Lootavisha or spider poisoning is coming under the group of jangama visha according to Ayurveda. In the classics, lootavisha has been considered as difficult to treat due to its difficulty in diagnosis and severity in nature. Among the clinical features it includes both local and systemic manifestations. In this regard so many medicinal preparations have also been described in the classics. Lodhrasevyadi yoga is one such a medicine described by Acharya Vagbhata. In the clinical practice it is found to be very effective for the treatment of any kind of lootavisha. As it contains maximum sheeta veerya drugs having madhura rasa and kapha-pittahara property, it can also be used in other dermatological conditions with kapha-pitta predominancy effectively. Again, as all the drugs of this yoga are easily available and not controversial, it can be prepared easily and can be administered in any form to treat any type of spider bite.
