A Comparative study of vatarakta chikitsa chapter from charak samhita and vangasena samhita

Brihatrayee and laghutrayee are today’s available classical texts. However literature about Ayurveda has been created before & after these classical texts. Vangasena Samhita is one of such neglected but valuable text in between these two literatures. There might be chances that Vangasena contains different diagnosis and treatment principle of diseases. Vatarakta is important health condition which may lead to several health morbidities, if untreated. So efforts are made to study difference between formulations and treatment principles of Charak Samhita (One of the part of Brihatrayee) & Vangasena samhita.   The information is scattered in samhitas and thus it is necessary to compile them, also every samhita writer has its own view for diagnosis and treatment hence comparison between those samhitas with respect to Vatarakta is very important.
