Triphala capsules are safe. But don’t give if not required, donot self medicate, always consult ayurvedic physician for giving ayurvedic medicine, though it is safe. Need not be given if not required. There are rasayan preparation like chyavanprash that can be given which takes care of all the system of the body. For 8 ys child, you can give 1tsp once daily after breakfast with water.
Hello, If your child has very good appetite, good bowel movement, sleeps well and having age appropriate activities and body weight there is no need to give triphala, though it is safe to give. Take care, Kind regards.
Hlo,
👉 8 saal ke bachche ko Triphalā capsule dena safe nahi mana jata. 👉 Agar dena ho, to powder form + very small dose + doctor guidance zaroori hai.
Triphalā churna: ¼ teaspoon Garam paani ya shahad ke saath Hafte mein 2–3 baar, daily nahi ❗ Kab bilkul na dein: Agar bachcha already loose motion se pareshan ho Kamzor ho, ya dehydration ka risk ho Bina kisi problem ke “aise hi immunity ke liye”

Well as you have not mentioned why you are giving the medicine I would suggest you should change his lifestyle and food habits.
As he is just 8 years, it is easy now to change his lifestyle to prepare him for a healthy future as well.
Any if you are planning to give TRIPHALA as rasayan please get a personal consultation of his complete analysis of body type.
Hello Thanks for asking. It’s smart to be careful about what you give your kid
YOUR CONCERN
–Age: 8 years old –Health: Generally good, no big problems –Allergies: None –Supplements: Never taken herbal stuff before
CAN KIDS HAVE TRIPHALA?
Yes, they can, but there are some things to keep in mind.
Triphala capsules are usually not the best choice for kids, especially if your child is healthy and doesn’t have major tummy troubles. Capsules often have adult doses and can be too strong or drying for a child’s insides.
When Triphala is okay for kids:
Triphala can be helpful if your child is dealing with: – Constipation – Bad digestion – Frequent colds or a weak immune system – Irregular bathroom habits
If your child doesn’t have these issues, they probably don’t need Triphala every day.
The best way to give it and how much for an 8-year-old:
–Best form: Triphala powder (not capsules). –Safe dose: A tiny bit, like a pinch to 1/4 teaspoon. –How often: Once a day with honey or warm water, either at bedtime or first thing in the morning. –Start slow: Do it 2-3 times a week, not every day at first.
When to skip Triphala:
Don’t give Triphala if your child has: – Diarrhea – Is very underweight – Has super dry skin – A poor appetite – Is sick with a fever or other acute illness
Better daily choices for kids:
If you’re just looking for general health or immunity, try these instead: * Warm milk with a pinch of turmeric * Chyawanprash (a kid-friendly, small dose) * Seasonal fruits * Enough sleep and a regular routine
–Don’t give Triphala capsules to your 8-year-old. – If you really feel they need it, use a tiny amount of the powder. – Only use it for a specific reason, not just as a daily thing. – A child’s digestion is sensitive and still growing.
Warm Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate
❌ Triphala capsules are NOT recommended for children. Capsules are formulated for adult dosage and are too strong for a child’s delicate digestive system. 👉 In Ayurveda, if Triphala is ever used in children, it is only in powder form and in very minimal dose, under medical supervision. However, in an 8-year-old child, I do not recommend routine use of Triphala, especially when the health status is generally good and constipation is mild. 🌿 Constipation in children is best managed by correcting lifestyle and diet rather than medicines. 🥗 Lifestyle & Diet Tips for Constipation in an 8-Year-Old ✔ Daily Diet Changes Warm, freshly cooked meals Add ghee (1–2 tsp/day) in food Include fruits like papaya, apple, pear, banana Vegetables: bottle gourd, pumpkin, carrot, spinach Encourage lukewarm water intake during the day 🚫 Avoid: Junk food, bakery items, chips Excess chocolates and cold drinks Packaged snacks ⏰ Healthy Bowel Habits Fix a daily toilet time, preferably morning after breakfast Do not force or rush the child Encourage sitting calmly for 5–10 minutes Never suppress the urge to pass stool 🏃♂️ Activity & Routine At least 1 hour of outdoor play daily Limit mobile, TV, and screen time Ensure early bedtime and adequate sleep 🏠 Simple Home Measures Warm milk at night (optional) A pinch of rock salt in food if digestion is weak Gentle tummy massage with warm oil before bath 🌸 Conclusion: ✔ Triphala capsules are unsafe for children ✔ Medicines are not the first choice for childhood constipation ✔ Correct diet, routine, and activity usually resolve the issue naturally
Give half 2 times dont worry
👶 Triphala in Children - Traditional use: Triphala (a blend of amalaki, haritaki, bibhitaki) is sometimes given to children in Ayurveda, but usually in very mild, adjusted forms (like churna with honey or warm water), not in adult-strength capsules. - Age factor: At 8 years, a child’s digestion (agni) is still delicate. Capsules are typically formulated for adults, so the dose may be too strong. - Safety: Occasional, small amounts of Triphala are considered safe for children, especially for mild constipation or digestive imbalance.
✅ Safer Alternatives For children, Ayurveda often suggests: - Dietary adjustments: more fruits, warm water, fiber. - Mild remedies: a pinch of Triphala churna with honey or ghee, only when needed. - Lifestyle: regular sleep, gentle yoga, hydration.
Warm Regards Dr. Anjali Sehrawat
Yes – Triphala is generally safe for children 8 years old in small doses. It is gentle and commonly used for digestion & immunity.
Safe Dosage ¼ tsp (0.5–1 gm) Triphala powder once at night with warm water or honey. If using capsules: open 1 capsule and take only ¼ powder by mixing with honey/water.
Start with half dose for 3 days, observe (no loose motions). Continue max 4–6 weeks, then 1-week break.
It Improves digestion, bowel movements, immunity & appetite.
Stop if loose stools or discomfort. Consult pediatrician/Ayurvedic doctor before regular use.

