Krimiraja capsules were issued to the open market for the first time in 1949. Dr. Liveris Amaratunga did so with the pure intention of curing people using his knowledge in medical science. This medicine is prescribed for all types of stomach disorders, such as indigestion, worm trouble, puffing of the stomach, vomiting Nausea and loss of appetite as an efficacious medicine. Moreover Dr. Amaratunga who hails from the generation of doctors of Amaratunga of Kiriwaththuduwa has produced medicinal oil for head diseases and windy troubles.

Dr. Amaratunga’s main object is not to make money but to serve the people as a good Samaritan. Medicines produced by this medical centre became popular among people within a short period.
