It is effective in treating urinary tract disorders because it promotes the flow of urine and soothes the membranes of the urinary tract. It acts as a diuretic as well, renal health is maintained by nitrogen, which acts as a renal stimulant.

Rasayan Dravya- 

According to Ayurveda, tissue damage can be prevented and repaired by Rasayana for Mutravaha Srotas (urinary system). Rasayanas have the ability to improve the immunity of tissues and hence increase the resistance of the tissues. It will increase excretion filtration by increasing RBC & HB (Rakta bhar vridhi ) whereby it acts as anti-inflammatory (shothaghna) and overcome Urine retention (muttrakrichha).

Anti Emetic and Digestive Dravya 

helps in the reduction of vomiting and sensation of vomiting as well. It increases appetite and also improves digestion. For this reason, pitta pacifying tablet was also administered which works like Proton Pump Inhibitor (pantop).
