तत्र प्रतिलोममालिम्पेत् | प्रतिलोमे हि सम्यगौषधमवतिष्ठतेऽनुप्रविशति रोमकूपान् स्वेदवाहिभिश्च सिरामुखैर्वीर्यं प्राप्नोति ||४||

sanskrit

medicinal plaster should be applied in the opposite direction to the local hair growth (Pratiloma). When applied in this manner, the plaster adheres firmly to the affected area and naturally permeates through the hair follicles and sweat ducts, thereby delivering its potency and efficacy.
