VYAGHRIHARITAKI AVALEHA Vyaghriharitaki Avaleha (VHA) is a purely herbal product used commonly for
the management of various diseases of respiratory system.1 The term Vyaghriharitaki
Avaleha is named so because it contains Vyaghri and Haritaki as two major
ingredients. Maharshi Bhrigu told this formulation by the name of Vyaghriharitaki
Avaleha.

Vyaghriharitaki avaleha is a purely herbal product for the management of
various diseases of respiratory system like Shwasa (bronchial asthma), Kasa (cough),
Kaphaja Kasa (bronchitis)3
, Peenasa (Chronic rhinitis), Pratishyaya (Coryza),
Svarakshaya (aphasia), Rajayakshma (Tuberculosis) etc. It is an Avaleha dosage form
prepared with guda (jaggery) as the sweetening agent. As per the classical references
it is told that Haritaki fruit should be 100 numbers 4
for the said quantities of the other
ingredients of the formulation. Haritaki fruits should be tied in cotton cloth (pottali)
and boiled along with Kantakari (Solanum xanthocarpum Schrad. & Wendl.) to

prepare the kwatha (decoction).5 The well cooked Haritaki fruits are then taken out of
the pottali and the seeds are removed to collect the pulp of the fruit. After collecting
the pulp of the fruit, it is ground well to make fine paste of it. Then the avaleha should
be prepared till the siddha lakshanas are observed following the principles of Avaleha
Kalpana. Then fine powders of prakshepa dravyas are added after self cooling and
stirred thoroughly to get a homogeneous mixture. Finally madhu (honey) should be
added and mixed.The pharmaceutical procedure mentioned in classical Ayuvedic text
Chakradatta6 and API (Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia of India)
7 are same.
HISTORICAL REVIEW:
This formulation has been mentioned in many of the Ayurvedic classical texts.

PHARMACOLOGICAL ACTION OF INGREDIENTS OF YAGHRIHARITAKI
Drug review
Efficacy of Vyaghriharitaki Avaleha on Chronic Bronchitis Page 32
Kantakari:
Reported study on S. xanthocarpum further confirms the traditional use of S.
xanthocarpum as a popular complementary medicine to relieve cough and bronchial
asthma.51
Immunostimulatory activity of aqueous extract of S. xanthocarpum fruits on
mice gives strong evidence that the plant is an immunostimulating agent. 52
Toxicity studies on rats have shown that the hot water extract of the drug
could be toxic at 200 mg / kg dose. But no clinical data to highlight any toxicity on
humans are available. 53
Haritaki:
T. chebula is having immunomodulatory activity.54 It exhibited antispasmodic
action on smooth muscle similar to that of the papavarine. Haritaki shows
hypolipidemic action on rats.55
Hydrolyzable tannins are available in T. chebulla
which shows antimutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium.56
Aqueous extract of T.
chebula shows anticaries agent.57
Terminalia chebulla shows cytoprotective effect
same as Asparagus racemosus on gastric mucosa and also effective in stable angina.58
LD50 of chebulin is reported to be 550 mg/kg in mice. 59
Sunthi:
Ginger and its constituents act as digestive aids; possess antiulcer, cholagogic
and antiemetic properties and increase gastrointestinal motility which may be due to
the antiserotoninergic activity of the drug. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis by the
constituents of ginger is thought to play a role in the inflammatory activity exhibited
by the drug. Ginger is also known to possess hypolipidaemic / antiatherosclerotic,
antidiabetic and cardiotonic properties. In clinical trials, ginger seems to be of use in
treating motion sickness and rheumatic dissorders.60
Maricha:
Acid secretion in anesthetized albino rats is highly influenced by intragastric
perfusion of aqueous extract of Maricha,61
it also shows hypoglycemic effect
experimentally, it is also used in gonorrhoea and antidotal activity against snake
poison; Piperine inhibits aflatoxin B-induced cytotoxicity and genotoxicity in Chinese
hamster cells genetically engineered to express rat cytochrome P4502B1.62,63
Pippali:

The immunoregulatory potential of P. longum and piperinic acid, one of its
active constituent, in Balb/C mice (in vivo) and human PBMCs (in vitro) models
showed a dose dependent decrease of lymphocytes (CD4+ and CD8+ T cells) and
cytokine levels in sensitized Balb/C mice with a marked inhibition64
. Alcoholic
extract of the fruits of P. longum and its component piperine was studied for their
immunomodulatory and antitumor activity.Alcoholic extract of the fruits and piperine
were found to be cytotoxic.65
Anti allergic and anti asthmatic activities of the fruit are well known. The oil
of fruit has been found to possess significant paralytic action on the nerve muscle
preparation of A. lumbricoides. The hepatoprotective effect has been shown in CCl4
induced liver damage in rats as well as humans. It's also helpful in chronic malaria.
Antifertility and antiamoebic effect of the fruit of P. longum in female rats has been
observed. The fruits as well as root work as an analgesic when applied locally; as a
sedative, as a cholagogue, as an immunagogue, abortificient, as an anthelmentic and
as a carminative. Alcoholic extracts of the dry fruits and aqueous extracts of the
leaves showed activity against micrococus pyogens var. aureus and E. coli. Either
extracts of the fruit have been shown to possess larvicidal properties.66
LD50 value of Piperine in mice is 750-800 mg/kg. P.O. 67
Twak:
Cinnamon bark shows inhibitory action to the bacteria with endotoxin derived
from it.68
Twak shows antimicrobial effect on growth of yersinia enterocolitica.69
Aqueous & chloroform extracts of plant, when given during pregnancy, a non-
significant no. of abnormalities was observed in live fetuses, the same occurring with
fetal weight & no. of dead foetuses. 70
Ela:
Ela shows pharmacological actions like hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory,
analgesic, antispasmodic, antimicrobial, anti fungul etc. 71
Tamal patra:
Hypoglycaemic activity in patients of maturity onset (Insulin dependent)
diabetes72
and hypolipidemic activity of C. Tamala has been reported.73
The essential
Drug review

oil shows effectiveness against dermatophytes and fungicidal activity againt Fusarium
moniliforme.
The LD50 oral toxicity of C. tamala oil is 5.36 ml/kg in mice. 74
Nagkesara:
Mesuol & measuone two phytoconstituent of Nagkeshara, showed antibiotic
activity, mesuol was more active than mesuone against Mycobacterium phlei.75
Ethanolic extract of whole plant excluding root showed antibacterial activity.
Other pharmacological activities reported are: antifungal, anthelmintic,
hypotensive, antispasmodic, antianaphylactic, antiasthamatic, antiimplantation, anti-
inflammatory juvenominetic, insecticidal etc.
The LD50 of ether extract of whole plant in mice is 500mg/kg IP, LD50 of
acetone extract of stamens in mice was 400 mg/kg iv & non toxic up to 1600 mg/kg
P.O. 76

REVIEW OF PREVIOUS WORKS ON VYAGHRIHARITAKI AVALEHA:
The academic research works done were searched with key words on
Vyaghriharitaki avaleha. Few clinical works have been done on Vyaghriharitaki
avaleha. It has been used and found effective in Kasa77
78
and Tamakshwasa79
. It has
been used in specific subtypes of Kasa like in Vataja Kasa and Kaphaja Kasa. Vataja
Kasa has been correlated with Tropical pulmonary eosinophilia80
while Kaphaja Kasa
has been correlated with the clinical condition Chronic bronchitis81
