Abstract

Aim: Postnatal care with Ayurvedic medicine is the basic concept behind this clinical trial. Materials and Methods: In the
present study 20 uncomplicated vaginally delivered patients with episiotomy were taken from the study centre and divided
into two groups. In GroupA (n=10) patients were treated with Gandhak Rasayana vati, Sookshma Triphala vati & Triphala
Kwatha & in Group B (n=10) Tab.Ciprofloxacin + Tinidazole (500+200) mg, Tab Serratiopeptidase 10mg, Betadine ointment
& liquid Dettol for 7 days and results were observed. In observation clinical findings were noted on 0th, 3rd, 6th & 9th day.
Results: In the Group A no generalized or localized sepsis observed in any patient. Quality of wound healing, involution of
uterus, nature of lochia and local tenderness shows statistically equal ‘t’ value i.e. 0, 0.710, 0.534 and 0.599 respectively
when compared with Group B. Conclusions: It can be concluded that the Ayurvedic drugs are significantly effective in
postnatal care when compared with modern drugs to combat infections. Hence Gandhak Rasayana vati, SookshmaTriphala
