  drugs, compound herbal and herb-mineral
  combinations, may be rationally used to combat
  such conditions. It is evident from above
  description that the Ayurveda has an enormous
  knowledge of mode of spread, nature of
  microorganism and how to combat the disease long
  back. The krimis, bhutas, grahas, rakshas and
  their agantuka nidana are all microorganisms may
  be virus, bacterial and fungal organisms.

Charaka has given three main processes for
treating the krimi rogas

• These are Nidana parivarjana (to avoid the
  factors responsible for the production of
  disease)
• Apakarshana (removal of krimi from the affected
  site) and
• Prakriti Vighata (changing the environment, which

modalities are categorized

the Quality of Life providing strength or
resistance against the disease such as Jvara
hara (anti pyretic) Sotha hara
(anti-inflammatory) Vedanta hara (analgesics)
Kasa hara (anti tussive) Swasa hara (anti
dyspnoeic) Atisara hara (anti diarrheal) etc.,
