Among the drugs of which bark is utilized as medicine, tilvaka is the best virechaka dravya (purgative) (Su.Su.44/3). It has also been described in the context of sandhaaneeya (healing effect on wounds), pureeshasangrahaneeya (antidiarrheal),  shonithasthaapana dashemaani ganas (hemostatic) and twagasava (fermented prepration from bark). Charaka mentions this in the context of vatavyadhi (Ca. Chi. 28/82). Tilvaka is also told in the context of kashaayaskandha. Tilvaka ghee has been advised in the context of vidradhi (abcess), gulma (abdominal lump) and pittavidagdha (acid dyspepsia) conditions. In hiccups, tilvaka ash is administered with honey (Su. Ut. 50/21).
