Abhiṣyandin (अभिष्यन्दिन्) refers to that which is “causative of effluxions”, as mentioned in verse 5.28-29 of the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā (Sūtrasthāna) by Vāgbhaṭa.—Accordingly, “[...] among the (different kinds of milk [viz., payas]), [...] raw [viz., āma] milk (is) causative of effluxions [viz., abhiṣyandin] (and) heavy, properly boiled one different from this; very heavy is (milk that has been) excessively boiled; (that which is still) warm from milking (is) nectar-like”.

Note: Abhiṣyandin (“causative of effluxions”) has been translated by bad-kan skyed-ciṅ (“produces phlegm”); cf. v. 18.
