It was developed more than 3000 years ago in India.
It's based on the belief that health and wellness depend on a delicate balance between the mind body and spirit.
Its main goal is to promote good health not fight disease But treatments may be geared toward specific health problems.
The different dosage forms available under Ayurveda system are followingLIQUID DOSAGE FORMS
SOLID DOSAGE FORMS.
SEMI- SOLID DOSAGE
Ayurveda believe every person is made of five basic elements found in the universe space, air, fire, water, and earth.
These combine in the human body to form three life forces or energies, called doshas.
They control how your body works.
They are Vata dosha (space and air)
Pitta dosha (fire and water)
Kapha dosha (water and earth).
Vata DoshaThose who practice Ayurveda believe this is the most powerful of all three doshas.
It controls very basic body functions like how cells divide.
It also controls your mind, breathing, blood flow, heart function and ability to get rid of waste through your intestines.
If vata dosha is your main life force, you're thought to be more likely to develop conditions like anxiety, asthma, heart disease, skin problems, and rheumatoid arthritis.
Pitta DoshaThis energy controls your digestion, metabolism (how well you break down foods), and certain hormones that are linked to your appetite.
Things that can disrupt it are eating sour or spicy foods and spending too much time in the sun.
If it's your main life force, you're thought to be more likely to have disease, heart disease, high blood pressure, and infections.
Kapha DoshaThis life force controls muscle growth, body strength and stability, weight, and your immune system.
You can disrupt it by sleeping during the day, eating too many sweet foods, and eating or drinking things that contain too much salt or water.
If it's your main life energy, practitioners believe you may develop asthma and other breathing disorders, cancer, diabetes, nausea after eating, and obesity.

Word Allopathy derived from the Greek word Allos
which means other different & Pathy means suffering
or disease.
In this system drugs tablets, capsules, injections, tonics
etc. are manufactured using synthetic chemicals and
chemicals derived from natural products like plants,
animals, minerals etc.
This system also uses modern equipment for diagnosis,
analysis, surgery etc.
13. Medicines or drugs of this system is often criticised for its
treatment of the symptoms rather than the cause of the
disease, harmful side effects of certain drugs and for being
out of poor people due to the high cost of drugs and
treatment.
Role of Pharmacognosy in Allopathy is that Natural
products isolated from plants/animals/marine/mineral acts
as the major source for Modern Medicine. Ex: Taxol from
Taxus, Digoxin from digitalis, morphine and codeine from
opium, vincristine from vinca.
14. Role of Pharmacognosy in UNANI
History of the Unani system credited to Greek philosopher
Hippocrates Aristotle Galen (384 - 322 BC) Greek -
Philosopher Father of natural history made valuable
contributions
From Greek it was carried to Persia (Iran) where it was
improved by Arabian physicians.
It aims at treating the cause of disease and not its
symptoms.
A thorough history of the patient is recorded in addition to
his pulse urine and stool examinations.
15. The diseased condition may be due to the imbalance between
humours
The drugs used: polyherbal formulations
Known as Arab medicine, Greco-Arab medicine, Loniah
medicine, Islamic medicine and also Oriental medicine.
Unani-medicines: Madar, fufal, Gilo, Kabab chini, Karanj,
Kulthi, Lodh, Qust, Sana, Tagar, Zeera, Siyah
16. Role of Pharmacognosy in SIDDHA
The term 'Siddha' means achievement and 'Siddhars' were saintly personalities, who
obtained expertise in medicine by practising Bhakti and Yoga.
It is a belief that Lord Shiva unfolded the knowledge of medicine to his wife Parvati
which was then passed to Siddhars.
The identification of diseases is done through pulse reading, the colour of the body, the
study of voice, urine examination, the status of the digestive system and the examination
of the tongue.
The literature on the Siddha system is mostly in Tamil.
Examples of some natural drugs used: are Abini (Papaver somniferum), Alari (Nerium
indicum), Ethi (Strychnos Nux-vomica), Gomathai (Datura stramonium), Haikalli
(Euphoribia nerifolia), Ratha polam (Aloe-barbadensis).
17. Role of Pharmacognosy in HOMEOPATHY
DEVELOPED in the 18th century: Sir Samuel Hahnemann, German
physician & chemist.
A theory based on the cause of the disease itself can be used for its
treatment.
He put forth the Law of Similars which says that like cures like
(Similae similibus curentur).
the choice of drug depends on symptoms and the clinical condition
of the patient.
18. Role of Pharmacognosy in CHINESE
It is also ancient dating back to the Yellow Emperor’s
Classic of Internal Medicine Huang Di Nei Jing-200 BC
& 100 AD.
based on the idea “all life is subject to natural laws”
The hypothesis includes two “yin and yang” theory
Says that everything in the universe consists of a dark
(yin) and light side (yang).
The five elements (i.e. water, metal, earth, fire and
wood).
19. They differ in diagnosis and treatment.
The elements: 5 phases indicate the process of
continuous movement of life.
These play a dynamic role in the Chinese system of
medicine like in making groups of herbal tastes and
parts of the body.
The treatment is done with herbs and polyherbs.
Ex. Ephedra sinica, Rheum palmatum, Carthamus
tinctorius, Clerodendron trichotomum, Panax
ginseng etc
