Abstract: Background: A 32-year-old woman having earlier history of hyperthyroidism was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes with a random sugar level of 449 mg dL–1. Methodology: The doctor prescribed metformin HCl (1000 mg) with vildagliptin (50 mg) twice a day to patient and advised some blood tests including insulin, blood sugar, TSH, etc., after the end of 10 days medication followed by HbA1c test after next 3 days with continuous medication. On the basis of pathology reports, the doctor advised patient to continue with above medication for one more month. Results: The above treatment was not found satisfactory for the patient, as there was problem in maintaining the sugar level. However, after starting ayurvedic treatment with madhunashini vati and karela jamun swaras followed by yoga practice and morning walk, the patient started to recover very fast and within one month, she achieved normal blood sugar level. Conclusion: The ayurvedic treatment can be considered as most effective because of its ability to control blood sugar level and also having fewer side effects as compared to that of allopathic medicines.
