''Udaka'' in Sanskrit translates as fluid and ''udara'' refers to the distension of the abdomen, put together the term ''udakodara'' means distension of the abdomen due to accumulation of the fluid. According to Sanskrit literature, the word ''dakodara'' is formed by the removal of initial letter u from the word ''udakodara''. Thus, formed word ''dakodara'' also give the same meaning of ''udakodara''.<ref name="ref34">Agnivesha.

Water intoxication and edema are the two distinct clinical implications of over hydration. Excessive intake of plain water without adequate solutes causes abnormal increase in extracellular fluid with deficient sodium. This in turn causes movement of fluid into the cell to maintain the salt balance. Thus, resulting in cellular edema which in turn causes the clinical manifestation of water intoxication and it is a fatal condition. Contrary to this over hydration with adequate intake of sodium leads to increase in the fluid within the interstitial compartment due to excess of isotonic volume excess. The water does not diffuse into the cells as the solutes hold the water in the interstitial fluid compartment. Thus this will result in the edema. This edema is due to over hydration and is comparable to ''jalodara''.
