| Abstract: | Shata–dhauta–ghrita (SDG) is an Ayurvedic preparation, commonly prescribed for treatment of wounds, burns, chicken pox, scars, herpes, leprosy and other skin diseases. It is prepared by washing clarified butterfat (cow ghee) one hundred times with water. Having potential as a topical product for the treatment of skin diseases, it needs evaluation in modern scientific parameters. The study was carried out to evaluate the changes taking place while washing cow ghee one hundred times which makes it an important topical product. |
