#In a study, 60 vishamajwara patients were selected. Out of which 24 patients were positive for malarial parasite test. The trial drug, Indrayavadi Vati was given in the dosage of 2-6gm for 7 days. After treatment, complete relief was observed in symptoms like headache, vomiting, nausea and rigors. Malarial parasite test was also negative after the treatment.<ref>Dal D K: Vishamajvara (malaria) chikitsatmakaadhyayana, Department of Kayachikitsa and Panchakarma, IPGT&RA, Jamnagar.
