*''Danti''(Baliospermum montanum (Willd.) and ''dravanti'' (Croton tiglium L.) are strong purgative drugs with ''tikshna'' (sharply acting), ''ashukari'' (quickly acting), ''vikasi'' ( immediately getting distributed in body) properties. Roots of these plants are used for therapeutic purpose after purification. These drugs are mainly indicated in ''gulma''(abdominal lumps), ''udara'' (abdominal diseases including ascitis), and ''udavarta''. These drugs can liquefy ''kapha-pitta dosha'' and expel them out.

*The consistency of ''sneha'' (unctuous drug) shall be changed according to its route of administration. ''Kharapaka sneha'' (dense) is used for the ''abhyanaga'' (unction). ''Mridupaka sneha'' (soft/thin) is ideal for administration through the nasal route (''nasya''). ''Madhyama paka sneha'' (medium) is preferred both oral administration (''pana'') as well as for enema (''basti'').

Polynyms are used for the identification of the plants, to know their qualities and the therapeutic actions. C''hitropachitra, sambari, pratyakshreni, chanda'' are not available in some of the original texts. These different names of both the plants are mentioned in Bhavaprakash Nighantu (Pg.no 399, Guduchyadi varga) in the names of ''laghudanti'' and ''dravanti'' as ''dantidvaya''. The Baliospermum montanum Muell-Arg. and Croton tigilium L. of Euphorbiaceae family are considered as the botanical source respectively. The seeds of the C. tiglium are also considered as ''jayapala'' in this text.( verse 3)
