Arjunarishta, also known as Parthadyarista, is an Ayurvedic formulation used for cardiovascular disorders. It strengthens the heart muscle and promotes the functioning of cardiac muscles by regulating blood pressure (BP) and cholesterol[1].
Arjuna, the chief ingredient of Arjunarishta, in Ayurveda is used for alleviating angina (a type of heart-related chest pain) and other cardiovascular conditions. According to Ayurveda, Arjunarishta has Hridya (cardiac tonic) property which helps improve heart function properly. It also helps to control high cholesterol levels due to its Deepan (appetizer) and Pachan (digestive) properties. These properties help remove accumulated bad cholesterol and maintain normal blood cholesterol levels. In addition to that, Arjunarishta helps to balance Kapha and remove excess mucus from the lungs, providing relief from the symptoms of asthma.
Arjunarishta comes in a liquid/syrup form. You can take 15-20ml Arjunarishta or as directed by the physician to get relief from heart problems. Mix it with equal amounts of lukewarm water to dilute its taste a little. Take it once or twice a day, preferably after meals.
Arjunarishta is generally well tolerated and does not have any side effects when taken in the recommended dose. However, it is advisable to consult the doctor before using Arjunarishta.
