Oushnya- vishyandana of doshasanghata
Taikshnya- vicchindana of doshasanghata
Reach amashaya & propelled out by Udana vayu due to Agni, Vayubhoota &
oordhvabhaga prabhava
Mechanism of Action- Vamana
• Central emesis- By stimulating the vomiting centre situated in Medulla
• Reflex emesis- irritation of the gastric mucosa stimulates the Vomiting centre through Vagus and sympathetic pathways
Probably both actions can be seen with the vamanoushadhi
Contd…• Vomiting is coordinated by the brain stem –
effected by neuromuscular responses in the gut, pharynx and thoraco abdominal wall
• Somatic and visceral muscles – stereotypic responses
• Inspiratory thoracic and abdominal wall muscles contract – raised intra thoracic intra abdominal pressure
• Larynx moves up, reduced gastric tone and peristalsis along with increased tone of duodenum – conditions that inhibit gastric emptying, promote vomiting
MECHANISM
• Vagal and sympathetic afferents –bilateral vomiting centre (tractus solitarius near vagus nucleus)
• Automatic motor impulses – Transmitted by 5,7,9,10,12th cranial nerves to upper GIT and through spinal nerves to diaphragm and abdominal muscles
SEQUENTIAL ANALYSIS
• OUSHADA• VEERYA ( SENSORY STIMULI- neuron or vascular
path)• HRIDAYA ( SHIRAS - ? VOMITING CENTER)• SHAREERA DOSHA
VISHYANDANA ,SVEDA,LOMAHARSHA,KUKSHISAMADMAPANA

Classification of purgatives.
• Based on intensity of action: Mild. Moderate. Drastic.
Classification of Purgatives.• Acc. to laxative effect:• Slow onset- those which produce softening of
stool after 1-3 days of daily use- bulk laxatives, mineral oil, lactulose, dioctyl sodium succinate.
• Intermediate onset- those which lead to a soft /semisolid stool in 6-12 hrs of a single dose- saline laxatives (low dose), phenolphthalein, bisacodyl (oral), anthraquinone group.
• Rapid onset- those which lead to a watery evacuation in 2-6 hrs of a single dose. - Saline laxatives (high dose), castor oil, bisacodys (rectal).
Contd….
• Based on mechanism of action:1.Bulk forming agents-By increasing
volume of non-absorbable solid residue.2.Fecal softeners-By altering consistency
of feces.3.Osmotic laxatives-By increasing water
content.4.Stimulant laxatives-By increasing
motility and secretion.
Bulk forming agents:
• Natural or semisynthetic polysacharides.• Not absorbed when given orally.• Produce mechanical distension by absorbing
water.• Can be taken regularly for maintaining bowel
movements.• Site of action S.I& L.I.• Onset of action: 12-72hrs.• Eg: Bran,Isabgol husk,Methyl cellulose.
Fecal softeners (Surfactants).
• Cause water and fat to penetrate stool making it easier to move along.
• Produce tolerance and is ineffective with prolonged use.
• Again divided as: Lubricants. Surface wetting agents.• Site of action-S.I& L.I• Onset of action-12-72hrs.• Eg:sodium docusate,Liquid paraffin.
Osmotic laxatives. (Hydrating agents)
• They cause intestines to concentrate more water within softening the stool.
• Types-Saline. Hyperosmotic.1. Saline: Site of action-S.I&L.I. Onset of action-1/2-6 hrs in cathartic
doses.(empty stomach) -6-8hrs in lower
laxative doses.Eg:Milk of magnesia.
Contd……..
• Hyper-osmotic agents: Site of action-Colon. Onset of action-1/2-3hrs.• Eg:Glycerin suppositories &
Lactulose.• They show primary osmotic effect
in distal ileum & colon after bacterial fermentation.
Stimulant or Irritant laxatives.
• They act mainly by increasing water& electrolyte secretion by mucosa.
• They also increase peristalsis by stimulating the E.N.S.
Bisacodyl,senna.etc.• Site of action-Colon.• Onset of action-6-12hrs.
Contd…..
• Castor oil: Usual cathartic dose-15-60ml(empty
stomach) Site of action- Small Intestine. Onset of action-1-6hrs.(night use not
recommended) Ricinoleic acid reduces net absorption of fluid
and electrolytes and promotes peristalsis. Since action is on S.I evacuation is almost
complete.
Mechanism of Action- Virechana
1. Hydrophilic or osmotic action, retaining water and electrolytes in the intestinal lumen- increase volume of colonic content and make it easily expelled.
2. Acting on intestinal mucosa to reduce net absorption of water and electrolytes, intestinal transit is enhanced indirectly by the fluid bulk.
3. Increasing propulsive activity as primary action allowing less time for absorption of salt and water as a secondary effect.
Virechana phala
Efficacy is compared to the
destruction of aquatic life by
emptying the reservoir
Also to reduction of temperature in
the heat chamber by reducing fire
General rules
Vamana- after digestion of annaVirechana- after digestion of KaphaNo need of oushadha paka to
produce vamanaVirechana occurs during the
digestion of oushadha
Contd…
Mild & less quantity of oushadha- durbala, shodhita, alpadosha, krisha and ajnatakoshta
Better to give repeated shodhana in bahudoshayukta durbala rogi with alpoushadhi
Mandagni & kroorakoshta- ghrita with kshara & lavana before shodhana to control kapha & vata
