Brief Summary
|
Ithrifal Muqil, a traditional polyherbal Unani formulation, has been clinically used for over six decades at Arignar Anna Hospital for Indian Medicine to manage Dyslipidaemia (Dasumath-e-Dam), such as obesity, known case of diabetes , and hypothyroidism. Despite its long-standing use in routine care, there is currently no robust scientific evidence to validate its effectiveness, safety, or mechanisms of action.
Purpose of the Trial:
This single-arm clinical study aims to systematically evaluate Ithrifal Muqil’s ability to alleviate lipid profile levels and improve patient well-being. By documenting outcomes in a real-world clinical setting, the trial seeks to bridge the gap between traditional practice and evidence-based medicine, providing data to support its continued use or inform future research. |
