About
Useerasavam (also spelled Ushirasavam) is a fermented Ayurvedic formulation (Asava) primarily used for cooling, purifying, and strengthening the blood. It is one of the most effective tonics for bleeding disorders, urinary tract problems, and Pitta-related ailments.
The chief ingredient, Ushira (Vetiveria zizanioides), is known for its cooling, hemostatic (stops bleeding), and refreshing properties. The formulation balances Pitta and Rakta (blood) doshas, making it highly beneficial in managing bleeding piles, nosebleeds, menorrhagia, and burning sensations.
