Although conventional entity of all of those diseases are not well established. Understanding of such diseases in conventional parlance is essential for an evidence based approach of <em>Ayurveda</em>. <em>Prameha </em>is one of such disease that is most widely described in almost all classical <em>Ayurvedic </em>texts but not well established in conventional parlance. The disease <em>Premeha</em>, has been named on its major clinical signs <em>Avila-Prabhuta-Mutra </em>(Excess and contaminated urine). In ancient text compiled by <em>Acharya Charaka, Acharya Sushruta, Acharya Vagbhatta </em>and many others, we get detailed description about this disease. <em>Meda Dusti </em>is considered as a key pathological phenomenon behind the development of <em>Prameha</em>. A conventional entity of this disease is still now doubtful. This review aims at scanning of both <em>Ayurvedic </em>and conventional medical literatures as well as published research articles to explore the basic concept of <em>Prameha </em>in conventional parlance.</p> ER -
