The following ingredients should be taken in equal part: Daśamūla (Bilva, Pāṭalā, Śyonāka, Gambhārī, Agnimantha, Śālaparṇī, Pṛśniparṇī, Bṛhatī, Kaṇṭakārī and Gokṣura). The powder of Pippalī is added to the decoction before intake. The Daśamūla decoction is administered when the following symptoms are indicated:—Pain, oedema, puerperal disorders, syndromes caused by tridoṣa.
The recipe should be prepared according to the Kvātha (‘liquid decoction’) process. Using this Ayurvedic preparation means you have to boil the herbs in water without a lid till at least three-fourth parts of water is evaporated.
