स्नेहनं शोधनं चैव द्विविधं नावनं मतम्| प्रतिमर्शस्तु नस्यार्थं करोति न च दोषावान्||११६||

[Types of navana (unctuous errhines)] Unctuous errhine (all errhines for that matter) is of two types- oleating and purificatory. Pratimarsha (low dose unctuous errhine) serves both the purpose and does not produce any ill effects.
