A combination of ''musta'' (cyperus rotundus), ''ativisha'' (aconitum heterophyllum), ''kutaja'' (holarrhena antidysenterica), ''chitraka'' (plumbago zeylanica) and ''bilva'' (Aegle marmelos) was found effective in management of ''atisara''.<ref>Sridhar B.N., Gopakumar K., Jaya N.

''Kutaja'' is widely used and first preferred drug in management of ''atisara''. It is mainly indicated in conditions of vitiated ''kapha-pitta'' and as a ''sangrahi'' (styptic) and ''shoshana'' (absorbent)(Charak sutra 25/40). In an in-vitro study, sterile double dilution aqueous extract of ''kutaja'' was found effective to inhibit growth of E. coli, staphylococcus aureus, salmonella Typhi.<ref>Shrivastava Niraj, Saxena Varsha. Antibacterial activity of Kutaja(Holarrhena antidysenterica Linn.) in childhood diarrhea:-In vitro study. The Pharma Innovation Journal 2015;4(4):97-99 .</ref> Thus ''kutaja'' can be used for all purpose in management of ''atisara''.

In a study on 43 patients of ulcerative colitis, Patel M.V.et.al observed 80% reduction in signs and symptoms of ulcerative colitis by Ayurvedic treatment. The treatment included ''udumbara kwatha'' combination of ''lodhra, musta, nagakeshara,mukta panchamrita rasa, kutaja ghana vati'' and ''udumbara kwatha basti''. It also highlighted disease modifying effect and reduction in use of steroidal drugs in the patients. <ref>Patel M.V.,Patel K.B., Gupta S.N.

Wall.), ''nagakeshara'' (Mesua ferrea L.), ''madhuyashti'' (Glycyrrhiza glabra L.), and ''amalaki'' (Emblica officinalis Gaertn.) powders, along with ''dadimashtaka choorna, shankha bhasma, mustarista'' and ''dhanyapanchaka kvatha'' showed significant response in case of ''pravahika'' (irritable bowel syndrome). <ref>Pooja BA, Bhatted S.
