Yes, your 11-year-old child can take kadha after meals. However, the more important question is—why does he need to take it? Is he suffering from any specific issue, such as a skin problem? If yes, understanding the exact nature of the condition becomes very important. In Ayurveda, before starting any medicine, especially in children, we must assess: • The child’s Prakriti (body constitution) • The dosha imbalance • The exact symptoms and root cause Without this evaluation, giving medicines may not be appropriate. Also, I would not recommend giving this kadha just as a general immunity booster or daily tonic. It is a therapeutic medicine and should be used only when indicated. I would suggest going for a proper consultation so we can understand your child’s condition in detail and guide you with the right and safe treatment.

Yes, you can give Mahamanjisthadi Kashayam to your 11-year-old child. ✓Recommended dose: 1 teaspoon (5 ml) + equal quantity of warm water (5 ml) Twice daily = after breakfast and after dinner. Important notes: This is a safe and standard paediatric dose for skin issues, blood purification or mild infections. ✓Give it strictly after food (as you mentioned) to avoid any gastric irritation. ✓Duration: Usually 2–4 weeks for noticeable improvement. Monitor for any loose stools or stomach discomfort (rare at this dose). If it occurs, stop and consult. Tip: Warm the mixture slightly before giving. Shake the bottle well. This combination (Mahamanjisthadi Kashayam) is commonly used in children for skin problems, allergies, or blood-related issues. Regards Dr Gursimran Jeet Singh MD Panchakarma

Mahamanjistadi kashaya is a blood purifier, if you child has skin related problems,then yes definitely you should give. But if you want to give as a precaution then give 5ml. twice with 10 ml. water for 1 month and then stop. You can buy this mahamanjistadi kwath ,that gives good effect, from here with available discount of 10% .

Namaste, Mahamanjishta Kashayam is mainly used for skin conditions and blood purification. In children, it should be used carefully and in appropriate dose, depending on the condition. Regarding your question: It can be given after food, so giving it after breakfast and dinner is acceptable. However, the dose you mentioned needs slight correction. Recommended way for an 11-year-old: Mahamanjishta Kashayam – 5 ml (around 1 teaspoon) with equal water, twice daily after food Make sure the child tolerates it well, as kashayam can be slightly strong in taste and effect. Important points: Give only if there is a clear indication (like skin issues, allergies, etc.) Avoid long-term continuous use without guidance If the child develops any digestive discomfort, reduce or stop Also ensure a simple, balanced diet and avoid excess junk, oily, and spicy foods. If you are using it for a specific condition, dose and duration may need adjustment. Consultation can help tailor this further to your needs.

yes, Mahamanjishta Kashayam can be administered to an 11-year-old, but the dosage and timing must be precise for a child. Since this is a potent blood purifier often used for skin conditions (like the Kushtha you were asking about). ​Administration Guidelines ​Timing: It is usually given before meals (on an empty stomach) However, if the child has a sensitive stomach, giving it 30 minutes after meals is acceptable to prevent gastric irritation. ​Dilution: It must be diluted with an equal amount of lukewarm water (e.g., 10 ml Kashayam + 10 ml Water). ​Standard Dosage (11 years): Typically 10 to 15 ml, twice daily.

Hello, In Ayurveda, Mahamanjistha kashayam is a classical herbal decoction mainly used for skin disorders, blood purification, and inflammatory conditions. When it comes to giving It to a child, a few points matter= age, condition, dosage and timing Can you give it after food to a. 11 year old? -yes, It can be given after food, especially in children, because -kashayams can be strong and slightly bitter -giving after meals helps reduce gastric irritation -it is often preferred in paediatric use About your planned dosage -you mentioned 1 teaspoon with equal water after breakfast and dinner For an 11 year old -this is generally a low and safe starting dose -diluting with equal water is appropriate 1) Condition specific use -Mahamanjisthadi is not a general tonic -it should be used for conditions like skin issues eczema, acne, rashes, blood related imbalances, -if you’re giving it without a clear indication, reconsider 2) Body constitution -it is cooling -excess use may aggravate -low appetite -weak digestion 3) Duration -typically used in short course, not long term 4)Watch for signs stop or adjust if you notice -loose stools -reduced appetite -fatigue or coldness Your plan is generally acceptable, but Ayurveda is highly individualised. If this is for a specific condition, I can help refine the dose, duration, and whether mahhamanjistha is the right choice at all Do follow Hope this might be helpful Thank you
