While correlating Dravyaguna Vigyan principles with modern pharmacology, several critical factors need to be considered to ensure a comprehensive understanding. Firstly, it is important to examine the concept of Rasa (taste), Virya (potency), and Vipaka (post-digestive effect) in relation to the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs. Additionally, understanding the Prabhava (special effect) of a drug and its correlation with the mechanism of action at molecular levels in modern pharmacology may provide deeper insights.

An example of this could be the correlation between the concept of Virya and the drug's therapeutic effect at cellular levels. Exploring cross-cultural pharmacological terms and standardizing terminologies for both systems will also be advantageous.

I wonder how drug regulatory authorities view and regulate such correlations between Ayurveda and modern medicine.

Standardizing terminologies is indeed crucial for unifying these two fields. Has there been any move towards this by scientific communities?

I believe understanding the molecular basis of Ayurvedic principles could revolutionize our approach to pharmacology.
