Ayurveda is the science of life and is all about nature , it is the most ancient science which has its deep root in India but due to urbanization and modernization we Indians are forgetting our culture ,our roots and following the western culture . western culture has not only replaced our way of living ,clothes ,education  but has also replaced Ayurveda with allopathy in term of medication .

Now when it is about which one is better , it is also important to understand that both ayurveda and allopathy are important and unique  at their own place as both of them have one motive that is to treat the disease of diseased one . allopathy medicines works great when there is an emergency and life threatening situation whereas ayurveda works great in rejuvenation of organ failure and also cures the chronic diseases effectively from the root cause .

Beside all these there are certain more points which uplifts the ayurveda and this is well cleared by the following points –

• ayurveda is believed to be the science of nature and all the medicines of ayurveda are naturally made whereas allopathic medicine are made in lab and are chemically formed.
• God has made everything including human being, animals , plants , water etc,. We all humans are part of nature only and nothing can heal nature better than nature itself . so here it is clear that how ayurveda can purely heal any disease without any harm to the body .
• Man made things are never permanent and also interfere with the nature due to which allopathy medicines not show permanent effect on the body instead it leads to various side effects in the body that could vary from mild to severe .
• Allopathic medicines works on the symptoms , they will prescribe medicine that will immediately suppress the symptoms like pain , nausea ,cough and acidity and therefore is mostly opted nowadays by the people due to lack of patience and tolerance but  these painkillers will definitely provide relief from the symptom but not from the cause due to which it does not give permanent  effect on the body , after drug excretion the pain will restart and again the painkiller  is needed .
• Consuming medicines such as painkillers and paracetamol like antipyretics will just suppress the symptoms but while suppressing symptoms it also severely damages other body parts and leads to various side effects which is why we have often heard from the people saying that after this disease  or while undergoing some medication they have developed  other problem .
• On other hand ayurveda works differently , it focus more on the root cause rather than symptoms due to which it sometimes it takes long time to treat the disease and due to this quality people now- a -days choose allopathy over ayurveda and then  they mostly complain that ayurveda works slowly which is absolutely a myth .
• It is important to understand the role of ayurveda and their principles, ayurveda first motive is to maintain the health of healthy people which is like prevention is better than cure and then the second motive is to treat the disease of diseased one.
• Ayurveda never works slowly it cures the disease from the very root cause which sometimes takes time specially in those who have chronic problems but in acute cases it works as fast as allopathy .
• It is also believed that ayurveda can treat diseases that cannot be treated in allopathy like liver failure ,kidney failure there are numerous herbs  that create wonders  and rejuvenate the dead cell.
• Ayurveda never suggest same medicine for every individual as each and every person is different whereas allopathy does not have such rules they prescribe medicine as per disease and therefore give same medication .
• In case of fever allopathic medicines suggest us antibiotics and antipyretics but these medicines just lower down temperature and reduce symptoms but on other hand these antibiotics reduce our immunity and once that antibiotic is taken our body become resistant to it for the next time but in ayurveda it is not so , ayurveda helps in boosting immunity so that body itself will heal and protect itself from the future attack.
• Also keep in mind ayurveda is a science of life it is not only for the diseased one but also for each and every individual living on this planet .
• Ayurveda is a daily routine .Healthy diet and healthy lifestyle is a key to good health and one should definitely follow rules mentioned in ayurveda.

So these were the certain points that clearly tell us that ayurveda is better option than allopathy.  as mentioned above  people now –a-days  have lack of  patience and unable to tolerate pains and then end up taking allopathy so now below  there are few  ayurvedic tablets to replace allopathic pills  that provide  instant relief .

• For sore throat , cough and cold we always look up for quick solution to get over uncomfortable feeling and for that one often take vicks , strepsils and cofsils .

An Ayurvedic alternative to this is kanthsudhakar vati  that is amde from traditional herbs like kapur , lavanga , elaichi  and javitri  . This medicine is really effective , soothing and effective in sore throat and also is a great expectorant .

• For unbearable stomach pain allopathy medicines gives us meftal spas , declogesic like painkillers .

An ayurvedic alternative for this is hingu , ajwain  , shunti that can we taken with luke warm water and also there is one tablet called gandhak raj bati . it is made of purified gandhak (sulphur) this helps in cleansing toxins from the body and regulate vitiated vata dosha in the body .

• In case of fever allopathic medicines suggest crocin , paracetamol like medicines that are also known to be liver toxic .An ayurveda alternative to this sudrashanghan vati , mritunjya rasa , amrita aristha etc, prepared with most effective herbs that helps in reducing fever . it helps in promoting sweating , improves immunity and reduces fever .
• For headache which is quite common problem now a days due to stressful life allopathy medicine is saridon that is generally taken by many people for immediate relief is a combination of paracetamol and caffeine .

An ayurveda alternative for this is shirashool vati , it is combination of 20 ayurvedic herbs like guggul , gokshura , amla , pippali and haritaki.

• In case of allergy ,sore throat , runny nose and headache allopathy suggest citrazine (an anti-allergic) for immediate relief but it leads to drowsiness for at least 48 hours . so an ayurveda alternative to this is laxmivilas rasa  that helps in provide relief from all the symptoms.

Also along with such medication it is important to eat healthy and accordingly and also it is important to do required changes in daily living and adding yoga , meditation and exercises in daily routine  . if all the points are taken care of then ayurveda gives much better results than allopathic medicine and will help in boosting immunity and providing longevity .
