Ashmari (Urinary calculus) is the disease of Mutravaha Srotas (Urinary system) as described in Sushruta Samhita; which is included in the Mahagada (Incurable disorder). In modern urology practice the different methods for treatment of urinary calculus were developed due to its high recurrence. So the main aim of study was to treat as well as to avoid the recurrence in the Mootrashmari. In the study kshara was selected due to its multiple properties Chedana (Excision), Bhedana (Incision), Lekhana (Scraping), Shodhana (Cleaning), Ropana (Healing) etc. This Ananadyoga [paneeya Kshara (oral alkali preparation)] contains extract of 5 ingredients, which were Sesamum indicum, Achyranthus aspera, Butea frondosa, Musa sapientum and Emblica officinale. Total 20 patients were treated with Ananadyoga in extract form of 250mg capsule twice daily for 60 days.

Out of 24 stones, 16 stones had reduced in their size considerably and 8 stones remained unchanged in their size. Lastly it has been concluded that kshara of five ingredients (Anandyoga) showed good result in the treatment of Mootrashmari without untoward effect.
