      <abstract>
        <p>Hypertension is one of the leading cause of global burden of disease. Hypertension doubles the risk of cardiovascular diseases, including coronary heart disease, congestive heart failure, ischemic and haemorrhagic stroke, renal failure and peripheral arterial disease. In industrialized societies, blood pressure increases steadily during the first two decades of life. Approximately 13-15% of total deaths and 92 million disability adjusted life years worldwide were attributable to high blood pressure in 2001.1  In Ayurveda there is no mentioning of  any disease which can be directly correlated with the hypertension, but based on the its presentation we can correlate hypertension with Raktagata Vata. Though there are a number of anti hypertensive medicine available, but in this era of health consciousness there is demand for herbal or herbomineral formulations which can be safely used in the management of hypertension. To analyse the effect Ayurvedic management of hypertension with Kamadudha Rasa, Amalaki Rasayan and Erand Bhrusht Haritaki  in the effective management of Primary (essential) hypertension. This was a single case study. In this study a diagnosed patient of essential hypertension was taken. There was significant improvement in the clinical sign and symptoms.</p>
