About 

Dusparsakadi Kashayam (also spelled Duspraśakādi Kaṣāyam) is a traditional Ayurvedic herbal decoction known for its powerful action on skin diseases, wounds, ulcers, and infections.
The formulation primarily contains Dusparsha (Tragia involucrata)—a herb famous for its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and wound-healing properties—along with other herbs that purify the blood and promote tissue regeneration.
