Ethical Practice of Ayurvedic Medicines: A Mixed-Methods Study of Practitioner Knowledge, Attitudes, and Systemic Safeguards
Ayurvedic medicine is widely used in India and globally. Expansion of use highlights ethical issues — standards of education and practice, transparency of evidence and advertising, patient informed consent, pharmacovigilance, and commercialization. International and national frameworks (WHO benchmarks; India’s AYUSH pharmacovigilance programs and NCISM regulations) guide practice, but empirical data on how ethics are implemented at the clinician and institutional level are limited.
