Kapila(Mallotus Philippinensis) churna 250Gm Manakarnika Aushadhalaya

Detailed Ingredient Information

• Kapila / Kampillaka (Mallotus philippinensis): 100% pure glandular fruit powder.

  • Rottlerin: The primary bioactive compound responsible for its potent anthelmintic (anti-worm) and antimicrobial properties.

  • Isorottlerin: Works alongside rottlerin to disrupt the metabolic processes of intestinal parasites.

  • Resinous Acids: Provide the strong purgative effect required to expel neutralized worms from the digestive tract.

  • Tannins: Offer astringent and wound-healing properties, useful for treating weeping skin lesions.

Key Therapeutic Benefits

• Anthelmintic Action: Specifically effective against tapeworms, roundworms, and threadworms; it paralyzes the worms for easy expulsion.

• Purgative Effect: Acts as a Virechana (purgative) agent, helping to clear “Ama” (toxins) and fecal buildup from the intestines.

• Skin Disease Management: Used externally to treat Scabies, Ringworm, Eczema, and chronic fungal infections.

• Wound Healing: Its antimicrobial properties help in cleansing infected wounds and promoting faster tissue repair.

• Blood Purifier: Internally, it helps in “Raktashodhana,” making it useful for managing Pitta-related skin eruptions and boils.

• Metabolic Support: Indicated in some texts for managing symptoms of urinary stones (calculi) and abdominal tumors (Gulma).

Precautions

• Strict Dosage Control: High doses can lead to severe abdominal cramping, nausea, vomiting, and excessive purging. Use only as directed (typically 1–3g for adults).

• Pregnancy & Lactation: Avoid use during pregnancy as its strong purgative and “Ushna” (hot) nature may pose risks.

• Pediatric Use: While used for deworming children, the dosage must be extremely precise and monitored by a physician.

• High Pitta: Individuals with sensitive stomachs or prone to hyperacidity should use it cautiously with a cooling agent like Ghee.

• Short-Term Use: Generally used for a few days (3–5) for deworming rather than as a daily long-term supplement.
