Pratidina (प्रतिदिन) refers to “every day” and is mentioned in verse 3.2 of the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā (Sūtrasthāna) by Vāgbhaṭa.—Accordingly, “[...] Pre-spring etc.—by these three (seasons) one shall know the northern course (of the sun), and this (is named) ‘absorption’ (as) it absorbs strength from man every day [viz., pratidina]”.

Note: Pratidina [pratidinam] (“every day”) (like dina° in I.2 introd.) has been rendered by ñin re-źiñ. CD read ñin re bźiñ instead, which would be “χα[?] ἑχάοτην [ι?]ὴν ἡμέ[?]αν” (Isoc. IV.78), the Tibetan bźin or bźin-du being often equivalent to the Greek “χατά” with accusative; cf. Jaschke, Dict. p. 483.

Pratidina (प्रतिदिन) refers to “every day”, according to the 11th century Jñānārṇava, a treatise on Jain Yoga in roughly 2200 Sanskrit verses composed by Śubhacandra.—Accordingly, “Is one not disturbed by [family] attachments? Is this body not cut down by diseases? Does death not open its mouth? Do calamities not do harm every day (pratidinapratidinaṃ druhyanti kiṃ nāpadaḥ)? Are hells not dreadful? Are not sensual pleasures deceiving like a dream? Because of which, having discarded one’s own benefit, you have a desire for the world which is like a city of Kiṃnaras”.
