ayurvedic and allopathic combination is safe? can i take together?please do help

You are already on multiple antidepressants. — firstly continue your all allopathic medicine as prescribed don’t stop it. Keep at least 2 hours gap to reduce interaction and absorption issues. Because allopathic and ayurvedic taken together is safe or not it depends on medicines , as now u are already on strong antidepressants so advicing u safer side, to avoid more sedation, liver stress. –Diagnosis : Vata-pradhana Manovikara / Anidra —Rx: 1)Tab. Manasmitra Vatakam – 1 tab at bedtime with warm milk 2)Brahmi Ghrita – ½ tsp at bedtime with warm milk 3)Brahmi oil head massage at night 4)Ksheerabala taila foot massage before sleep 5)Warm milk with small pinch of nutmeg at bedtime Advice - — go with panchkarma therapies such as Shirodhara with ksheerbala taila for 7 days , nasya with any taila under supervision if feasible. —Avoid late-night screen use Early sleep (10 pm) Light, warm diet
