Low BP may be because of anxiety and stress in this patient or also due to other underlying factors, need to do some test for that. Patient needs counseling along with other stress reliving medicine. Ashwagandha alone will not help much in this conditions. There are many others medicines available for stress and anxiety. Proper consultation will help.

Yashtimadhu along with Ashwagandha will help. The low bp could be due to autoimmunity. For that follow HAIP DIET.

Got ur concern and thanks for trusting Ayurveda and seeking help on authentic platform.
Surely Holistic Ayurveda Approach will add value under ayurvedic supervision not the self medication.
So these are safe for 7days after consult in person with your feedback.
Next Steps
Hasttal-Padtal-Nabhi-karn-shir oil application would serve better

Hello..
Yes! Ashwagandha is good for stress and anxiety and enhance sleep quality . If anyone has low b. p. issue then I would not recommend it because it may lowers blood pressure so should not take in low b.p.
Mentat is good for stress and anxiety but it also contains ashwagandha so do not take in low b.p. Issues.
