the Upvishas are studied in detail and their therapeutic uses are mentioned here.

Keywords: Upvishas, Therapeutic uses, Shodhan, karmas, Bhavprakash.
