A PHARMACEUTICO-ANALYTICAL EVALUATION OF DWIBHUJA RASA

In contemporary times, Rasaushadhis are increasingly becoming the drug of choice for effectively managing chronic ailments, reflecting their importance and potential in modern healthcare. Rasa preparations are tasteless, adequate in small doses, fast-acting, and have a long shelf life, making them easy to handle and highly valuable in therapeutic applications. Here is a pharmaceutical-analytical evaluation of Dwibhuja Rasa, explained in Rasayogasagara which indicates Navajwara. To date, no scientific studies have been carried out on this formulation. Suddha Hingula and Jayapala are given Mardana in Jambeera Swarasa for time duration and made into pills. The final formulation was bright red and in fine powder form, which was later rolled into pills using Nimbu Swarasa. The pills had a spicy taste, croton-like smell, and smooth texture, producing no sound when touched. Physico-chemical parameters, along with instrumental analysis results, supported its potential antipyretic activity.
