Source: Shodhganga: Kasyapa Samhita—Text on Visha ChikitsaAllergy refers to one of the topics dealt with in the Kāśyapa Saṃhitā: an ancient Sanskrit text from the Pāñcarātra tradition dealing with both Tantra and Viṣacikitsā—an important topic from Āyurveda which deals with the study of Toxicology (Viṣavidyā or Sarpavidyā).—Vedas, being the fountainhead of all our knowledge and culture, it is but inevitable that Toxicology is also sourced from the Ṛgveda and Atharva veda. [...] The Kāśyapasaṃhitā deals with many technical and non-Agamic subjects like Herpetology, Toxicology, Zoology, Opiliatry, Allergies, Astrology and Svarodaya-vijñāna.
