An infection in any part of urinary system i.e., Kidney, bladder or urethra is called as urinary tract infection. UTI may be asymptomatic or symptomatic. Thus, the term Urinary tract infection encompasses a variety of clinical entities, including asymptomatic bacteriuria, cystitis, prostatitis and pyelonephritis. The Most common pathogenic organism in UTI is E. Coli (in 75-90 % of cases) followed in decreasing frequency of Klebsiella, staphylococci. Most of the bacteria enter the urinary tract from the fecal reservoir via ascent through the urethra in to the bladder. Objectives - To evaluate the efficacy of individual Dravyas of Mutravirechaniya Mahakashaya on isolated samples of E. coli, Klebsiella and staphylococci by disc diffusion method. Methods - The urine samples of patients having the pus cells more than five including other inclusion criteria have been collected for culture test and among that isolated sample of E. Coli, Klebsiella, Staphylococci were taken for sensitivity test by disc diffusion method, with disc prepared by Kashaya of individual Dravyas of Mutravirechaniya Mahakashaya. Result – The Sensitivity test conducted with Mutravirechaniya Mahakashaya Dravyas individually on isolated samples of E. coli, Klebsiella and Staphylococci were statistically not significant. Conclusion – The present study the Kashaya of Mutravirechaniya Mahakashaya Dravya has prepared by general rule of Kashayavidhi i.e., boiling the Kwatha Dravyas in sixteen times of water and reducing it into one by eighth. Each disc has made to absorb 10 mMl of Kashaya and allowed to dry. These discs were taken for sensitivity test. By changing the concentration levels of Kashaya preparation, the better result may obtain.
