''Ikshvaku'' is referred at various places in [[Charaka Samhita]] by synonyms like ''Lamba, Katukalabu, Tumbi, Pindphala'' and ''Phalini''. It is indicated in ''Kasa''(cough), ''Shwasa''(dyspnea/asthma), ''Visha''(toxins), ''Chhardi''(vomiting), ''Jwara''(fever) and ''Pratamyata''(blackouts). The most potent and useful part employed in recipes are leaves (collected before flowering), fruits and seeds. Two more synonyms - ''Katutumbi'' and ''Mahaphala'' are quoted for ''Ikshvaku'' with ''hridya''( cardio-protective) and ''vishahara''( anti-poisonous) properties. ~~[1]~~

''Ikshvaku'' is referred at various places in [[Charaka Samhita]] by synonyms like ''Lamba, Katukalabu, Tumbi, Pindphala'' and ''Phalini''. It is indicated in ''Kasa''(cough), ''Shwasa''(dyspnea/asthma), ''Visha''(toxins), ''Chhardi''(vomiting), ''Jwara''(fever) and ''Pratamyata''(blackouts). The most potent and useful part employed in recipes are leaves (collected before flowering), fruits and seeds. Two more synonyms - ''Katutumbi'' and ''Mahaphala'' are quoted for ''Ikshvaku'' with ''hridya''( cardio-protective) and ''vishahara''( anti-poisonous) properties. <ref> Bhavamishra,Shakavarga, In:Prof. K.C. Chunekar,Late Dr. G.S. Pandey, editors,Bhavaprakash Nighantu, ?ed,Varanasi:Chaukhamba Bharati Acadamy,2010, pp 682</ref>

In a ''samabhasha'' (discussion) referred in [[Siddhi Sthana]], King Vamaka opined that ''Katutumbi'' is the best emetic and capable of eliminating ~~''doshas''~~. Lord Atreya concluded that ''Katutumbi'' is useful for the treatment of ''Prameha'' (urinary diseases including diabetes), however ''Madanaphala'' is superior, because it can be prescribed in various other disease conditions too.

Rajanighantu mentioned several varieties of ''Tumbi'' like ''Kumbha tumbi, Ksheeratumbi, Bhutumbi'' etc. whereas Bhavamishra identified two varieties of ''Tumbi'', namely ''Madhura'' and ''Latatumbi''.

'''Distribution''' – Wild Lagenaria siceraria is generally met with in and around forest villages, almost throughout India. In this form, both the fruit (unripe and ripe) and the root are bitter to taste and are supposed to be used in Indian systems of Medicine. The non – bitter form with edible, unripe fruit is cultivated and is available throughout the year for consumption. The morphological description, however, matches for both the forms~~[4].~~

A large fistful of the sprouts of the plant (leaves) that has not yet put forth flowers should be boiled in 64 ''tolas'' (768ml) of milk and given in the fever of the [[kapha]] type, with [[pitta]] provocation.[5]

As per the description of the recipes of ''jimutaka'' in the earlier chapter, four types of milk preparations are to be made out of its flowers etc.(Milk should be prepared with its flowers, milky gruel with freshly appeared fruits, milk cream with hairy fruits, curd with non hairy one and sour curd from milk boiled with the pale green fruit).The fifth one is made by soaking green – pale fruits in ''suramanda''. [6]

−

One part of the expressed juice of the fruits should be boiled with three parts milk. This is to be administered in accumulation of ''kapha'' in the chest, in hoarseness of voice and chronic coryza.[7]

One part of the expressed juice of the fruits should be boiled with three parts milk. This is to be administered in accumulation of [[kapha]] in the chest, in hoarseness of voice and chronic coryza.[7]

The pulp of a ripe fruit of ''ikshvaku'' should be removed and in this shell, milk should be kept till it becomes curd. This curd should be given as potion in cough with expectoration, dyspnea and vomiting.[8]

Line 220: Line 248:

The person habituated to pleasant smell should be made to vomiting by smelling a flower which has been sprinkled over with the fruit –juice and the powder of the dried flowers of the bottle gourd.[11]

One ''anjali'' (192 grams) of the bottle gourd seeds should be boiled in the decoction of the roots of ''bilva'' and strained. Take three parts of these decoction, one part of ''phanita'' (half boiled sugarcane juice), one part of ghee, half part of each of the pastes of the seeds of sponge gourd, bristly luffa and ''kurchi''. This should be prepared into a linctus on a gentle fire stirring the stuff with a ladle till it has obtained the consistency of forming threads which do not snap when put into water .This linctus should be taken in proper dose followed by a potion of the digestive stimulant decoction. Similarly, linctus recipes of ''ikshvaku'' seeds can be prepared with the decoction of roots of ''agnimantha, shyonaka, patala'' and ''gambhari''. [15-18]
