Ishali (Nuskha No. 14)

Ishali (Nuskha No. 14) is a specialized classical Unani herbal powder manufactured by Dawakhana Hakim Ajmal Khan. The name is derived from the Arabic/Urdu word "Ishal," which refers to diarrhea. This formulation is specifically engineered to treat acute and chronic disorders of the lower digestive tract.

In Unani medicine, diarrhea is often viewed as the body’s attempt to expel morbid humors or a sign of intestinal weakness (Zauf-e-Am'aa). Ishali works as a powerful Qabiz (Astringent) and Habis (Styptic) agent. It helps in firming up loose stools, reducing intestinal inflammation, and soothing the gastric mucosa. It is an essential remedy for those suffering from loose motions caused by food sensitivities, seasonal changes, or digestive sluggishness.
