The following ingredients should be taken in equal part: Candana, Uśīr, Bālaka, Parpaṭa, Śuṇṭhī and Musta. The Pathyāṣaḍaṅga decoction is used to alleviate fever, burning sensation and thirst.
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.
