Abstract

The incidence of Upper respiratory tract infection is very high in India and very common problem related to that is Bhrushakshava or allergic rhinitis. In modern medical science, anti-histaminics, decongestants, and local steroid are available. But these drugs can help in the initial stage. The modern medical treatment modalities for allergic rhinitis are expensive and not free from side effects. Moreover, no effective drug for allergy is available in the modern science. Hence, we felt the need to derive a treatment protocol that would help in to relive the symptoms, remove the pathology and promote immunity. The main treatment for Bhrushakshava is Nasya. So Shunthyadi tail Nasya, which is best among all the Nasya was selected.
