Pediatrician Questions Ayurvedic medication

When is it safe to start Ayurvedic medication for kids?

My son is 7 years old and has asthma. I have been thinking of starting him on Ayurvedic medication rather than what our GP gives him. Is there a right time to start him on Ayurvedic medication?

I think it best to talk to your Pediatrician about it. Or somebody with experience in using these medicines.
This is an holistic therapy with no known proven benefits for asthma. I would not recommend stopping his asthma medications. He can die from an asthma attack and this needs prescribed medication. Children can go a long time without an attack and seem ok but this does not mean their asthma has gone away.
