Manisha Vaman Davkare* and Subhash Jamdhade

ABSTRACT

The pallor on the skin is a significant diagnostic feature of Pandu Roga, which is produced by a quantitative and qualitative deficiency of Raktu dhatu (blood tissue), which can be caused by a lack of haemoglobin and/or red blood cells. The clinical signs and symptoms of Pandu and Anemia are similar, the clinical condition of Pandu in Ayurveda can be linked to Anaemia as described in mainstream medicine. Anemia is described as a drop in haemoglobin concentration below the normal range found in healthy people. Because IDA is a very frequent disease in society, and the adverse effects of oral allopathic iron preparations are extremely common, Ayurvedic herbs-mineral medicine is a superior choice. Aim & Objective: - To study the various formulations described in Ayurveda as a Shaman Chikitsa in Pandu Roga(IDA). Methodology: - The various research articles searched by Google scholars on the Ayurvedic management of the Pandu Roga from 2010-to 2021 were selected. Discussion: - It is Vyadhi of Rasavahasrotas and is also associated with Raktavahasrotas. Pandu can be clinically correlated with Iron deficiency Anemia as the sign and symptoms of both are similar. Conclusion: - With the Shaman Chikitsa and the properties of Raktashodhak and Rakta Vardhan, Pandu Roga can be efficiently handled.
