Ayurvedic medicine refers to herbal preparations, oil-based applications, and certain traditional formulations used within Ayurveda. The key operational issues are quality, standardization, and safety: products sold under the same name may vary widely. Because interactions with medications are possible, unsupervised use is not recommended. A safer approach is to prioritize reputable sourcing, transparent labeling, appropriate dosing, and clinician or pharmacist guidance—while avoiding exaggerated “cure” claims.
