Uses:
Ayurvedic Pharmacetical uses:
In Ayurveda it is believed that man suffers from diseases mainly because of imbalance occurs in the amount of whatever be the elements to be found in human body. Gomutra[cow-urine distillate], notably of Indian cow with raised hump known to be suryaketu nari[nerve], has all those elements which are found in the human body, and therefore it has the property of bringing the proper balance in them, and thus curing the diseases.

This consists of Aurium Hydroxide [AuOH], or Suvarna chhar according to Ayurveda, which is why it is highly antibiotic and antitoxin and, therefore, destroys most inveterate of viral infection. And, as also, it is very effective in the cure of Aids and Cancer. Notably, USA has even granted patent to the distillate of Indian cow urine [US Pat. No 6410059 and 6896907] as a medicine for cancer.  So also, the patients suffering from old and acute diabities and living on insulin, they can be cured by the consumption of gomutra because of enzymes to be found in it in ample quantity. Besides, being a source of digestion, these enzymes provide immunity to the body to the commonly infesting diseases.

Where owing to the vitamin B, Lactose [C6H12O6] and Potassium it contains, it increases vigor, vitality and reduces mental tension and, as also, brings calm of the mind; then, the elements like Ammonia, Nitrogen, sulphur, iron, sodium and calcium collectively purify the blood and stabilize the red corpuscles to be found in it; nourish the bones; maintains the working capacity of the body; protects the lungs from infections.

Yet this is not all. It acts as an anti-virus because of Mangenese and Carbolic acid, which cure body of wounds and protect it from deadly gangrene. And due to Nitrogen, Urea [CoNH2], Uric Acid and Phosphate it protects body from urinal ailments.

In Ayurveda, Gomutra is claimed to be helpful in the treatment of leprosy, abdominal colic pain,   bloating, and cancer. A mixture of gomutra, Triphala, and cow milk is used for the treatment of anaemia. It is also used in the treatment of fever by mixing it with black pepper, yoghurt, and ghee (ghrita). A mixture of gomutra, neem bark, vasaka bark, kurilo bark, kaner leaves is also used medicinally. A mixture of gomutra and dharuharidra is used for epilepsy.  A study from Mandsaur has claimed that it may also benefit cancer patients.
According to the head of the Ayurvedic institute Dhanwanthari Vaidyasala of Thodupuzha, Satish Namboodiri, it is also used for peptic ulcer, certain type of cancer, liver ailments, and asthma.

In 2002, a US patent was issued to a group of Indian scientists of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research for an antibiotic and cow urine distillate mixture which was claimed to be serving as a bioenhancer, enhancing anti-microbial activity of antibiotic and antifungal agents.
In 2010, the Go-vigyan Anusandhan Kendra in Deolapar funded by Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh and the National Environmental Engineering Research Institute were granted a US patent for a gomutra-based drug which was claimed to prevent oxidative damage to DNA.
Cow urine is also used in Myanmar and Nigeria as a folk medicine. In Nigeria, a concoction of leaves of tobacco, garlic and lemon basil juice, rock salt and cow urine is used to treat convulsions in children. This has resulted in the death of several children from respiratory depression.

A recent movement advocates the regular drinking of gomutra for its alleged health benefits,  and it is marketed as a health drink. In 2009, Kanpur Gaushala Society in Kanpur released Goloka Pay, a cold drink containing 5% distilled cow urine, in two flavours, orange and lemon. It also contained herbs such as tulsi, shankhpushpi and brahmi.[19] Also in 2009, the Cow Protection Department of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh in Haridwar announced plans to release a similar product as an alternative to cola drinks.
Cosmetic products like soaps and shampoos are also made from gomutra.

Other Uses:
In religious rituals:
In Hinduism, cow urine has a special significance as a medicinal drink.  Sprinkling of cow urine is said to have a spiritual cleansing effect as well.  Cattle were a basic economic unit in ancient India, and cows are holy in Hinduism and their slaughter is restricted.

As a Floor Cleaning Agent:
A floor-cleaning fluid called Gaunyle is marketed by an organisation called Holy Cow Foundation.  Maneka Gandhi, Women and Child Development Minister, has proposed that Gaunyle be used instead of Phenyl in government offices.   In May 2015, in India ,Rajendra Singh Rathore, Medical and Health Minister of Rajasthan, inaugurated a  US$600,000  cow-urine refinery in Jalore.  The refinery was set up by Parthvimeda Gau Pharma Pvt. Ltd. which produces a floor cleaner called Gocleaner.
In organic farming.

Jeevamrutha storage cans:
Gomutra is used as a manure for production of rice.  Jeevamrutha is a fertilizer made from a mixture of cow urine, cow dung, jaggery, pulse flour and rhizosphere soil.[28] A mixture of gomutra, custard apple leaves and neem leaves after boiling is said to serve as a biopesticide.
In 2012, the College of Veterinary and Animal Sciences in Wayanad district began selling packaged gomutra and Panchagavya. The products were primarily directed towards organic farming with claims that it would reduce usage of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Gomutra is supposed to increase plant resistance and Panchagavya is supposed to increase growth of soil bacteria and improve fertility. The head of the institute, Joseph Mathew, said that quality was assured by collecting the first urine of the day from the cows, but that it was not usable for medicinal purposes.

Scientific studies:
A 1975 study on mice found that Jersey cow urine causes death in high doses.  A similar 1976 study on dogs showed that repeated administration of Jersey cow urine concoction as used in Nigerian folk medicine, resulted in hypotension and tachypnea, and also death. A 2001 study found prions in detectable amounts in the urine of Jersey cows suffering from bovine spongiform encephalopathy.
