Limitations and Future Research Direction for Agadtantra

Abstract

This research review explores the limitations and future research directions for Agada Tantra, the ancient Indian science of toxicology. Agada Tantra, rooted in Ayurveda, provides valuable insights into the classification, effects, and treatment of poisons. However, it faces several limitations, including the lack of standardized protocols, limited empirical evidence, and the need for integration with modern scientific methods. This review aims to identify these limitations and propose future research directions to enhance the understanding and application of Agada Tantra in contemporary toxicology.
