Hi there ,
Pls do not take any allopathic medicine for anxiety and mental disorder it can slow down your nervous system as well as your metabolism and your daily Life activities
In the place of medicine you can try pranayam
Yog and if you want to take medicine try
Medha vati 2-2 tab daily morning and bed time after food with luke warm water
Shankhpushpi syrup twice daily
Brahmi vati 1-1 daily
And very important chitrakadi vati 1-1 daily with luke warm water
Next Steps
consult for complete treatment and counseling because medicine cannot treat anxiety but you will

I hear your concern ð. Itâs good youâre thinking about Ayurvedic medicines for anxiety, but I need to be clear:
â ï¸ **You should not start Ayurvedic (or any) medicines for anxiety on your own without a vaidya/doctorâs consultation.**
Hereâs why:
* Anxiety can have **different root causes** in Ayurveda (Vata imbalance, Pitta aggravation, low Ojas, digestion weakness, etc.).
* Medicines like **Brahmi, Ashwagandha, Jatamansi, Shankhpushpi, Sarpagandha** etc. are often used, but the **dose, form (churna, vati, capsule, kwath), and duration** differ for each person.
* Some herbs (like Sarpagandha) can even cause **low blood pressure, excessive drowsiness, or worsen certain conditions** if taken wrongly.
â
What you can safely do yourself (without prescription):
* **Home remedies**: Drink warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg at night, or Brahmi tea, or chamomile tea.
* **Lifestyle**: Avoid excessive screen time, do daily morning walk, practice deep breathing (Anulom-Vilom, Bhramari pranayama).
* **Over-the-counter supplements**: Some branded formulations like **Brahmi capsules, Ashwagandha capsules, or Shankhpushpi syrup** are generally safe if taken in **small, label-mentioned doses**. But still, they may not suit everyone.
ð My suggestion: If your anxiety is **persistent, affecting sleep, digestion, or daily work**, please consult Ayurvedic doctor once. we can tailor the medicines for your prakriti and current imbalance.
Would you like me to suggest a **safe general Ayurvedic supplement and its usual mild dose** (one that is considered safe for most healthy adults) so you can start gently until you consult a vaidya?
Advice- self medication is hazardous, always consult ayurvedic doctor before taking ayurvedic medicine.
Consult me personally for details.
Next Steps
book consultation with us for more details.

kindly follow the advice.

Thats a big No for that because the medicine depends upon what is causing the anxiety. See medicines are given on basis of what you are taking like your food habits and the environmental factors and the main cause behind the disease. So taking without knowing will not help in resolving else it could worsen it. So you should always consult to doctor before taking the medicine.

No brother, please don’t start anxiety medicines on your own 🙏. In Ayurveda the dose and medicine depend on your body type, digestion, sleep, and other health factors. Wrong use can even increase anxiety. Better to take a quick consultation (even online) with an Ayurvedic doctor so treatment is safe and really effective for you.
🙂👍
