Medicine for anxiety depression insomnia
I am suffering from anxiety, depression and insomnia due to some personal issues. Consulted an Ayurvedic doctor. He prescribed Sresnil tablet (Nagarjuna brand) and Kottakkal Drakshadi kwatham. 2 tablets each in the morning and night. First one after food, second one before food. But it seems Drakshadi kwatham is also used for liver protection, nausea etc (apart from anxiety). But my liver is fine and I don't have any vomiting problem. So is it safe to take this medicine when I don't have these problems? In general is it safe to take multi-purpose medicines like this when I am having only one or two issues?

Drakshadi kwath can also be used in stress conditions due to different ingredients present in it.
