Kaphaja Pandu is a type of Pandu where Lakshana of Kapha Dosha is predominant. Pandu is a Pitta Pradhana Vyadhi, in all types of Pandu Pitta Dosha is involved and it is the main contributing factor in Samprapti of Pandu, but according to symptoms of disease it is further divided into Vataja, Pittaja, Kaphaja, Sannipataja and Mridbaksahana Janya Pandu. In case of Kaphaja Pandu, with Pitta, Kapha Dosha also gets involved in producing this particular condition. Here along with ‘Pandu Bhava’ the symptoms like Tandra, Alasya, Gaurava, Praseka, Sweta Varnata of Twak, Mukha and Mutra are seen which indicates Kaphadushti. In general Pandu is compared with Anaemia and diagnosed with less concentration of Hb in blood. Ayurveda has different Chikitsa Sutra/Siddhanta based on dominance of Dosha. Classical text says Katu, Tikta Rasa and Ushna Guna Pradhana Dravya should be used in Kaphaja Vikara. Hence this research is undertaken to study the clinical efficacy of Chikitsa Sutra “Shlaishmike Katu Tiktoshnam” w.s.r to Gomutra Klinna Haritaki in Kaphaja Pandu. In this study Gomutra Klinna Haritaki was administerd to 30 subjects for 30 days, the level of Haemoglobin and changes in Lakshana of Kaphaja Pandu has assessed before and after completion of study.
