Abstract
Gout is often classified under arthritis; it is a metabolic disorder caused by excess uric acid. In Ayurveda, Vatarakta is extensively described, showing its prevalence in ancient times as well. In today’s era, due to lifestyle changes and altered food habits, the incidence of Vatarakta (gout) has significantly increased. In this study, a patient underwent a 45-day interventional, single study clinical trial. The treatment included Gandharvahastadi Kashayam (40 ml), Amrutadi Guggulu (two tablets of 500 mg each twice daily with Kashayam), Eranda Taila (5 ml HS), and local application of Pinda Taila. The patient was evaluated at two-week intervals during the 2nd, 4th, and 6th weeks. Both subjective and objective parameters were assessed, and the results showed encouraging improvement in the management of Vatarakta (gout) without any side effects.
