(Rumanian Dragasani), a town of Rumania, near the right bank of the river Olt, and on the railway between Caracal and Ramnicu Valcea. Pop. (1900) 4398. The town is of little commercial importance, but the vineyards on the neighbouring hills produce some of the best Walachian wines. Dragashani stands on the site of the Roman Rusidava. In 1821 the Turks routed the troops of Ypsilanti near the town.
