Ayurveda doctors, Online Ayurveda doctor, Online Herbalist, Online heatlh food store"When the road looks long, it's just a shadow. When the sky looks dark, it's only the clouds. And when life gets rough, it's only your troubles getting in the way. You just need to push your way through and you will see the road's not that long and the sky's not that dark and life is good."

This is what comes into mind when we begin talking about our MD Dr.Vikram Chauhan who is an energy booster for all the people working with him.

Education

Down to earth, he grew up in India in Chandigarh , northern Indian city also called “ The City Beautiful”. Highly qualified in his field as he did his BAMS (Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery) from Jalandhar and then went for his MD to Patiala. He is a Post graduate in Medicinal plants Pharmacognosy and Pharmacology.

His aims and objectives

He believes in taking the company Planet Ayurveda to the sky. We, who all are working as a team in Planet Ayurveda are convinced about our Managing Director Dr.Vikram Chauhan that he will reach for the stars as we find him with clear vision and goals. We are really taken by the words he has himself quoted in one of our recent meetings-- "I tend to keep away from people with 'negative side first' attitude and people whom I need to explain my jokes. I also don't get along well with people who stead fast to their dogmas and are not ready to reconsider/discuss about the same." So all in all he is a man of very positive approach and it is real fun working with him. Other than being a herbal entrepreneur, he is a wonderful physician as well. He has his own Clinic with the name "Planet Ayurveda" (www.planetayurveda.com) at Chandigarh where lot of people visit him everyday and he dedicatedly sits listening to them and satisfying their quest for longer, healthier and happier lives through his Ayurvedic insight.

We manufacture and market two main categories of Ayurvedic medicines - the traditional pharmacopeial preparations (roughly the equivalent of generics), and branded Patent & Proprietary' products (P&P) which are analogous to the branded formulations of modern medicine.

The traditional pharmacopeial medicines are manufactured with the specifications laid down in the Ayurvedic Formulary of India , the official compilation of the department of health Department of Family Welfare and Ministry of health, India.

Just as there are tablets, capsules, liquids, suspensions and powders in modern pharmacy the Ayurvedic dosage forms are termed Gutika, Taila, Avaleha, Asava, Arishta, Ark, Churna, Vati, Pishti and Rasayana.

All our pharmacopeial preparations are done in purely ayurvedic way as the Shastriya Paddhati is strictly followed. Shastriya Paddhati, literally 'the technique of the scriptures' is the equivalent of modern GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice). Some of the practices and equipments may be unique to Ayurveda, for example the Bhatti, a sort of traditional kiln-cum-oven using cow dung as its fuel.

It is in the manufacture of Patent & Proprietary Medicines, however, that there is a harmonious blend of the GMP and the Shastriya Paddhati.

After ascertaining the clinical efficacy of the product, often-employing modern diagnostic criteria such as serological tests, the product is modified if necessary, or is directly included in the corporate marketing plan.
