‘Samples of herbal preparations sent to Ayush lab for testing’
The Nellore district administration has suspended the distribution of ayurvedic medicine by a practitioner B. Anandaiah at Krishnapatnam village, pending a decision by the Ayush Department on the efficacy of the traditional system of medicine.
Collector K.V.N. Chakradhar Babu said the distribution of herbal preparations would not be allowed as it is in violation of the COVID safety norms, even as preliminary findings by a seven-member district-level committee comprising AYUSH doctors and officials found nothing harmful in the preparations.
“Further action will be taken by the Ayush Commissioner based upon the report of the AYUSH laboratory in Hyderabad to which the samples of the herbal preparations have been sent,” he said.
