Pardadi malham 25gm krishna gopal ayurved bhavan

Pardadi Malham 25gm (also referred to as Paardadi Malham), manufactured by Krishna Gopal Ayurved Bhavan (Kaleda), is a potent classical Ayurvedic ointment specifically formulated for the treatment of infectious and inflammatory skin disorders.

This malham is particularly noted for its effectiveness against syphilitic sores and chronic fungal infections.

Detailed Ingredient Information

The formulation follows traditional texts such as the Yogaratnakara, combining purified minerals with a protective base:

• Shuddha Parada (Purified Mercury): Acts as a powerful antimicrobial and alterative agent to treat chronic and venereal skin lesions.

• Shuddha Gandhak (Purified Sulphur): Works synergistically with Mercury to form Kajjali, providing potent antifungal and antibacterial properties.

• Mridarshring (Litharge/Lead Oxide): Traditionally used in Ayurvedic ointments for its drying and healing effect on weeping or oozing wounds.

• Siktha Taila/Malam Base: A base typically composed of beeswax or clarified butter (Ghrita) to ensure the minerals stay in contact with the skin and penetrate the affected layers.

Key Therapeutic Benefits

• Infectious Skin Lesions: Traditionally indicated for the treatment of Upadamsha (syphilitic wounds) and other chronic bacterial sores.

• Fungal Infections: Highly effective against ringworm (Dadru), athlete’s foot, and persistent fungal growth on the skin.

• Chronic Eczema & Psoriasis: Helps reduce the thick scaling, redness, and intense itching associated with long-term inflammatory skin issues.

• Inflammation Reduction: Its anti-inflammatory properties help soothe swelling and heat in the localized area of infection.

• Wound Healing: Promotes the regeneration of healthy tissue in minor cuts, abrasions, and infected wounds that are slow to heal.

Precautions

• Medical Supervision: Because it contains purified heavy metals (Mercury), it must only be used under the direct supervision of an Ayurvedic physician.

• External Use Only: Strictly for topical application; accidental ingestion can be toxic and requires immediate medical attention.

• Patch Test: Due to the potency of Sulphur and Mercury, it may cause a stinging sensation; test on a small patch of healthy skin first.

• Avoid Sensitive Areas: Keep away from the eyes, nostrils, mouth, and internal genital mucosa.

• Pregnancy & Children: Consult a doctor before using on children or during pregnancy/lactation, as metallic preparations require extra caution.
