WITH WARN REGARDS DR.P.PRASAD
I recommend stopping Chitraka Haritaki Leham now. As Chitraka is Hot in nature and penetrating. Prolonged use in a cured patient can aggravate Pitta and cause gastric irritation or dryness.
Switch to Haridra Khanda. It is the gold standard for long-term immunity against allergies, cold, and sneezing, and it is safe for the stomach.
New Prescription (For Runny Nose while Eating & Sneezing) 1 Haridra Khanda: 1 teaspoon with warm milk or warm water, twice daily 2 Vyoshadi Vati: Chew or suck 1 tablet 10 minutes before lunch and dinner. 3 Talisadi Churna: 1/2 teaspoon mixed with honey, twice daily. 4 Rasnadi Churna: Continue applying a pinch on the crown of the head after bath daily.
Dietary Advice For Runny Nose while Eating: Temperature: Do not eat steaming hot food. Let the food cool down to a warm temperature. High heat triggers the nasal drip. Spices: Reduce Red Chillies (Lal Mirch) significantly. Use Black Pepper instead. Hydration: Drink only warm water. Cold water will immediately trigger sneezing.
Lifestyle Advice Protection: Since you cannot use drops, physical protection is key. Wrap a scarf or wear a mask to cover the nose when going out into cold wind/dust. Dry Massage: Rub your palms together until warm and place them over your nose and sinuses specifically before stepping out into the cold.

Hello, I appreciate you giving me all the information. Substantially you have already made quite a good progress—sinusitis healed, and allergic rhinitis is almost 90% nicer, which is a good indicator that your present treatment is very effective.
👉ABOUT CHITRAKI HARITAKI LEHAM — CONTINUATION OR NOT?
The answer is yes, you are allowed to continue it, but not for a consecutive period of 1.5 months.
Chitraka + Haritaki are deepana, pachana & kapha-releasing.
Prolonged uninterrupted use of the mixture may have the following consequences: –Inflammation of the stomach lining –Production of excessive amounts of acid in the stomach –Diarrhea condition in those people whose intestines are sensitive
As you have a good digestive power, the risk is only slight.
👉 safe continuation limit: 4 more weeks (1 month maximum)
Dosage: ½ at night after meal After a month → discontinue and check the current condition again.
👉 WHY RUNNY NOSE WHILE EATING IS NOT FULLY IMPROVING?
This phenomenon is known as Gustatory Rhinitis Eating warm food Being in a cold place Sudden change of temperature Unclean air
The main cause of this symptom may be even after the healing of sinusitis is the extremely sensitive nasal mucosa.
👉 THE MOST EFFECTIVE AYURVEDIC MEDICINES FOR A RUNNY NOSE WHILE EATING AND SNEEZING
As nasya/nasal drops are not an option for you, we will resort to internal & external powders.
✅ INTERNAL MEDICATION (Very effective & safe)
1. Haridra Khanda 1 tsp twice daily with warm water (It corrects the hyperreactivity of the mucosa and reduces sneezing)
2 Vyoshadi Vatakam 2 tsp with warm water after food (That is the balance of Vata-Kapha & the control of cold-induced sneezing is returned to the patient)
3. Sitopaladi Churna ½ tsp with honey, twice daily (helps control runny nose that occurs while eating)
Duration- 4 weeks
👉 EXTERNAL APPLICATION (A SAFE ALTERNATIVE TO NASAL DROPS)
Since you are doing Rasanadi Churna, make sure that you keep doing it.
This remedy, however, should be added: Dry ginger (Shunthi) smoke inhalation Light a piece of dry ginger → gently inhale the fumes for 3–5 breaths Accessible nasal routes are cleared Cold sensitivity is reduced There is no need for oil drops Perform 3–4 times per week.
✅ DIET & LIFESTYLE TO REDUCE SYMPTOMS
❌Avoid for 8 weeks
Drinking cold water Eating curd Banana Icing Cold drinks Bathing in the evening Sleeping directly under the fan/AC
☑️Include
Water should always be warm Ginger tea Turmeric milk Tulsi water Black pepper in food
You are already progressed a lot further we have to work on prevention of recurrence and strengthing the system.
Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate
1. Sithophaladi churna 1/2 th teaspoon with honey twice dialy after breakfast 2. Mulethi churna 1/4 teaspoon with warm water at morning after breakfast 3. Haridra khanda half teaspoon with warm water after meals twice daily 4. Vyoshadi Vatakam 2 tsp with warm water after food at afternoon
Duration: continue the above for three months
Can You please confirm, the above medicines and dosage does not cause any issues.
Thank you
Yes Continue for 45 days And do follow up So that we can understand the progess and modify medicines accordingly
Continuing Chitraki Haritaki leham is generally safe, but your concern about gastric issues is valid. Since you’ve been using it for three months and experience no adverse effects, you might choose to continue for another month and a half, but monitor your digestion. Chitraka is hot in nature and stimulates digestion, but in some sensitive individuals, long-term use could irritate the stomach lining.
