==Specialties of [[Ayurveda]] therapeutics ==
The medical therapeutics today has been classified into many branches focused on a defined group of patients, diseases, skills, or philosophy.<ref>Specialties of Medical Practice available from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specialty_(medicine) retrieved on April 24, 2019</ref>. Each chapter in this section deals with a separate specialty. Being primarily a treatise of ''kayachikitsa'' (medicine), twenty three chapters in the [[Chikitsa Sthana]] deal with medical therapeutics. Other aspects of therapeutics like preservation and promotion of physical, mental, spiritual and sexual health is dealt in the first two chapters of [[Rasayana]] and [[Vajikarana]]. The chapter [[Dwivraniya Chikitsa]] pertains to wound management and briefs about surgical procedures (''shalya''). The chapter [[Visha Chikitsa]] on the management of poisoning (''visha'') deals with ''agada-tantra'' (toxicology). In [[Ayurveda]], psychiatry is dealt with under the heading of ''bhuta-vidya'' and two chapters viz. [[Unmada Chikitsa]] and [[Apasmara Chikitsa]] focus on this aspect of medicine. The last chapter [[Yonivyapat Chikitsa]] describes disorders of male and female infertility, gynecological disorders with paediatrics diseases. The chapter also mentions important principles of time of administration of medicine i.e. chrono-pharmacology and factors for deciding dose i.e. posology.
