What Is Chlorpromazine and How Can Ayurveda Help in Managing Its Side Effects? - #14976
I’ve recently been prescribed chlorpromazine for managing my symptoms of anxiety and agitation. The doctor explained that chlorpromazine is an antipsychotic medication that works by affecting certain chemicals in the brain. While I’ve noticed some improvements in my symptoms, I’ve also started experiencing some side effects, such as dizziness, dry mouth, and drowsiness. I’m concerned about the long-term use of chlorpromazine and would like to explore natural ways to manage these side effects. Can Ayurveda offer any natural remedies to help support the body while I’m taking chlorpromazine? I’ve heard that certain herbs, like Ashwagandha and Brahmi, can help with stress and anxiety—could these herbs help me manage my symptoms more effectively and reduce the need for medication? I’m also curious about any Ayurvedic practices that can help improve my mental clarity and reduce drowsiness caused by chlorpromazine. Could dietary changes or specific Ayurvedic treatments help in balancing the effects of this medication and improving my overall well-being? Has anyone here used chlorpromazine and found relief from side effects through Ayurvedic remedies or lifestyle changes? What worked for you in managing the side effects and improving mental health naturally?
