ABSTRACT
In Agrah varanan by Charaka in sutrasthana chapter - 25, Rajyakshama has been called as ‘ROGA SAMUHANAMA’ which means the ‘Group of Diseases’. Due to its high rate of complexity, it has been given various synonyms like ROGARAJA by Charaka and ROGARATA by Sushruta. In this paper we present a general overview of introduction, pathogenesis, diagnosis and methods of RAJYAKSHAMA with respect to pulmonary tuberculosis. In presenting this review, we searched the various websites of international institutions like WHO and databases like PubMed, ResearchGate. This review has been written with an intention to develop a co-relation between the classical disease RAJYAKSHAMA and the present disease pulmonary tuberculosis since the clinical picture of both the diseases is quite similar.
