The drugs are examined in respect of nature (natural composition), properties, action, habit, time and mode of collection, storage, processing dosage, indication for use, the constitution of patient and the effect on disorder whether eliminates it or pacifies it, any other drug of this type should have the same characters.[87]

The original source is disequilibrium of dhatus known by the emergence of signs of the disorder. Examination regarding this and the material cause of the disorder consists of the observation of the characters of their diminution or aggravation and also of those denoting curability, incuribility, mildness and severity of the disorder.[88]

Patient is the substratum of the act (karyadesha). Examination of the patient is conducted for the knowledge of life span or the degree of strength and morbidity.The variations in dosage and potency of prescribed drugs is according to the degree of morbidity and the degree of strength of patient, because if potent drug is administered suddenly by a physician having not been examined properly, it may kill the weak patient; the weak patients are not able to bear intensely potent drugs which are predominent in agni and vayu or cauterization, application of alkali and surgical operation. They may cause instantaneous death due to unbearable and over intense impulse of the drug. Keeping this fact in mind, the physician should treat the weak patient with drug which is not harmful, mild, delicate, and progressively strong in order, without complication and not creating any emergent condition, particularly ladies, because they have unstable, soft, bare and timid heart, they are mostly delicate, weak and dependent on others. On the other hand, the drugs having low potency and applied by one who has not been examined properly in strong patients having severe disorder becomes ineffective. Hence the patient should be examined in respect of constitution (prakruti), morbidty (vikruti), constitution of dhatu (sara), compactness (samhanana), measurement (pramana), suitability (satmya), psyche (sattva), power of intake and digestion of food (aharashakti), power of exercise (vyayamashakti) and age (vaya) for the knowledge of the degree of strength.[94]

Explanation regarding factors prakriti etc. are explained henceforth– the constitution (prakriti) associated with foetus (garbha) is determined by constitution of sperm and ovum, the time ( of conception) and status of health of uterus, diet and lifestyle of  mother (during pregnancy) and interaction of mahabhutas. Body humors (dosha), one or more than one which predominates in these factors gets attached to the foetus which is called physical or doshika constitution (dosha prakriti) of human beings which is emerged from the initial stage of foetus. Hence some persons are constitutionally having predominance of kapha(shleshma) some pittala, some vatala some having, combined dosha and some with balanced dhatus. Their characters are described here. [95]
