1. In jata satvakusltta (decadent leprosy).
Drinking of a decoction of the panchanga of neem is beneficial in curing decadent leprosy.
(It is important to note that the reputed classical authors of Ayurveda often mention specific stages and/or types of the diseases when their drugs act best. Modem authors trying to assess these claims in their own light and according to their own specifications should take into consideration these details of mentioning as well. For, a drug could very well act in some specific aspects of the malady only and not in all conditions).
2. In surameha (a kind of diabetes).
Drinking of a decoction of the bark of the root is prescribed in this type of diabetes.
3. In amrushika (dandruff and dryness of the head).
Washing the head with neem water (viz cold water in which tender leaves of neem are kept soaked over night or the hot water for bathing, in which mature leaves of neem are added even before commencing the heating of water) will be highly effective in both of these minor maladies of the head.
4. In padmtni kantaka (a kind of leprosy).
This (probably refers to marks left on the surface of the body looking as if created by pricking with lotus spines) may be filled up (viz by a process technically called utsadana or raising up) by appropriate drugs. One such drug is a decoction prepared from the bark of neem and amaltas {Cassia fistula Linn).
5. In dahajvara (inflammatory fever).
For this, pound the leaves of neem well, drop Uiem in an adequate quantity of water and chum this now with the help of a churner continuously for some time till enough froth gets collected at the surface of the water. Administer a little quantity of this froth along with honey to the patient. He will get a vomit and the burning will get mitigated.
6. In kapha Janya trishna (thirst due to the vitiation of kapha).
This will get quenched if a vomiting is induced by orally giving freshly extracted juice (svarasa) of neem after warming it up slightly.
