Hi Rashmi, Were the medicines prescribed by the same doctor for the last 6 months? Has the dose been the same throughout? Have you noticed any changes since you began the medicines?

Hello ayurvedic medicine doesn't affect negative on body Whatever medicine we advise for 6 months especially for nerve problem gastritis liver issues as it deals with major problems we advise for 6 months for recovery so no need to worry. For gastritis try with food changes like avoid spicy food as u have liver problem even liver problem will affect the digestion process Even ur headache may be due to severe gastritis and also lead to migraine headache also. After 6 months if there is improvement try to reduce the dosage of medicine or take a medicine with minimal dosage on doctor advice only. Any doubt contact dr.nikitha 9743512999

Hello Mrs Ranjan, Since you have been taking Ayurvedic medicines for six months, it is important to understand your progress and any changes in symptoms. Are you experiencing relief from vertigo, headaches, and nerve weakness? Has your gastritis improved, or do you still feel acidity and bloating? For liver issues, have you noticed any changes in digestion, appetite, or energy levels? Are there any new symptoms since starting the medicines? Do you feel dependency on any particular herb, or has the effect reduced over time? Ayurvedic medicines do not typically cause resistance like antibiotics, but long-term use should be monitored. Do you take regular breaks from medication or continue without interruption? Your body's response should be assessed to adjust treatment accordingly.

Namaste Thank you for your query. You are taking Ayurvedic medicines under a doctor’s guidance, which is the right approach. Unlike allopathic antibiotics, Ayurvedic medicines do not cause “medicine resistance” because they work on restoring the balance of Doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) rather than just suppressing symptoms. However, the body may adapt to the medicines over time, meaning their effectiveness may feel reduced. This can happen if: The underlying cause of the disease is not fully addressed (lifestyle/diet issues). There is no seasonal modification in the treatment plan. The digestive system (Agni) is weak, leading to improper absorption Indukantha Ghritam & Medhya Rasayan: Take for 3 months, then pause for 1 month. Triphala: Can be taken long-term, but reduce the dose if digestion weakens. Ashwagandhadi & Brahmi: No harm in long-term use, but can switch to formulations like Brahmi Vati or Ashwagandha Churna for variation. Liveon Tablet (for liver health): Take a break every 3 months for 2 weeks to allow the body to reset. For Neurological Issues: • Include cow ghee & walnuts in your diet. • Practice Bhramari & Anulom Vilom pranayama daily. For Gastritis: • Avoid spicy, sour, and fermented foods. • Drink coconut water and Jeera water for soothing digestion. For Liver Health: • Take Amla juice in the morning. • Reduce processed & fried foods. Every 3 months, take Haritaki Churna (½ tsp at night with warm water) for 10 days to cleanse the digestive tract. Final Recommendation • You do not need to stop all medicines completely, but periodic breaks and rotation can enhance their efficacy. • Listen to your body—if any medicine causes discomfort, adjust the dosage or consult your Ayurvedic doctor for modification.
