Which Medicine for Psoriasis in India Provides the Best Ayurvedic Relief?

Question

I have been suffering from psoriasis, and while steroid creams provide temporary relief, I want to explore a medicine for psoriasis in India that helps in naturally reducing flare-ups, itching, and skin scaling.

Some of the most commonly recommended Ayurvedic medicines for psoriasis include Mahamanjishthadi Kwath (for blood purification), Triphala (for detoxification), Nimbadi Kashayam (for reducing skin inflammation), and Panchatikta Ghrita (for deep skin healing). But how effective are these compared to allopathic psoriasis medications?

For those who have tried Ayurvedic medicine for psoriasis in India, what worked best for you? Did it help with long-term remission and skin health improvement?

Would love to hear from people who have successfully treated psoriasis using Ayurvedic medicine and whether they saw lasting benefits.

Ayurvedic medicines like Mahamanjishthadi Kwath and Triphala help with blood purification and detoxification, which can reduce psoriasis flare-ups and skin scaling. Nimbadi Kashayam is effective in calming skin inflammation, while Panchatikta Ghrita promotes deep healing and nourishes the skin from within.

These remedies often work best when combined with Kapha-Pitta balancing diets (avoiding spicy, oily, or processed foods), stress reduction, and regular detox therapies like Panchakarma. Many people have reported reduced itching, scaling, and long-term remission using Ayurveda. Consistency and lifestyle modifications are key for lasting benefits.

Dr. Harsha Joy · Answer

Ayurvedic medicines for psoriasis focus on balancing the doshas, detoxifying the body, and promoting internal healing. Mahamanjishthadi Kwath and Nimbadi Kashayam are commonly used to reduce inflammation and purify the blood, addressing the root causes of skin flare-ups. Triphala supports detoxification and digestion, while Panchatikta Ghrita provides deep nourishment and healing for the skin. Many patients report long-term improvements in skin health, with reduced flare-ups and itching when these remedies are combined with a Sattvic diet and lifestyle changes. While Ayurvedic treatments can be slower to show results compared to allopathic medications, they provide a holistic approach for lasting relief and improved skin health without the side effects associated with steroids.
