Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (hymn-level attribution varies by Anukramaṇī; commonly treated as Atharvan/Angiras-type medical speech)
Devata: Bhaiṣajya / the archetypal Physician (often conceptually aligned with divine healing agency, e.g., Aśvins/Indra in broader Vedic healing idiom)
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (probable; verse is in the common Atharvanic anuṣṭubh cadence)
