''Tarpana sneha nasya'' should be administered into the nostrils of a patient in the early morning or midnoon, who has attended to his ablutions lying down supine comfortably on a well spread couch, with head extended and the foot slightly raised. If the head is not lowered at all, the medication does not reach the head. If the head is excessively lowered the nasya medication may reach into the brain. Hence, a reclining patient for proper purification should be administered fomentation to the head. After proper fomentation, the tip of nose elevated with the thumb of left hand and with the right hand the unctuous errhine should be dropped into the nostril through a tube or gauze, equally into both the nostrils. After having done this, the head should be duly fomented and the instilled medicine should be repeatedly extracted along with the phlegmmatous discharge so that no medicine remains. (98-103½)

The mucus liquefied by the sudation, accumulated by the administration of errhine will get condensed back in the head due to the inherent coldness of the unctuous errhine which leads to diseases of ears, neck and throat. Hence, after the errhine therapy, one should take smoking which eliminates kapha, consume wholesome diet, resort to breezeless, warm residence and observe self restraint.  

The mucus liquefied by the sudation, accumulated by the administration of errhine will get condensed back in the head due to the inherent coldness of the unctuous errhine which leads to diseases of ears, neck and throat. Hence, after the errhine therapy, one should take smoking which eliminates ''kapha'', consume wholesome diet, resort to breezeless, warm residence and observe self restraint.  

The same procedure should be employed for administration of avapida nasya (expressed errhine). As regards pradhmapana (powder inhalation), the medicinal powder should be blown by mouth through a 6 Angula long tube. After purification of the head he should be made to drink hot water followed by predominant fluid diet which is light and not against the three doshas, and then made to reside in a breezeless place by vigilant physician. One who is purified off the doshas if indulges in factors which cause dosha aggravation, the doshas getting provoked move about in the body producing many diseases due to them. In these the wise physician should carry out treatments as mentioned and as appropriate for diseases arising due to untimely administration of errhine therapy. (104-110)
