Abstract :

Suvarnaprashana has been said to be very effective in promoting Vyadhikshamatva by acharyaKashyapa in Ayurveda. By going with this idea, we had started Suvarnaprashana ,at L.R.P. Ayurvedic College Islampur, 8yrs ago. We made a survey of children who have recurrent URTI coming to our Suvarnaprashana camp on PushyaNakshatra by considering the aim–To evaluate the efficacyof Suvarnaprashana in preventing recurrent episodes of upper respiratory tract infections in children with the help of history taking. A survey studyof 100 children (0 to 16 yrs) having recurrent episodes of URTI infections were grouped as A and B. children from group A received Suvarnaprashana for 8 months and children from group B did not received Suvarnaprashan. During this period if any URTI episode occured in childrens from both groups, an appropriate treatment was given. After comlition of this study we can conclude Suvarnaprashana is effective after long period in recurrent URTI
