Malaria has been treated with traditional medicines for thousands of years. Artemisinin and quinine derivatives are the source of the two most effective groups of modern antimalarial drugs. The increasing drug resistance, the cost of treatment and difficulties in remote areas to access the conventional drugs has made ayurvedic herbal remedies an important and sustainable source of treatment. Several herbal remedies are effective in the treatment of malaria.

(1.) Ayurveda (Herbal Remedies) for Malaria Treatment:-

♦ In quartan malarial fever, lime and lemon are effective. Take a mixture of three grams of lime and a juice of 1 lemon dissolved in about 60 ml of water before you suspect the attack is about to take place.

♦ Chirayata (Swertia chirata) can be beneficial in the treatment of an intermittent type of malarial fevers. Chirayata (15 gm), along with aromatics like cloves and cinnamon immersed in water, given in doses of 15 to 30 ml helps in lowering the temperature.

♦ Alum can give relief if you take powdered alum in divided doses before the expected attack.

♦ Leaves of holy basil are also beneficial in the treatment of malaria and can check the severity of the disease. Holy basil leaf mixed with three grams of black pepper powder can be beneficial in the cold stage of the malarial fever.
