Successful Ayurvedic Herbal Treatment of Aplastic Anemia

Aplastic Anemia is a medical condition which results due to a failure of the bone marrow to produce sufficient quantity of red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets.  This results in severe anemia in the affected individual, leading to frequent infections, fever, and possible bleeding within the body.  Currently, there is no known cure for this disease.  Conservative treatment is in the form of blood transfusions as required and supportive treatment according to the requirements of each individual.

Ayurvedic herbal treatment can be judiciously utilised to successfully treat and cure patients affected with aplastic anemia.  Herbal medicines have a powerful effect on the bone marrow and stimulate it to start producing normal red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets.  This process usually takes about three to six months, depending upon the immune status and overall physical condition of the affected individual.  The majority of affected individuals usually go into a complete remission within six months of starting Ayurvedic herbal treatment.  Most affected individuals do not require blood transfusions after about three to four months of commencing Ayurvedic treatment.  Once the blood picture comes to a complete normal, medicines which are initially given thrice daily can then be gradually reduced to twice daily for a few months and once daily for another few months, and then stopped completely.  This gradual tapering of medicines helps in bringing about a prolonged remission of affected individuals for the treatment of aplastic anemia.  This disease, which is considered currently incurable and has a high mortality rate, can be treated quite satisfactorily with the help of Ayurvedic herbal medicines.  This is probably a major contribution of Ayurveda in the treatment of a serious medical condition like aplastic anemia.

Ayurvedic Herbal Treatment for Aplastic Anemia

Aplastic anemia is a medical condition resulting from bone marrow failure in which the production of red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets decreases drastically.  Nearly 80% of individuals affected with aplastic anemia have some acquired cause of the disease which includes infectious diseases, toxic exposure, drug reactions, and unknown factors.  A severely dysfunctional immune system is believed to be the cause for aplastic anemia.  Common symptoms for this condition include severe anemia, bleeding, fever, and infections.

Ayurvedic herbal treatment for aplastic anemia is aimed at treating the known cause of the condition, improving the immune status of the affected individual, and giving medicines which act on the bone marrow.  Treating the dysfunctional immune status of the individual is of utmost importance, since a strong immunity can help bring about an early reversal of symptoms and a complete cure.  Ayurvedic herbal medicines which act directly on the bone marrow and stimulate it to produce the normally required amount of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, are used in high doses for prolonged periods.

In addition, medicines which act on the liver and spleen as well as the blood tissue are also used in combination with the above-mentioned medicines.  This combination treatment helps in an earlier remission from the symptoms of aplastic anemia, brings about an early cure, and prevents recurrence of the condition.  The use of Ayurvedic immunomodulatory herbal agents reduces the treatment time and helps in maintaining the strength, stamina and vitality of the affected individual.

Ayurvedic herbal treatment can also be given as supportive treatment in addition to modern conventional treatment.  Treatment with Ayurvedic herbal medicines is normally required for a period of about six to nine months, in order to bring about significant improvement in the affected individual.

Ayurvedic herbal treatment can thus be judiciously utilised in the management and treatment of aplastic anemia.
