How to get rid of the sleeping pills
Because these pills become habit, with time. It becomes challenging to get rid of these pills for anyone. I meet many patients who are suffering with all the possible complications of these medicines. And all of these patients wanted to get rid of these medicines.
At Sukhayu Ayurved, we follow an approach to do so. And this approach comes from Charak Samhita itself.
उचितादहिताद्धीमान् क्रमशो विरमेन्नरः| हितं क्रमेण सेवेत क्रमश्चात्रोपदिश्यते||३६||
Charak Samhita Chapter 7 Sutra Sthan
प्रक्षेपापचये ताभ्यां क्रमः पादांशिको भवेत्| एकान्तरं ततश्चोर्ध्वं द्व्यन्तरं त्र्यन्तरं तथा||३७||
क्रमेणापचिता दोषाः क्रमेणोपचिता गुणाः| सन्तो यान्त्यपुनर्भावमप्रकम्प्या भवन्ति च||३८||
On first day: Decrease 1/4th
Second day: decrease the 1/2
On third day: decrease the 1/2
On fourth day: decrease the 3/4th
Fifth day and Sixth day follow the same as fourth day.
On Seventh day the bad habit should be completely voided.
In this process with the same process, one need to increase the good practice. So that this replacement can be completed with in just a span of 7 days.
We at Sukhayu Ayurved, follow the same process to achieve getting rid of the sleeping pills. This is the most scientific way to get rid of any bad thing and to start a good thing.
