Vettumaran Gulika — Overview
Vettumaran Gulika is a classical Ayurvedic pill prepared from equal parts of Ponkaram (Tankana/borax), Maricha (black pepper), Vatsanabha, Hingula and Ajamoda, pounded with fresh ginger juice (Ardraka Swarasa) and rolled into pills the size of a green gram (Mudga).
It is traditionally used in fever (Jwara), including Masurika Jwara (eruptive fevers), Vata disorders and Sannipata. The anupana (vehicle) varies by condition: Jeeraka Kashaya for vomiting, Kacchura Kashaya for diarrhea-related Kshobha, Narikela Jala for urinary retention (Mutraghata), Ajamodarka for pain (Soola), and Lasuna Swarasa for abdominal masses (Gulma).
