Extraction notes
- Written अजश्रृंग in the verse and glossed मेढसिंगी by the commentary. Named only as a member of the kapha-destroying group.
- The verse has श्रृंगी; the commentary gives मेढासिंगी, so it is not mapped to karkatashringi (PDF 466, verse 86).
- The verse writes विषाण; the commentary gives मेढासिंगी.
- From glossary entry अ 21; the Marathi column also gives काकडसिंगी.
- Merged from ingredient_ajashringi.
