Abstract
Vataja pratishyaya is one of the nasarogas5. The symptoms of Vataja pratishyaya i.e., nasasrava, nasavarodha, kshwathu, shankapradesha vedana and swaropaghata 2 can be compared with Allergic Rhinitis. It is also the most common disease in day-to-day practiced which are often caused by allergen and environmental pollution. Nasya karma which is one among the panchakarma has got an important role in the management of nasaroga4. Since, vataja pratishyaya is a nasaroga ,nasa is said to be the doorway of shiras and the medicine administered through the nose spreads through shiras and helps in evacuation of dosha, thereby pacifying the disease4. So nasya with panchalavana gritha1 which possess vatahara and sroto shodaka properties might be an effective treatment modality as it may have better drug absorption.
