- W2129050189 abstract "Folk medicine is a unique blend of medicine practiced in Bangladesh, which contains components and ideas of individual practitioners (known as Kavirajes), as well as formulations borrowed from other more systematized forms of traditional medicine like Ayurveda and Unani. Because every Kaviraj follows his or her unique formulations, surveys need to be carried out among as many practitioners as possible to get a comprehensive picture of this form of practice. Kavirajes mainly practice in the villages and small towns, although a good number can be observed in the cities also, whose clients mainly include the poorer residents as well as rural folk who have come to the cities. The objective of the present study was to conduct an ethnomedicinal survey of a folk medicinal practitioner in Dhopakandi village in Faridpur district, Bangladesh. Interviews were conducted of the Kaviraj with the help of a semi-structured questionnaire and the guided field-walk method. The Kaviraj was observed to use a total of 33 medicinal plants distributed into 23 families in his formulations. The formulations were used for treatment of a diverse number of diseases like fever, helminthiasis, sexual disorders, poisoning, gastrointestinal disorders, excessive hair loss, heart disorders, mental disorders, kidney stones, jaundice, respiratory tract disorders, liver disorders, paralysis, skin disorders and pain. Available pharmacological reports on a number of the plant species used by the Kaviraj showed that the Kavirajes’ choice of plants can be scientifically validated to quite some extent. This suggests that the plants used by the folk medicinal practitioners for treatment of diseases should not be ignored by the scientific community; instead they can be used for more scientific studies leading to possible discovery of new and effective medicines." @default.
