About this formulation

Sitopaladi Churna is a classical powder described in the Sharangdhara Samhita and Bhaishajya Ratnavali (Kasa Chikitsa). It contains Sitopala (rock sugar), Vamshalochana (bamboo silica), Pippali (long pepper), cardamom and cinnamon. In Ayurveda it is classed as Kasahara (soothes cough) and Kanthya (good for the throat). It is traditionally taken with honey to support Pranavaha Srotas (the respiratory system) during seasonal changes and to balance Kapha and Vata. A cough lasting more than three weeks, or with breathlessness or high fever, needs a doctor's care.

Classical reference: Bhaishajya Ratnavali / Sharangdhara Samhita (Kasa Chikitsa).
