Ashtavargam Kashayam originates from the classical Sahasra Yoga and is composed of eight potent herbs including Bala (Sida cordifolia), Sahachara (Strobilanthes ciliatus), Rasna, Nirgundi, Eranda, Shunthi, Devadaru, and Garlic. Traditionally, it is used in Ayurveda to pacify aggravated Vata dosha, and is indicated for joint stiffness, swelling, muscular rigidity, and neurological symptoms such as numbness or weakness. As a warming formulation, excessive use may cause minor gastric discomfort in sensitive individuals, so professional guidance is recommended.
