Ayurveda, the Indian medical wisdom is not an incomplete knowledge,its approach towards human being is holistic and extensive. It’s more a health oriented than disease oriented medical system in the biosphere. The theory of Allergy in Ayurveda is concealed under different headings and varied contexts. The articulate and distinguishable descriptions are observed in the contexts of Pratisyaya, Kasa, Swasa, Udarda/Seeta pitta and Kushtha (certain skin disorders). Scope of this paper is limited to deal with allergic respiratory disorders i.e. Pratisyaya, Kasa and Swasa. These three disorders are those which occupy the major amount of population and the patients of these disorders pay frequent visits to doctors of conventional medicine and get inadequate results. That is the reason why these patients approach Ayurvedic physicians for a safe and effective regimen which can completely reverse their allergic nature and thus relieving acute boats of disease.
