Vaatmukta (Tablet & Liniment)

(Effective Regime for Pains and Inflammations)

Introduction to Pains & Inflammations
       Ayurveda has classified 3 symptoms “Pain, Burning and Itching” and given 3 best vehicles to treat them. They are Oil, Ghee and Honey respectively. As per the etiological factors and their nature of origin, these symptoms have been classified as Vaat, Pitta and Kapha predominance in the given order. Hence, Oil is considered as the best regime to treat all kinds of aches, pain, swellings, inflammations, tenderness and throbbing. Based on this scientific principle, Akshay has formulated VAATMUKTA brand in the form of Tablets for oral consumption & Liniment for local treatment over the inflamed tissues.

         VAATMUKTA tablets possess potent disease modifying activity, specific anti-arthritic, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. Leukotrines and Prostaglandins are hormone like components in the body playing key role in the process of initiating pain and inflammations. Sallaki is a proven Leukotrine inhibitory ingredient and Guggul has prostaglandin inhibitory action. This is yet additional strength of VAATMUKTA tablets. It also helps in controlling body weight which plays a major role in aggravating the arthritic symptoms. Composition in tablet regulates digestive process to modify the endotoxins which is a root cause of rheumatoid arthritis. Hadjoda prevents crippling by supporting regeneration of healthy cartilages and strengthens the surrounding musculature.

        VAATMUKTA Liniment possesses deep penetrating property for improving mobility and flexibility. It does not contain any artificial base like petroleum / paraffin etc. 100% pure Sesame Oil is used as the base, having the most superior access and Vaata pacifying activity.

Vaatmukta (Tablets)
       Each coated tablet contains powders of:
Devdar (Cedrus deodara), Erandmool (Ricinus communis), Hadjoda (Cessus quadrangularis) Each 100 mg; Shallaki gum (Boswellia serrata), Shuddha Guggul (Balsamodendron mukul) Each 50 mg; Shuddha Kuchala (Strychnous Nux-vomica) 25 mg; Micronized and Potentised with Erand mool (Ricinus communis) Q.S.

Properties of individual ingredients:
Deodar (Cedrus deodara): Lipoxygenase plays a key role in the process of inflammation and this herb has an established lipoxygenase inhibitory activity. Further, it has a pronounced pain controlling activity.

Erandmool (Ricinus communis): Ayurveda states “आमवातगजेन्द्रस्य शरीरवनचारिणः l एक एव निहन्ताऽयमैरण्डस्नेहकेसरी ll” which means, “For an intoxicated elephant called Amavata (Rheumatoid Arthritis) dwelling and destroying the garden called body at will, there is only one controller and that is a Lion named Eranda Sneha (Castor oil).”

Diclofenac Sodium is a known analgesic in modern medicine. It is effective in pain management of even unknown etiology. The comparative study of therapeutic activity WRT Erandmool and Diclofenac Sodium was performed. Erandmool was proved to be equally effective and safe.

Haadjoda (Cessus quadrangularis): Ayurveda mentions that an individual should perform exercise only up to his half capacity of his physical strength. If it exceeds the defined limit, the result is erosion and swelling of the joints. Due to ignorance, some young people perform such painstaking exercise for rapid weight loss or body building and eventually suffer from arthritis. It is researched that this herb is amazingly effective in restructuring the joint erosion in such cases.

Shallaki (Boswellia serrata): The gum of this herb is used as an active ingredient. Boswellic acid is the dynamic constituent of this gum. It is clinically proved and established that Boswellic acid helps to limit the inflammation, pain and improves mobility in very short period. It helps in both, Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid arthritis as it inhibits Leukotrienes and Prostaglandins, the key elements responsible for inflammatory disorders.

Shuddha Guggul (Balsamodendron mukul): It’s again a gum derived from the said plant. It is not only anti-inflammatory but specially identified as anti-arthritic. It is also effective in balancing the lipid levels in the blood and an established ingredient for weight management. Its dual utility is amazing because of the weight lowering effect and anti-arthritic activity. Practically, reducing body weight also helps to lower the damage on the joints. It has proven Prostaglandin inhibitory activity.

Shuddha Kuchala (Strychnous nux-vomica): It is an excellent and rapid acting regimen for pain management, however it is poisonous too. In this sequel, it proves the dictum “Poison can be as effective as nectar if used intelligently and nectar can be as harmful as poison if used without proper knowledge”. Ayurveda has described an authentic process for purification to eliminate the toxic element and fortify the active medicinal constituent. Strychnine and Brucine are the two toxic elements in this herb. Strychnine is highly poisonous.

          The said purification process removes the Strychnine and converts Brucine into Isobrucine which is an incredible painkiller. It acts as a local analgesic and also effective in controlling the pain receptors in the brain (CNS). After appropriate purification, the hidden constructive benefits also become apparent. It helps to sharpen memory, improves humoral immunity, corrects the liver function, reduces the relapse of epileptic seizures, effective in some types of cancers, corrects digestion and also helps to purge the snake venom. It is highly recommended in Rheumatoid arthritis owing to the property to achieve stability of physiological status.
