Kiratatikta (Swertia chirayita (Roxb.) H. Karst.) is a herb with diverse medicinal properties. Name of the plant itself signifies that it is more of bitter taste and this bitterness is due to presence of different active principles like Amarogentin, Swertiamarin and Mangiferin etc. By these active principles it has shown pharmacological activities like Anticancer, and CNS depressant Antiviral activity. Kiratatikta is popularly known for its traditional uses in Jwara, Raktapitta, pidaka and many more. As this herb is now endangered species, another herb called Kalamegha (Androghaphis paniculata) which is having similar properties like Kiratatiktha is being used as substitute. Some authors mention it as adulterant.
I. INTRODUCTION
Kiratatiktha botanically identified as Swertia chirayita (Roxb.) H. Karst belongs to Gentianaceae family. In India, 40 species of Swertia are recorded [1]. S. chirayita was first described in 1814 by Roxburgh under the name of Gentiana chyrayta2. This ethnomedicinal herb is known mostly for its bitter taste caused by the presence of different chemical constituents such as amarogentin- most bitter compound isolated till date, swerchirin, swertiamarin, and other bioactive compounds that are directly associated with human health welfare[3]. Its widespread uses in traditional medicine have resulted in over-exploitation from the natural habitat and it is now on the verge of extinction in the wild. So now it is a critically endangered medicinal herb that grows at high altitudes in the sub-temperate regions of the Himalayas between 1200 and 2100 m altitudes from Kashmir to Bhutan [4]
The references about the plant Kiratatikta is found in brihatrayi especially in Ganas and some of therapeutic usage have been mentioned. We can see eloborated more description in many Nighantus. The herb Kiratatikta is popularly familiar with names like Bhunimba. The present article intend to review in detail about Kiratatikta mentioned in ayurvedic classics along with detailed information available in different sources.
