Lord Dhanvantari is the God of Ayurveda. Ayurveda flourished during the time of Buddha. In this time Ayurvedic Practitioners usually used Mercuric - Sulphur combination based medicines.

After emerging victorious at the Kalinga War, Emperor Ashoka influence by Buddhist Teachings banned any bloodshedding. Therefore many of the Ayurvedic Practitioners who were using surgery for the practice of Ayurveda, left surgery and took to herbs for treating various ailments. Thus came a new form of Ayurveda which is being used even to this date. During the regime of Chandragupta Maurya, Ayurveda was part of the mainstream Indian Medical Practices.
