Abstract

The word “Anaemia” denotes “Lack of blood” and most common disorder of the blood. Among various types of anaemia, iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is the most familiar form in children and can be seen when blood cells themselves are small & at the same time there is low serum ferritin. IDA can be correlated with Pandu rog in Ayurveda. To prevent from various side effects of oral allopathic medicines an alternative way of ayurvedic herbo-mineral medicines should be used to treat IDA.

Keywords: Iron deficiency anaemia, Pandu rog, Lack of blood, Alternative way.
