Abstract: The Vividhaśitapītiya Adhyāya of Charaka Saṃhitā Sūtrasthāna explains the principles of nutrition, tissue nourishment (Dhātu Poshana), and the concept of Sara–Kitta Vibhajana. It also forms the theoretical foundation for the understanding of Raktapradoshaja Vikāra, diseases arising from vitiation of Rakta Dhātu. Among them, Dadru Kuṣṭha (Tinea corporis) is a common dermatological manifestation associated with Raktadushti and Kapha-Pitta vitiation. The present article explores the pathogenesis of Dadru Kuṣṭha through the lens of Vividhaśitapītiya Adhyāya and evaluates the therapeutic potential of Aragvadha Patra Lepa and Aragvadha Patra Lepa with its Churna in its management. Keywords: Vividhaasitapitiya Adhyaya, Raktapradosaja Vikara, Dadru Kustha, Aragvadha Patra Churna, Aragvadha Patra Lepa
