Nilavembu or kalmegha is famous for its #antipyretic
# anti-inflammatory
#analgesic
#body cleansing properties
But its improper usge in chikungunya and dengue condition leads to diarrhoea and vomiting.
It is also best avoided by pregnant women. Nilavembu might interact with pressure, immunosuppressan and anticoagulant medications....
So for proper dosage and long term usage medical supervision is must.
Since the query is on preventive aspects and also you are on feeding can go for better choices
#like thulsi / black pepper boiled water. #Include more garlic and turmeric in diet also u can make a paste of both and form small boluses for intake.
