Lehya
Description
Zandu Vyagra Haritaki Lehya is a traditional Ayurvedic formulation renowned for its efficacy in supporting respiratory health. This herbal tonic is particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing upper respiratory tract issues such as common colds, allergic rhinitis, chronic sinusitis, coughs, and asthma. By harnessing the power of time-honored Ayurvedic ingredients, it acts to ease breathing difficulties, reduce chest congestion, and strengthen lung function. The formulation is based on the principles of Ayurveda, balancing the Doshas with its warming (Ushna) nature, which is especially effective for conditions exacerbated by Vata and Kapha imbalances. The Rasa (taste) is primarily sweet and astringent, supporting digestive health and boosting the body's natural defenses.

Warnings
Zandu Vyagra Haritaki Lehya is generally safe for use in individuals with Vata and Kapha dominant manifestations. However, due to its potential to increase Pitta, those with a Pitta dominance may experience side effects such as heartburn or abdominal discomfort. Mild loose stools can also occur due to the laxative effect of Haritaki. It is advisable to take this preparation with milk to mitigate heartburn. Pregnant and lactating women should consult their healthcare provider before starting this product. Store in a cool, dry place, and keep out of reach of children.
