🌱Ayurveda🌱

In its wise array of literatures, Ayurveda has devoted an entire section to alcoholism (Madātyaya) and its treatment (Chikitsa).

Approach-

Detailed history and examination including Ashta Sthana Pareeksha (begins with Nadi Pareeksha), Dasa Vidha pareeksha (eliciting a patient’s physical, psychological and environmental status), Sroto Pareeksha(examination of channels and tissues) and finally Dosha-Dushti analysis. 

Treatment-

Begins only after the withdrawal symptoms have subsided (it will take almost 7-8 days, during this time medicines are administered and we keep the patient under observation).
