Abstract: Herbal and herbo-mineral medicines are extensively utilized in Ayurveda, offering broad therapeutic indications. Among these, Rasa Oushadhi stands out for its rejuvenating attributes, prolonged shelf life, and potent efficacy even in small doses, making it a cornerstone of Ayurvedic practice. Chandraprabha Vati, a classical multi-ingredient herbo-mineral formulation, exemplifies these principles. With its diverse pharmacotherapeutic applications, it addresses conditions such as Prameha, Arbudha, Artava, Mutra Vikaras, and Arshas. Renowned for its Rasayana, Balya, and Tridosha Shamaka properties, Chandraprabha Vati serves as a panacea for a multitude of ailments, earning it the epithet "Sarvaroga Pranashini." Its role extends to reproductive health concerns in both genders, with documented research highlighting its potential hypotensive and hypoglycemic effects. Additionally, Chandraprabha Vati boosts immunity and fortifies the body due to its Rasayana attributes. This study endeavors to compile and analyze various formulations of Chandraprabha Vati from diverse Ayurvedic texts, elucidating their ingredients, dosages, indications, modes of action, and therapeutic applications.
