'''Applied aspect of Samana and Vichitra Pratyayarabdha Dravya w.s.r. to Vipaka:''' Arabdhata and Pratyaarabdhata are two Ayurvedic concepts that are related to the conjugation and configuration of [[mahabhuta]] (five elements). During digestion and metabolism, every material experiences some modifications. A clinical investigation was conducted on 24 healthy adults to better grasp the concepts of arabdhata and pratyarabdhatadata using four distinct medications with the same composition but two different [[vipaka]]. The study's findings revealed that all of the drugs affected koshtha (bowel pattern) according to their [[vipaka]] in a few parameters, particularly stool and defecation habits. But most of the other parameters were statistically insignificant, implying that drugs act according to [[vipaka]] to some extent. However, [[vipaka]] is not the only factor that determines the pharmacological action of the drug.<ref>Jadoun A, Dwivedi R.
