Panchkoladi ghritaAbstract
Kshirap awastha is described by Sushruta, which means the age from birth up to 1 year of life. The infants? The diet is predominantly mother's milk i. e. breastfeeding. According to modern science as well, the infant is exclusively breastfed during the first six months of life. After the first six months, the diet mainly comprises of milk and milk-based preparations. Hence, we come across many children with vomiting after feeding or stanpanottar chardi in this age group. For the treatment of stanpanottar Chardi, the formulation that has been used is Panchkoladi Ghrita. This treatment is mentioned by Vaghbata, it has also been mentioned in Balrogadhikar of Bhaishjyaratnavali. The drug, being in ghrita form, seems to be well tolerated by the infants, and Panchkol has digestive properties as well as some of its contents have antiemetic properties. It helps regulating gastric motility.
