INTRODUCTION

Apart from other medical sciences

prevailing in different parts of the world
Ayurveda holds its prime importance not
only as a atibhautika Shastra but also as
a adyatmika Shastra, so while prescribing
the proper treatment the physician has to
acess many factors prior to the medicine.
A detailed description of these factors
has been enlisted in almost all the
authentic books available now.

FACTORS TO BE EVALUVATED

All these factors when evaluvated properly by the wise

physician and then when the medicine is administered
properly the treatment yields good results.
In this context the role of yukti plays a major importance.

So a wise physician who is well versed in accessing
other factors accurately before prescribing the
proper treatment always stands superior to a
physician who mblindly prescribes a drug.
