Abstract

In the wider dimension of prevalence of RTIs throughout the globe, and lack of  effective, safe and economic management, the need for exploring alternative  medical systems was increasingly emphasized. A concept research was  conducted to investigate Ayurvedic concepts for RTIs using comparative  literature from Ayurveda and modern medicine.The results show a fair ground  to understand the factors undergoing RTIs and throw a great promise to  integrate the Ayurvedic concepts with the ongoing interventionist strategies to  address RTIs effectively.
