π· CONCLUSION BANNER
"Rasayana therapy, rooted in Charaka Samhita (Chi.1) and corroborated by Sushruta & Vagbhata, provides a scientifically rational, long-term disease-modifying approach to Tamaka Shwasa. By nourishing Pranavaha Srotas, enhancing Vyadhikshamatva (immunomodulation), and restoring Dhatu equilibrium, formulations such as Chyawanprasha, Agastyaharitaki, and Pippali Rasayana significantly reduce attack frequency, improve quality of life, and offer a safe alternative to long-term steroid dependency β especially relevant in the Kaumarabhritya context."
