Avoid mixing medicines. In current scenario it is advisable that you quickly get tested for covid-19 by RTPCR and CT chest. Self isolate till your reports come. Take care.

Get a CT CHEST done first along with RT PCR.. Ayurveda is never an answer to anything unless you want to harm yourself in the long run.. If you turn up positive for COVID then you need to start treatment for that.. Since you haven't discussed about your present psychiatry symptoms, I assume you are doing fine and don't need to alter the medications..
