Hey, sounds like you’re delving into the world of Ayurveda! Mukta Vati’s pretty popular for hypertension, but it’s not uncommon to hear about a few mix-ups when people start using it. The lightheadedness and sleepiness you’re feeling can indeed be related to Mukta Vati. It’s got herbs like Brahmi and Shankhapushpi that are calming, maybe a tad too calming for some people at first.
If these feelings are new and intense since you began taking it, it might be worth dialing back the dosage. Instead of stopping altogether, try just taking it once a day and see how you feel. Doses in Ayurveda can be quite individual, you know? What suits one person doesn’t always suit another.
About your liver concerns – Mukta Vati isn’t typically known to hurt liver health when used correctly, but ayurvedic formulations should match your unique body type (your prakriti). Also, who know’s what’s listed online sometimes! Still, keeping an eye on things like fatigue, jaundice, or digestive complaints would be a good idea.
You might want to consider your dinacharya - daily routine - to help balance things. Throw in some gentle yoga or pranayama which promotes circulation and can naturally manage BP. Also, stick to routine meals, maybe reduce caffeine if it’s in your diet? It might amp up that restless energy Mukta Vati’s trying to calm.
Check with an Ayurvedic practitioner who can get more specific about your prakriti and vikriti, and perhaps adjust your approach a bit more comprehensively. Ensure it’s safe given your condition and other meds, if any.
Oh and if them dizziness and sleepiness stick around, trust your gut — don’t hesitate to check in with a healthcare pro who can tailor the advice further. Balancing blood pressure is crucial, so don’t let it go too long without address.