For your remaining symptoms, such as runny nose while eating and sneezing, consider adjusting your regimen. Since you’re seeing improvement in other areas, alternative herbal support might be helpful.
You could try Sitopladi Churna, which is known for alleviating cough and cold symptoms. Mix a teaspoon of churna with a bit of honey and consume it 30 minutes after meals. This may also help with sneezing fits and can be adjusted to twice a day if needed.
Stay away from cold or spicy foods, as these may exacerbate runny nose and sneezing. Favor warm, cooked meals over raw or refrigerated items. Implement daily pranayama or deep breathing exercises, aimed at sinus health, to help with nasal symptoms. Anubhavi pranayama or alternate nostril breathing before meals could offer relief from runniness triggered by eating.
Be sure to observe any new symptoms or changes and make note of your body’s response to these adjustments. If concerned about further stomach issues or if symptoms persist, consider consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner for tailored advice. Meanwhile, maintain adequate hydration to thin mucus, and, ideally, sip on warm water throughout the day.
For going outside in cold weather, protect your nasal passages with a scarf. You’ve mentioned you’re avoiding nasal drops, so consider regular steam inhalation with a few Tulsi leaves to provide relief when outdoors.
Safety and comfort are crucial; should any symptom worsen, or if digestive discomfort appears, please seek further professional consultation.
Hi, Thanks for your question
Chitrak (Plumbago zeylanica) is hot in potency, improves digestion, and reduces mucus. Long-term use may aggravate acidity, gastritis, mouth burning, or excess heat in some people. Traditionally it is not recommended for prolonged use unless monitored. Since you already improved 90% and are concerned about gastric issues, it is completely reasonable to:-
Then reduce a little dose and then u can continue it for NXT 1.5 month.
Thanku

अगर चित्रकी हरितकी लेहम आपकी मदद कर रहा है और आपको कोई खास साइड इफेक्ट नहीं हो रहे हैं, तो इसे अगले 1.5 महीने तक जारी रखना सही हो सकता है, खासकर जब आप अपनी एलर्जिक राइनाइटिस और साइनसाइटिस में अच्छा सुधार देख रहे हैं। हालांकि, लंबे समय तक उपयोग के कारण अग्नि या पाचन अग्नि पर संभावित प्रभावों के बारे में सतर्क रहना उचित है; लंबे समय तक उपयोग से संवेदनशील व्यक्तियों के लिए कुछ गैस्ट्रिक असुविधा हो सकती है।
चित्रकी हरितकी लेहम आमतौर पर कफ और वात दोष को संतुलित करता है, जो अक्सर आपके द्वारा वर्णित लक्षणों से जुड़े होते हैं—खासकर बहती नाक और छींक। इसके उचित उन्मूलन को प्रोत्साहित करना लक्षण राहत का समर्थन करता है। संभावित गैस्ट्रिक समस्याओं को कम करने के लिए, आप सुनिश्चित कर सकते हैं कि आप लेहम को भोजन के बाद ले रहे हैं न कि खाली पेट, क्योंकि इससे म्यूकोसा में किसी भी जलन को कम किया जा सकता है।
खाने के दौरान या ठंड के संपर्क में आने पर होने वाली आपकी बहती नाक के लिए, आप सितोपलादि चूर्ण को शामिल करने पर विचार कर सकते हैं। इसे थोड़े से शहद के साथ लेने पर, यह कफ से संबंधित बलगम को कम करने और एलर्जिक राइनाइटिस जैसी स्थितियों में मदद करने में कोमल लेकिन प्रभावी हो सकता है। आप इसे दिन में दो बार, भोजन के लगभग 30 मिनट बाद ले सकते हैं।
एक व्यावहारिक घरेलू उपाय के रूप में, दिन भर गर्म पानी के साथ उचित हाइड्रेशन सुनिश्चित करें ताकि बलगम पतला हो सके और ठंडे मौसम में बाहर जाने से पहले हल्के तेल से खुद को अभिषेक करें, जो ठंड से प्रेरित लक्षणों से श्वसन पथ को इन्सुलेट और सुरक्षित करने में मदद कर सकता है। पानी में कुछ तुलसी के पत्ते या नीलगिरी का तेल डालकर भाप लें—यह नाक के मार्ग को साफ करने में मदद करता है और बिना नाक की बूंदों की आवश्यकता के राहत प्रदान करता है।
अपने पाचन में किसी भी बदलाव या नए लक्षणों पर ध्यान दें; इन्हें समायोजन की आवश्यकता हो सकती है। यदि गैस्ट्रिक समस्याओं के बारे में चिंताएं बनी रहती हैं या यदि आप प्रतिकूल प्रभाव देखते हैं, तो सीधे एक आयुर्वेदिक चिकित्सक से परामर्श करें, क्योंकि वे आपकी प्रकृति और दोषिक स्थिति के साथ संरेखित एक अधिक विस्तृत मूल्यांकन प्रदान कर सकते हैं।
