Abstract

Ayurveda describes the use of Kumari (Aloe vera Tourn. ex Linn., Liliaceae) for the management of different disease conditions in classical texts. In this article, an attempt has been made to compile as critically and its information related to Kumari from three samhitas, more than six samgraha granthas, and seven nighantus and other published texts. It is observed that root, leaves juice, extraction of Kumari are used as an ingredient in 267 formulations, which are effective in more than 41 disease conditions. The main indications include kushtha (skin disease), jwara (fever), kshaya (pulmonary tuberculosis), arsha (piles), vrana (wound), striroga (gynecological disorders), prameha (diabetes), pandu (jaundice), daha (burning sensation) etc., different parts of Kumari are used in about 12 dosage forms; such as kvatha (decoction), lepa (paste), avaleha (semi-solid preparations), taila (oil), ghrita (fat soluble preparations), vati (pills), churna (powder), rasa (mineral preparations) & nasya (nasal preparations).
