'''Gomutra (cow urine):''' In vaitaranabasti, cow urine is main ingredient. Its pungent taste (katu rasa), pungent post digestive effect (katuvipaka), hot potency (ushnavirya), light to digest (laghu), dry (ruksha) and sharp (tikshna) properties pacify kapha and vata. It stimulates agni (agnideepana-pachana), purifies body channels (srotovishodhana),pacifies vata (vatanulomana) and relieves ama. It is the best and useful among all urines (mutra).<ref>Vagbhata. Ashtanga Hridaya. With Commentaries SarvangaSundari of Arunadatta and Ayurvedarasayana of Hemadri.Varanasi; Chaukambha Sanskrit Sansthan; 2012. p.83[A.h.Sus.5/82].</ref> It is useful in obesity, certain cardiac and renal diseases,indigestion, stomachache, diarrhea, oedema, jaundice,anemia, hemorrhoids and skin diseases including vitiligo. It acts as bio-enhancer and has antifungal, antimicrobial, germicidal, bactericidal, anthelmintic, antioxidant and antineoplastic action. It is useful in hypersensitivity reactions and in numerous other diseases including increasing the life span of a person. It has immune enhancer properties. It augments B and Tblastogenesis and IgA, IgG, and IgM titer in experimental animals. It exhibits antimicrobial and germicidal activity due to the presence of urea, creatinine, and Arum hydroxide (wwarnakshara) in it.Its anti-cancerous activity is due to the presence of uric acid and Allantoin in it. It shows wound healing activity due to the presence of allantoin, immunomodulation due to presence of Arum hydroxide. It prevents cardiovascular diseases due to the presence of kallikrein, urokinase, hippuric acid and ammonia in it. It attributes anti-obesity properties due to the content of copper. It exhibits anti-toxic activity by virtue of Arum hydroxide present in it.<ref>Randhwa GL, Sharma R. Chemotherapeutic potential of cow urine: A review.
