As is apparent from Table-V, “Magic Drop” produced a very satisfactory response in 50% of the patients suffering from hepatic disorders where as about 45% showed moderated to good improvement. A search of the Literature revealed but the various constituents of “Magic Drop” individually have been acclaimed to have beneficial effects on various hepatic disorders. Thus citrus medica has boon cited by Daljit Singh (2) and Nadkarni (3) as a medicine for liver diseases. Efficacy of Sarji in treatment of malfunctions of the liver has been documented in Indian Materia medica (4)and by Chopra (5). Barati has been mentioned to cause significant improvement in liver problems by Daljit Singh (2) Nadkarni (3) and Chopra (5).
The Preparation of “Magic Drop” which includes all of the above three ingredients thus should ovlnco no surprise because of its high efficacy in treatment of hepatic disorders. Moreover, during the study it was observed that the medicine was accepted by patients of all age groups and sexes without any toxicity. This is an Important factor since some of the available medicines contain bitter herbal glycosides, not easily accepted by some patients. As Table-V shows, approximately 5% of patients showed no response to “Magic Drop”. It should be mentloned here that longer treatment in the improved patients may lead to almost complete recovery from existing hepatic disorders. |
