Aacharya Kashyap has accepted the involvement of three Doshas in Amlapitta while Madhavkara has accepted the dominance of Pitta in this disease. Aacharya Charak has not mentioned Amlapitta as separate disease but described in Grahani as one of its Lakshana. The signs and symptoms of Amlapitta are very similar to gastritis or Hyperacidity. According to conventional medical science the most common causes of gastritis are H.pylori infections and prolonged use of Non- Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Dings (NSAIDS). It is quite common disease prevailing all over the world.
