简要总结
Vatarakta is the major example of vata vyadhi, caused due to Avarana pathology. It is a disease which is associated with an inheretent abnormality of purine metabolism resulting in over production of uric acid. It is characterized by acute attack pain and swelling of one or more joints. In untreated cases uric acid in the form of monosodium urate gets deposited in the cartilage of joints and later on it causes deformities. The literature enlists a number of Guggulu prayogas in the management of vatarakta. An additional cavernous revise was indispensable to bring out the precise outcome of these products.Keeping these visions in mind, the particular comparative study was performed with Gokshuradi Guggulu and Nimbadi Churna which are explained in the same context, Aim and object of this study is to evaluate their therapeutic efficacy in the patients of Vatarakta ( Gout) along with safety measures by observing adverse events ( AE) if any or Adverse drug reaction ( ADR). The efficacy of these drugs would be assessed by observing the improvement in Subjective parameters ( Clinical symptoms), mean percentage decrease in serum uric acid levels, improvement in SF-36 Health survey score, patients global assessment, physicians global assessment, pain VAS scale and lab parameters.
