Description
Summary:Introduction: Allergic rhinitis (AR) is the most common disease among children which is mentioned in Ayurveda as “Pratishyaya”. This manifests when the Kapha, Rakta, and Pitta migrate from the root of the Nasa Pradesha and get stuck in Shirapradesha which is already vitiated by the Vata Dosha. There are five types of Pratishyaya described in the Ayurveda textbook, out of which Vataj Pratishyaya can be correlated with AR. Methods: Eighty-two children suffering from Vataj Pratishyaya were randomly selected and divided into four groups, namely Group A was treated with Compound A (syrup Trayodashanga Kashaya), Group B was treated with Compound A (syrup Trayodashanga Kashaya) and Anu Taila Nasya, Group C were treated with Compound A-1 (syrup Vyaghradi Kashaya), while Group D was treated with Compound A-1 (syrup Vyaghradi Kashaya) and Anu Taila Nasya. A total of 60 children completed the treatment, 15 in each group. Result: Group B showed extremely significant results in relieving signs and symptoms of Vataj Pratishyaya in comparison to Group A, C, and D. Conclusion: All four groups showed extremely significant results in subjective parameters while no changes were seen in objective parameters.
