Is Ayurveda safe to use alongside NHS medications?

While many Ayurvedic practices are safe, it’s essential to consult your GP before combining them with NHS medications. Some Ayurvedic herbs can interact with prescription drugs, potentially affecting their effectiveness or causing side effects. For example, ginger and ginseng may interact with blood thinners or diabetes medications. Always disclose any Ayurvedic treatments you are using to your GP, and they can help you assess any potential risks and ensure your treatment plan is safe and effective.
