Description
KALI TULSI KADHA is a combination of herbs acting on the
respiratory tract and rectifying the abnormalities of the
digestive system, since impairment of the digestive system is
considered to be responsible for various types of cough.
Several herbs like the leaves of the vasa plant contain the
alkaloid vasicine (C11H12N2O), which is responsible for the small
but persistent bronchodilatation, and an essential oil which is
chiefly responsible for the expectorant action. The leaves and
roots contain other alkaloids, vasicinone, vasicinolone and
vasicol, which may contribute to the bronchodilatory effect
through anticholinergic action on the vagal innervation of the
bronchii. The bronchodilation effect is considerably increased
after atropine administration. Studies have also shown vasa to be
effective in the treatment of amlapitta (dyspepsia) and pyorrhea.
The in vitro growth of several strains of Mycoplasma tuberculosis
was inhibited by the essential oil at concentrations in the range
of 2-20 ug/ml.There has also been a report of thrombopoetic
(platelet-increasing) activity with vasicine.
Kantkari (Solanum Xantho-carpum) is one of the members of the
dasamula (ten root) of the Ayurveda. It is a very spiny diffuse
herb up to 1.2 m tall, commonly found throughout India. The juice
of berries is used in sore throat. Roots and seeds are
administered as an expectorant in asthma and cough and pain in
chest. Stem flowers and fruits are bitter and carminative and are
prescribed for relief in burning sensation in the feet. Leaves are
applied locally to relieve pain.
Yastimadhu is useful for many respiratory disorders as well as
cough. Yastimadhu helps to increase the appetite by facilitating
proper evacuation of stools. This herb has a special action on
kapha, which helps in expectoration of the accumulated kapha.It is
mainly used as an expectorant and antitussive agent. It has shown
