INTRODUCTIONDarunaka is a kaphavataja condition featured with itching,
dryness, & scaling of the skin over the scalp region.
Ayurveda explains dandruff by the name darunaka,
included under kshudra roga(sushrutha) and kapala
roga(vagbhata)
Dandruff is an irritative disease of the scalp in which
shedding of dead tissue from the scalp with itching
sensation is considered as the cardinal feature.
It is the most common cause for hair loss. It is more of a
social problem as a person with Darunaka is quite likely to
feel down on the social ring.

OBJECTIVES Even though Shiravyadha is the prime line of treatment, as it
is parasurgical procedure so it is not practised much.
The current study is to evaluate the efficacy of Shiravyadha
followed by Chitrakadya taila Shiroabhyanga in the
management of Darunaka.
To find a fast and effective solution of Darunaka with less
reoccurrence rate.

CONCLUSION• Ayurveda plays an important role in treating Darunaka where
the modern medication generally fails to achieve a significant
result with less reoccurrence rate.
• Shiravyadha followed by Shiroabhyanga with Chitrakadya
taila provided better relief (66%) in all over symptoms of
darunaka especially in Kandu, Rookshata, and Twak
sphutana.
• In the present clinical study, non reoccurrence rate was found
to be 67% thereby suggesting its success in effectively
managing the condition.
