Kalmeghasava is a classical fermented Ayurvedic liquid (asava) made by Virgo UAP Pharma in which Kalmegha (Andrographis paniculata) is the dominant dravya, combined with Guduchi, Katuki, Kutaja, Saptaparna and classically processed iron (Loha Churna), and matured with its own naturally generated alcohol (not more than 12% v/v). In classical Ayurveda it is a bitter Jwara and Deepana-Pachana preparation, traditionally valued in the context of seasonal fevers and digestive fire. Andrographis paniculata has itself been reviewed in the research literature (peer-reviewed review, 2011 — PMID 21438648).
About Kalmeghasava
Kalmeghasava is a classical fermented Ayurvedic tonic (asava) built around Kalmegha — Andrographis paniculata, the intensely bitter herb also called Bhunimba, ‘the neem of the ground’. Manufactured by Virgo UAP Pharma and supplied by Riddhish Herbals, it follows the classical Ayurveda Sara Sangraha (A.S.S.) reference printed on the pack.
Around Kalmegha the formula gathers Guduchi, Katuki, Kutaja Tvak, Saptaparna and Sarpunkha, warm spices, and a small amount of classically processed iron (Loha Churna), with Dhataki flowers driving the fermentation. Because it carries a classically processed mineral, it is taken on a physician's advice.
Traditional Ayurvedic Importance
In classical Ayurveda, Kalmegha (Andrographis paniculata) is a foremost Tikta (bitter) Jwaraghna and Deepana dravya, and Kalmeghasava is described in the Ayurveda Sara Sangraha in the context of Jwara (seasonal fevers) and Agnimandya, where kindling Agni is the goal.
Katuki (Picrorhiza kurroa), Kutaja (Holarrhena antidysenterica) and Saptaparna (Alstonia scholaris) add to the bitter, Deepana-Pachana character; Loha Churna is the classically processed mineral. Dhataki (Woodfordia fruticosa) is the Sandhana dravya that drives the natural fermentation.
