What could be the treatment of ksheen pitta (pitta which has lost its digestive power ,which only increases body heat )
Virechana treatment followed by Tikta Deepaka Medicines such as Guduchi, Patola Katu Rohinyadi Kashaya,
Small dose of Ushna medicines such as Trikatu, Hingvasthaka churna.
Actually my ayurvedic doc told me not to use hot churnas lyk trikatu hingwa etc
.he actually prescribed me sootshekhar ras to Rejuvenate the whole pitta qualities .
Its been 15 days but its not working yet .

It can be used for 2 – 3 months time, if your doctor prescribes it for that period.
