A detailed literature survey of the <em>Bhava</em> <em>Prakasha</em> <em>Nighantu, Dhanvantari Nighantu, </em>and<em> Kaiyadeva Nighantu </em>has been conducted to explore the probable mode of action based on <em>Rasa Panchaka </em>i.e.,<em> Rasa, Guna, Virya, Vipaka </em>and<em> Karma</em> of drugs of <em>Swasahara Mahakashaya</em>. Most of the drugs in the <em>Swasahara Mahakashasya</em> are <em>Kashaya Tikta Rasa, Ushna, Laghu Guna</em> and has <em>Kapa-Vata Hara</em> property and <em>Swasa- Kasahara Karma</em> also which will hamper the pathology of <em>Swasaroga</em>.
