Kustha is the one, which causes vitiation as well as discoloration of the skin. All the skin diseases in Ayurveda have been classified under the broad heading of Kustha which are further categorized in to Mahakustha and Kṣudrakustha. Dadru is included in both categories due to its quick invading nature. As per modern perspective disease Dadru comes under ' Superficial fungal infections of the skin' or Tinea infections. According to Acharyas, Lepa is equally or more effective in skin disease rather than internal medicaments alone. That’s why both preparations are used for present study. Aim of present clinical study is to study the efficacy of Tiladi churna &Pootikadi lepa in the management of Dadru on clinical parameters and to establish the protocol.