HELLO,
No, it is not recommended to give Triphala capsules to an 8 year old child without supervision
EXPLANATION -Triphala is a strong herbal formulation -It is commonly used by adults for digestion and bowel regulation -Capsules are usually formulated for adult doses, not children -In children, Triphala can sometimes cause –loose motion/ diarrha –stomach cramp –dehydration if bowel movements increase
Since your child -has never taken herbal supplements before -is generally healthy with only minor issues
–it’s better not to start capsules on your own
If triphala is ever considered for a child -It should be in very small, age appropriate doses -preferably powder or syrup form, not capsules
SAFER ALTERNATIVES WITHOUT MEDICATIONS -Balanced diet with fruits and fiber -adequate water intake -regular meal timing
GENERAL DOSE FOR 8 YEAR OLD= 1/4 tsp about 250 mg once daily at night -mix in lukewarm water or honey -best given at night if for constipation DURATION= short term only few days, to daily long-term use
DO FOLLOW
HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL
THANK YOU

हेलो,
नहीं, 8 साल के बच्चे को बिना देखरेख के त्रिफला कैप्सूल देने की सलाह नहीं दी जाती है
समझाना -त्रिफला एक मज़बूत हर्बल फ़ॉर्मूला है -इसे आम तौर पर बड़े लोग पाचन और पेट साफ़ करने के लिए इस्तेमाल करते हैं -कैप्सूल आम तौर पर बड़ों की डोज़ के लिए बनाए जाते हैं, बच्चों के लिए नहीं -बच्चों में, त्रिफला कभी-कभी ये कर सकता है –लूज़ मोशन/ डायरिया –पेट में ऐंठन –अगर पेट साफ़ होने की रफ़्तार बढ़ जाए तो डिहाइड्रेशन
क्योंकि आपके बच्चे ने -पहले कभी हर्बल सप्लीमेंट नहीं लिया है -आम तौर पर सेहतमंद है और उसे छोटी-मोटी दिक्कतें हैं
–तो बेहतर है कि आप खुद से कैप्सूल देना शुरू न करें
अगर कभी बच्चे के लिए त्रिफला लेने के बारे में सोचा जाए -तो यह बहुत कम, उम्र के हिसाब से डोज़ में होना चाहिए -बेहतर होगा कि पाउडर या सिरप के रूप में हो, कैप्सूल के रूप में नहीं
बिना दवा के सुरक्षित विकल्प -फलों और फ़ाइबर वाला बैलेंस्ड खाना -काफ़ी पानी पीना -रेगुलर खाना
8 साल के बच्चे के लिए आम डोज़ OLD= 1/4 tsp लगभग 250 mg रोज़ रात में एक बार - गुनगुने पानी या शहद में मिलाएं - अगर कब्ज़ हो तो रात में देना सबसे अच्छा है DURATION= शॉर्ट टर्म सिर्फ़ कुछ दिन, से लेकर रोज़ लंबे समय तक इस्तेमाल
FOLLOW करें
उम्मीद है यह मददगार होगा
धन्यवाद
