ABSTRACT
Anaemia is considered as a major health problem in developing countries. Children and women of reproductive age are the two most common age groups who suffer from anaemia especially due to lack of proper nutrition. In Unani system of Medicine (USM) anaemia is addressed as su-al-qiniya. In USM liver is considered as a vital organ that is the main site for the production of Akhlat (blood). Nutriments after their processing in alimentary canal transferred to liver through portal vein where they are transformed into the blood by the faculties of liver. The process of this transformation is known as hepatic digestion. So any disturbance in liver, alimentary canal as well as in nutriment itself may result in deficient production of blood i.e. anaemia. Management of su-al-qiniya depends upon the underlying cause. A female patient suffering from anaemia came to NIUM hospital, Bengaluru. After taking basic parameters compound Unani formulations (a) Syrup Jigreen (b) Tab Damvi were given for two months. It was observed that there was a significant improvement in subjective as well as objective parameters. Based on observation it is inferred that a combination of Tab damvi and Syrup Jigreen may prove to be effective in management of Megaloblastic Anaemia.
