Hello Sanjana,
For managing allergic rhinitis, Sitopaladi Churna and Trikatu Churna can be used as supportive Ayurvedic remedies. They are generally well-tolerated when taken in low doses under supervision. Here's a suggested dosage:
Sitopaladi Churna: 1 to 2 grams (about 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon) mixed with honey, taken twice a day after meals. It helps in reducing mucus, easing congestion, and supporting respiratory health.
Trikatu Churna (a blend of black pepper, long pepper, and ginger): 250 to 500 mg (a pinch) with honey or warm water, once or twice a day. It aids in digestion, reduces Kapha, and helps clear nasal passages.
Haridra khand - 1 tsp with warm water in empty stomach.
These doses are mild and suitable for most adults, but it’s best to consult an Ayurvedic Vaidya locally to personalize the treatment. Additionally, maintaining a light, warm diet and avoiding dairy or cold foods can enhance the effects of these herbs. Regular steam inhalation and nasal irrigation, Nasyam , Pranayqm with saline water may also provide relief.

Hello Sanjana, It seems like your allergic rhinitis could be related to an imbalance in the Kapha dosha, which often causes excess mucus production and congestion. In Ayurveda, we typically recommend remedies such as using a nasal rinse with a saline or herbal solution (Neti Pot) to clear the nasal passages, as well as consuming warm teas with ingredients like ginger, turmeric, and tulsi to reduce inflammation and clear the airways. Additionally, you might find relief from a diet that avoids cold, heavy, or mucous-forming foods. Have you tried any herbal supplements or dietary changes for this condition? Could you share if you have any sensitivities to certain allergens or a family history of respiratory issues? It might also be helpful to assess your lifestyle and stress levels, as these can contribute to the frequency and severity of allergic reactions.
