Agnitundi Vati is an Ayurvedic Herbal Formulation indicated in indigestion and fever. Agni literally means fire in Ayurveda. It is an Ayurvedic formula that helps to strengthen the digestive capacity of the intestines. It’s a widely used formulation that has digestive and carminative herbs. The herbal ingredients help to reduce intestinal gaseous distention, indigestion, and also encourage the natural digestive process. In Ayurvedic terminologies, it is carminative, digestive, and has Vata pacifying properties. So, it is said to one of the best digestive tonics as well.
This formulation contains Nux-vomica seeds, which is known as Vishtinduka. Nux vomica is a very powerful poison when consumed in large doses as it can lead to tetanic convulsions and ultimately death. In Ayurveda, detoxification of Nux vomica is done before we use these in Agni-tundi vati. After detoxification, it is used in many Ayurvedic medicines which are helpful in treating various disorders of musculoskeletal system viz. Arthritis, Muscle pain, Gout, Nerve pain, etc. if given in adequate quantity. Agnitundi works well as an anticolic, appetite stimulant and digestive, with great benefit. The herb Vatsanabha possesses hot(ushna), dry(ruksha) and sharp(ugra) attributes which diminishes the peristalsis. Vidanga, Jiraka and Ajmoda alleviate kapha dosha and decimate the heaviness and stagnation in digestive tract. That’s why used in ayurvedic treatment of appendicitis. Kajjali works as a rejuvenative, antimicrobial and yogavahi and helps augmenting the potency of the formulation. This is the choicest drug for kaphaja digestive disorders.
