Summary of article contents:

Background: Bheshaja sevana kala is the principle of time of administration of the medicine. Drug exhibits different actions when administered in different bheshaja sevana kala (time of administration of medicine). Actual aim of bheshajasevanakala is to provide the fulfillment towards desired action of drug administration in patient in order to pacify the disease. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of bheshaja Sevana kala (time of administration of medicine) in the disease prameha (diabetes mellitus, type-II). Methods: A randomized clinical trial was outlined with a pre, mid and post test assessment of 30 patients satisfying the inclusion criteria. In the present study 15
patients were asked to consume 4gm of Guduchi churna (powder of Tinispora cordifolia) in pragbhakta (before food) and pratah adhobhaktakala (morning after food) with lukewarm water and another 15 patients were asked to take 4gm of Guduchi churna three times a day after food with lukewarm water for a duration of 30 days. After intervention, results were analyzed statistically. Results: In the present study, fairly good results were observed in all the parameters of the study. There was no much difference in the result between the groups with regards to subjective parameters i.e. prabhootamootrata (polyurea), pipasa (polydypsia), kshuda (polyphagia), swedapravrutti (excessive sweating), karapadadaha (burning sensation in palms and soles) supti (numbness) and
klama (fatigue). In regards to FBS and PPBS patients of group A showed better result than group B, but it was statistically insignificant (P value > 0.05) between the groups. In case of avilamootrata (urine turbidity), also group A showed better result than group B and the result was statistically significant (P value 0.002). Conclusion:
Guduchi churna (powder of Tinispora cordifolia) administered during appropriate time showed statistically significant result in subsiding the cardinal symptom of prameha i.e. avilamootrata (urine turbidity).
