Hello doctor,
I have developed anxiety problems due to severe work-related stress. I work in the IT services with timings from 2:00 PM to 11:00 PM. So, I go to bed by 1:00 AM and wake up around 6.45 AM every day. Due to stress, I am having palpitations. I had a full echo, ECG, and a treadmill test to rule out cardiac problems and the results were normal. I was advised Betacap 20 mg and Restyl 0.25 each once a day. I have been taking these medications for close to one and a half years now. However, during a Siddha camp in our office for stress, they reviewed my medications and have advised me to take Ashwagandha 400 mg twice, one in morning and night each along with my allopathy medications. Also, I have lost my sex drive due to stress. I would like to take advice on this medication and dosage. Will these ayurvedic supplements cause any interactions?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
If you have seven hours of continuous and undisturbed deep sleep, that is more than enough to compensate your trouble. Your drowsiness during your working hours and loss of interest in sex is because of the side effects of the drugs. I suggest the following therapies:
You can join a yoga-pranayama course and practice it daily. It will bring positive changes.
I have prescribed you yogic drugs, which will make you healthy mentally as well as physically. After three months, you can stop Betacap.
Hello doctor,
Thanks so much.
I am also taking Liv-52 for poor appetite. Is Vallarai called as Brahmi? During the herbal workshop at office, they prescribed Oh boy medicine containing Krishna Musli, Brahmi and Shwet Musli for sex drive. Since I have already purchased it, can I use these?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Yes, both Vallarai and Brahmi are same. You can use Musli if you have already purchased it. Once Musli is finished, then you continue with capsule Rathnapurush. This capsule additionally contains Shilajit.
