Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Indian Kinotree (Pterocarpus marsupium), also known as Vijaysar, has been used in traditional Indian (Ayurvedic) medicine for various health conditions, particularly diabetes. Its application in the treatment or support of bedwetting (nocturnal enuresis) is based primarily on traditional uses rather than robust scientific evidence. Historical Ayurvedic texts sometimes mention Vijaysar as a general tonic for urinary issues, with some traditional practitioners recommending its use to help reduce excessive urination or to support bladder health. However, the references to bedwetting specifically are rare and not well documented in major classical Ayurvedic compendia. There are no high-quality clinical studies, animal trials, or pharmacological investigations that directly validate the efficacy of Indian Kinotree for nocturnal enuresis. Any use for bedwetting is therefore based on anecdotal or traditional approaches rather than scientific validation. In summary, while Indian Kinotree has a long tradition of use for urinary and metabolic conditions in Ayurveda, its specific use for bedwetting is only weakly supported by tradition, and there is no substantial scientific evidence to support its efficacy for this indication.
