Varti Kalpana in Ayurvedic Pharmaceutics : A Classical Review

Author(s) Dr. Sneha Purushottam Navandar, Prof. Anjana Dwivedi, Dr, Mandeep Jaiswal
Country India
Abstract Ayurveda, the ancient science of life, possesses a highly developed pharmaceutical branch known as Bhaishajya Kalpana, which deals with the preparation, preservation, and administration of medicinal formulations. Among the various dosage forms described in Ayurvedic classics, Varti Kalpana occupies a unique place because of its specialized local therapeutic applications. Varti refers to wick-shaped medicated preparations prepared by triturating powdered drugs with suitable liquid media and rolling them into elongated forms for administration through body orifices such as the eye, rectum, vagina, nose, or wound tracts. Classical texts such as the Charaka Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, Ashtanga Hridaya, Sharangadhara Samhita, and Bhaishajya Ratnavali have described numerous Varti formulations along with their indications and methods of preparation.
Varti Kalpana demonstrates the advanced pharmaceutical understanding of ancient Ayurvedic scholars regarding local drug delivery systems, targeted therapeutic action, and prolonged retention of medicine at the site of pathology. This review aims to elaborate the concept, historical background, classification, pharmaceutical methods, therapeutic significance, and contemporary relevance of Varti Kalpana in detail.
