Updanshripu malam 25gm krishna gopal ayurved bhavan

Updanshripu Malam 25gm, manufactured by Krishna Gopal Ayurved Bhavan (Kaleda), is a specialized Ayurvedic ointment specifically formulated to treat venereal sores and chronic infectious skin lesions.

The name “Updansh-ripu” literally translates to the “enemy of Updansha” (syphilis or soft chancre), highlighting its primary traditional use in managing genital ulcers and bacterial infections of the skin.

This potent mineral-based formulation is designed to disinfect wounds, reduce inflammation, and accelerate the healing of deep-seated ulcers.

Detailed Ingredient Information

The formulation follows the principles of Rasashastra, utilizing purified minerals and metallic salts:

• Shuddha Parada (Purified Mercury): A powerful antimicrobial agent used in Ayurvedic alchemy to treat chronic infections and venereal diseases.

• Shuddha Gandhak (Purified Sulphur): Synergizes with mercury to provide intense antifungal and antibacterial action while purifying the skin tissue.

• Tuttha (Purified Blue Vitriol/Copper Sulphate): Acts as a potent disinfectant and “Lekhana” (scraping) agent to remove dead or infected tissue from wounds.

• Karpura (Camphor): Provides a cooling effect, reduces burning sensations, and acts as a mild analgesic and antiseptic.

• Malam Base: Typically consists of a blend of beeswax and vegetable oils to ensure the active minerals adhere to the skin for prolonged action.

Key Therapeutic Benefits

• Venereal Sores: Traditionally used as a primary treatment for ulcers and sores associated with Updansha (syphilis) and other similar infections.

• Non-Healing Ulcers: Stimulates the healing process in chronic, slow-healing wounds and skin ulcers that have become resistant to other treatments.

• Infected Wounds: Effectively cleanses wounds of pus and bacteria, preventing the spread of infection to surrounding tissues.

• Skin Disinfectant: Its strong antimicrobial properties make it useful for treating localized bacterial and fungal infections of the skin.

• Inflammation & Swelling: Helps reduce the localized redness, pain, and swelling associated with infected skin lesions.

Precautions

• Medical Supervision Required: This ointment contains heavy metals and must only be used under the strict guidance of a qualified Ayurvedic physician.

• External Use Only: It is highly toxic if ingested; ensure it is applied only to the affected external skin area.

• Genital Application: While used for venereal sores, it should be applied with extreme care. Avoid contact with internal mucous membranes.

• Sensitivity Test: The presence of Copper Sulphate and Sulphur may cause a burning sensation; perform a patch test before full application.

• Pregnancy & Children: Not recommended for use on children or during pregnancy/lactation without explicit medical advice.
