Can We Take Ayurvedic And Allopathic Medicine Together - #6626
I’ve recently started using some Ayurvedic remedies for joint pain and digestion issues, but I’m also on allopathic medication for hypertension and thyroid problems. I’m wondering—can we take Ayurvedic and allopathic medicine together without any risks? Is it safe to combine the two systems of medicine, or should they be taken separately? From what I’ve read, can we take Ayurvedic and allopathic medicine together is a common question because people want the best of both worlds. Some articles say it’s fine as long as there’s no direct interaction between the medicines, while others recommend spacing them apart. What’s the best approach? Should Ayurvedic medicines be taken a few hours after allopathic ones to avoid complications? Another concern I have is whether Ayurvedic remedies like Triphala, Ashwagandha, or Dashmoolarishta might interfere with the absorption or effectiveness of allopathic drugs. Are there specific combinations that should be avoided altogether? For example, can liver detox remedies in Ayurveda clash with medications like statins? If anyone has experience or advice about can we take Ayurvedic and allopathic medicine together, I’d love to hear your thoughts. Did combining the two systems work well for you, or were there any side effects? Should I consult both an Ayurvedic doctor and my allopathic physician before making any changes? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
