Amlapittantak Lauh

Amlapittantak Lauh

Amlapittantak Lauh (also spelled Amlapittantak Loh) is a classical Ayurvedic herbo-mineral medicine specifically formulated to treat Amlapitta—the Ayurvedic term for hyperacidity, acid reflux, and heartburn.

The name translates literally to “The Ender of Acid-Pitta,” and it is unique because it combines cooling herbs with processed iron to address both the symptoms of acidity and the weakness (anemia) that sometimes follows chronic digestive issues.

 Key Product Details

• Quantity: Usually available in bottles of 40 or 60 Tablets.

• Core Ingredients:

  • Lauh Bhasma & Mandur Bhasma: Purified Iron and Iron Oxide ash that provide strength and help with mucosal repair.

  • Abhrak Bhasma: Processed Mica, used to balance Vata and provide a protective layer to the stomach.

  • Amla (Amalaki): The primary herbal ingredient, known for its potent cooling and antacid properties.

  • Kajjali: A combination of purified Mercury and Sulfur that acts as a catalyst to speed up the healing process.

Primary Health Benefits

This formulation is highly effective for “Pitta-dominant” digestive disorders:

• Hyperacidity & Heartburn: Quickly neutralizes excess stomach acid and relieves the burning sensation in the chest (Hrit-Daha) and throat.

• Acid Reflux (GERD): Helps prevent the upward movement of acid (sour belching) and treats nausea or vomiting caused by acidity.

• Gastritis: Soothes the inflamed lining of the stomach and helps heal minor peptic ulcers.

• Improves Hemoglobin: Because it contains Lauh (Iron), it is excellent for patients who have become weak or anemic due to chronic digestive troubles.

• Digestion & Appetite: Unlike modern antacids which can sometimes slow down digestion, this helps stimulate the “Digestive Fire” (Agni) while keeping the acid in check.
