DISCUSSION
The proper combination of drugs with prior knowledge about
their properties & actions can convert a poison into a best
medicament but if the drugs are combined hapazardly & used
improperly then even most potent drug can become poision &
ruin health. So, Shoditha Bhallataka can be used in different
combination in different Kalpanas according to Yukti. In
combination of different drugs to this Bhallataka and
Administered in Different dosage forms have action in various
conditions like Tvak vikara, Pitta Roga, Yakrit vikara, and
externally like Nadivrana etc.. Since bhallataka is harmful,
precautions should be taken during processing of it .Even
though Bhallataka is corrosive in action it is useful as
Rasayana due to its Madhura vipaka. It is mainly indicated in
Kustha, Arsha Its oil extract is used in treating different skin
diseases. Antiinflamatory, Antimicrobial, anticancer, and
Neuro protective property has been proved through research.
CONCLUSION
Classical references of Ayurveda have many medicinal herbs
indicated in different Diseases in which Bhallataka is one used
with a combination of medicines to prepare formulations.
From Wide data this paper gives information from Certain
different Classical books to evaluate the Main Indications of
Bhallataka. To conclude the data shows Bhallataka yogas are
mainly indicated in Twak vikara, Pittaja roga.
