  • Abstract:
  • Kalka (Herbal Paste) is one of the potent dosage forms useful in Ayurvedic pharmaceutics and therapeutics. Its description is found scattered in Ancient Ayurvedic classics. Here an attempt is made to review Kalka critically from the Ayurvedic classic Sushruta Samhita. Data research was carried out by following special criteria containing internal or external administration, diseases, wound healing, cosmetology etc. Alot of references were found regarding utility of Kalka in various procedures recommended in management of different diseases. Sushruta Samhita has introduced distinctive formulations of Kalka along with the way or mode of its applications in different diseased conditions. Present review refects the importance of both potency and applicability of Kalka Kalpana and the classic Sushruta Samhita for its great contribution.
