Abstract

Medications with anti-toxic qualities are referred to as 'Agada'. They are used against gada, i.e., discomfort, pain, or pathological disorders brought on by poison of any kind. In Ayurvedic Samhita, numerous medicines with anti-toxic properties are recorded. According to Aacharya Vagbhata, Mandaragad is mentioned in the Ashtanghrudayam Uttarsthan Keetlootadivishpratishedham Adhyay. All forms of loota visha (spider bite) and keeta visha (bug bite) can benefit from this Agada. The treatment of spider venom is described in ancient writings. Thus, the current study provides insight into the therapeutic benefits of Mandaragad in lutavisha. Ayurvedic remedies such as Mandaragad could assist in treating spider bites. Additional studies are required to verify their efficacy against spider venom.

KEY WORDS:-  Lutavisha, Mandaragad, Spider venom, Antitoxic action
