Assessing the efficacy of Ayurvedic treatment protocol in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Management - A Case Report

The most common neurobehavioral condition in childhood is attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). It disrupts social, intellectual, and vocational performance and is distinguished by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. In Ayurveda, diseases connected to psychological and behavioural problems are discussed in the Unmada chapter. So, based on the signs and symptoms, it could be associated with Unmada (Vata Pitta Unmada). The current case was conducted at Kaumarabhritya OPD & IPD of Rishikul Campus, Haridwar to evaluate the efficiency of an Ayurvedic therapy protocol in the management of ADHD in children. Ayurvedic treatments such as Kosthashodhana, Basti (Matra Basti), Pichu, and Nasya were used, and assessments were conducted before and after treatment and during follow-up visits.

Abstract

The most common neurobehavioral condition in childhood is attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). It disrupts social, intellectual, and vocational performance and is distinguished by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. In Ayurveda, diseases connected to psychological and behavioural problems are discussed in the Unmada chapter. So, based on the signs and symptoms, it could be associated with Unmada (Vata Pitta Unmada). The current case was conducted at Kaumarabhritya OPD & IPD of Rishikul Campus, Haridwar to evaluate the efficiency of an Ayurvedic therapy protocol in the management of ADHD in children. Ayurvedic treatments such as Kosthashodhana, Basti (Matra Basti), Pichu, and Nasya were used, and assessments were conducted before and after treatment and during follow-up visits.
