Even with modern advancement of instruments and procedures, the fear regarding the surgical procedures has not come down. Therefore, anxiolytics on pre-operative day and prior to surgery are important. Cittodvega explained in Ayurvedic classics can be correlated with pre operative anxiety. In this regard Sarpagandha and Jatamansi have been evaluated as Anxiolytic pre-operative medication. 30 Patients of 20–70 years of age group were selected and divided into 2groups. Group-A received Sarpagandha vati 1gm previous day of surgery and on the day of surgery and Group-B received Jatamansi kwath 40 ml one day before surgery and on the day of surgery. Both the drugs are proved to be anxiolytic. When compared in between groups, Jatamansi kwatha showed better results than Sarpagandha vati in reducing the pre Operative anxiety. The drug Jatamansi is effective pre medication in comparison with Sarpagandha.
