Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Indian Fagonia (Fagonia indica), also known as Dhamasa, has a history of use in traditional medicine systems such as Ayurveda and Unani. It has been valued primarily for its purported antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, and hepatoprotective properties. While there are anecdotal and traditional reports suggesting its use for general well-being and nervous system support, explicit references to its use in treating or supporting depression are limited and not well-documented in classical texts. There is a lack of robust scientific evidence or clinical trials directly investigating the antidepressant effects of Indian Fagonia. Some preliminary phytochemical studies suggest the presence of flavonoids and saponins that might exert neuroprotective or adaptogenic effects, which could conceivably influence mood or stress, but these have not been specifically studied in the context of depression. Therefore, while Indian Fagonia may be used traditionally for a variety of ailments and to promote overall health, its use for depression is not strongly justified by either tradition or science, and any such application should be approached with caution until further research is conducted.
