Due to vitiated ''vata,'' blood becomes arunabham (reddish), non-slimy, frothy and thin. Due to vitiated ''pitta'', it becomes yellow or blackish, with delayed coagulation because of heat. Due to vitiated ''kapha'' it is slightly pale, slimy, fibrous and more viscous. In the case of combination of vitiated ''doshas'', it acquires mixed characters and in ''sannipata'', has symptoms of all the three ''doshas''.[20-21]

After bloodletting, it is beneficial to take diet that is neither too hot nor cold, is light (to digest), and is appetizing. During this period, the body is vulnerable to relapse of various other forms of blood-related diseases, so the ''agni'' (digestive power) should be protected with care. [23]

When a person indulges in spoiled food and unhealthy habits, he develops a clouded sensorium with ''rajas'' and ''tamas'' qualities. The vitiated ''doshas'', singly or in combination, reside and obstruct the channels that carry ''rakta, rasa'' (plasma), and consciousness. This leads to various diseases such as ''mada'' (intoxication), ''murchcha'' (syncope), and ''sanyasa'' (coma) which are etiologically, symptomatically and therapeutically progressive. Vitiated ''doshas'' distress the mind and alter the sensorium leading to further impairment of consciousness. [25-29]

The person should be diagnosed as suffering from ''vatika mada'', if his speech is excessive and fast, movement is unstable, and face is rough, reddish or blackish. A person with angry and harsh tongue, quarrelsome, tends to be physical with a red, yellow and black face should be known to be suffering from ''paittika mada''. The one affected with ''kaphaja mada'' speaks less with incoherence, seems drowsy and lethargic, is pale and is continuously in a state of anxiety. In ''sannipataja mada'', all these features are found in combination. [30-33]

All types of narcosis are caused by alcoholic drinks, poisons or by vitiation of blood. It can be concluded that all types of narcosis are caused by nothing but the vitiation of the three ''doshas'' viz. ''vata, pitta'' and ''kapha''. [34]

''Mada'' and ''murchcha'' subside on their own when the vitiated ''doshas'' subside. However, ''sanyasa'' (coma) does not subside without medical treatment. In weak patients, when vitiated ''doshas'' move into a vital organ (i.e. brain and heart) and start affecting speech, physical movement, and the mind, coma ensues. A person affected with coma appears to be in a vegetative state or seems dead. Death can occur if prompt and effective treatment is not given. The physician should manage a comatose patient just as a wise person recovers a utensil sinking in deep water quickly before it settles down in the bottom.

In the cases of ''mada'' and ''murchcha'', patients should be subjected to five (evacuative) measures, after proper oleation and fomentation, according to the ''dosha'' and strength of the person and the disease. Likewise, the administration of ''paniya-kalyana ghrita'', ''tiktashatpala ghrita'' or ''mahatikta ghrita'' is recommended. The use of ''triphala'' with ''ghrita'', honey and sugar, ''shilajatu,'' milk, ''pippali'' (Piper longum) or ''chitraka'' (Plumbago zeylanica Linn.) with milk, ''rasayana,'' and ''kaumbha'' (ten year old) ''ghrita'' are also beneficial.
