Abstract

All Rasa Aushadhi are classified into 4 types according to their method of preparation: 1. Kharaliya Rasayan 2. Parpati Rasayan 3. Kupipakwa Rasayan 4. Pottali Rasayan. Each of these types has a unique method of preparation which renders some unique properties to the formulations. Shweta Parpati, which comes under Parpati Kalpana is indicated for Mutrakrichra which can be symptomatically correlated with Dysuria. Dysuria is pain, discomfort and burning sensation in micturition. Easy method of preparation and very low dose of formulation is an added benefit of this medicine. This article aims to prepare Shweta Parpati as per all the available references- Siddha Yog Sangraha, Siddha Bhaishajya Manimala and Rasoddhar Tantra.
