Source: Shodhganga: Kasyapa Samhita—Text on Visha ChikitsaUnduru (उन्दुरु) refers to “rats”.—The rat is popularly known as Ākhu, Mūṣika and Unduru. Amarakosa (II.5.12) enlists the various synonyms of rat. Kāśyapa, however uses only two names of the rat—Ākhu and Mūṣika. He gives antidotes for the 16 varieties of rats. The author follows this up with certain general instructions in tackling poisons. The Kāśyapasaṃhitā seems to consider rat poison as the next powerful one, seriously affecting human beings.
Āyurveda (आयुर्वेद, ayurveda) is a branch of Indian science dealing with medicine, herbalism, taxology, anatomy, surgery, alchemy and related topics.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
