Summary of article contents:
Introduction: Dyslipidemia is an abnormal amount of lipids (e.g., triglycerides, cholesterol, and/or fat phospholipids) in the blood. This is often due to diet and lifestyle. It is also known as hyperlipoproteinemia. Jatharagnimandya (weakness of digestive fire) and Medodhatvagnimandya help in the vitiation of Kapha dosha (humor) and Medo Dhatu (Fatty tissue) is further involved in the pathogenesis of dyslipidemia. Aim: To evaluate the comparative effect of Lekhaniya mahakasaya Ghan vati and Mustadi Ghan vati in management of Dyslipidemia. Material and Methods: Patients with a high lipid profile were selected and randomly divided into two groups of 15 patients each. Lekhaniya mahakasaya Ghan vati and Mustadi Ghan vati were given in equal dose and for equal duration (6 weeks). Body Mass Index (BMI), weight, and lipid profile parameters were taken for assessment and statistically interpreted with paired and unpaired 't' tests before and after treatment. Result: Group-A and Group-B have provided statistically highly significant relief in weight and BMI (p<0.001). But Group A provided significant improvement in S. Cholesterol, S.Triglycerides, S.LDL, S.VLDL (p<0.05) and insignificant relief in S.HDL (p>0.05) whereas in Mustadi Ghan vati (Group-B) insignificant relief found in all lipid parameters (p>0.05). Conclusion: Both drugs have the same role in the decrease in weight and BMI but there is a difference in effect on lipid parameters.
