Distinct feature of the test is, all formulations has multiple drugs, actions and benefits. It is very important to note that all formulations are paka based Avaleha, Guda, sarkara, Rasakriya, Khanda, Phanita & Guggulu preparations. Such a paramount text has been translated to english systematically with the consideration of multiple angles of literary research. Present translated book has two components grossly. First component deals with prologomenon on Brhatpakavali and persuasion on Paka which gives brief outline about the text where as the second component deals with the english translation of 71 formulations systematically one after another.
