*Rajpoot Purnima, Chandrakar Smriti, Verma Sudha Rani and Singh Balendra
ABSTRACT Mutrashmari (Urolithiasis) is one of the most common diseases of Mutravaha Srotas that occurs due to disequilibrium between stone promoting and inhibiting factors in urinary system. As Mutrashmari is kapha pradhana tridoshaja vyadhi & Paneeya Kshara is indicated in the same by Acharya Sushruta. Hence, it as hypothesized that oral use of Kalyana Kshara, mentioned by Ashtanga Hridaya, may be beneficial in treating Mutrashmari. This case study shows that Kalyana Kshara is effective in the management of Mutrashmari along with strict Pathya- Apathya sevana (Dietary regimen) and alteration in the life-style in context of expulsion of Ashmari. It possesses Lekhana (Scrapping), Bhedana (Disintegration), Vatanulomana, Vatashamaka (Analgesic), Mootrala (Diuretic) and Ashmari-bhedana (Lithotriptic) properties. As per Ayurvedic treatise, Kshara is Tridoshaghna in nature playing key role in the Samprapti- Vighatana in the pathogenesis of Mutrashmari.
