subjectAbstract

Fermented Medicines can be considered as a unique approach of Ayurveda which facilitates easier and qualitative absorption of medications. Several references regarding Sandhana Kriya (fermentation techniques) and their dravyas are depicted in Ayurveda literatures. Sharangadhara Samhitha is mainly considered for practical references Sandhana formulations now a days. Sandhana Varga by Bhavaprakasha Nigantu emphasizes more Dravyaguna aspects of using Sandhana drugs. As those references seems underutilized, thorough review on Sandhana Varga of Bhavaprakasha Nigantu opens new utilities and practical ideas on usage of fermented medicines in Ayurveda.
