Dabur's ayurvedic products have no Indian AYUSH action against them in the sources we checked. Dabur Chyawanprash is not banned. On 6 Nov 2025 the Delhi High Court (Justice Tejas Karia), in Dabur India v Patanjali Ayurved, restrained Patanjali from calling all other chyawanprash 'dhoka'. Dabur was the plaintiff.

The US FDA's import alert 66-41 for unapproved drugs lists Dabur India for Hajmola and Fem bleach (2024). The alert allows the FDA to detain the goods at the US border. It is a US measure, not an Indian action, and it applies to the entries named, not to Dabur's other products.

What this means for you

The US entries are about the US market

An import alert lets the US FDA detain goods at its border. It applies to what is shipped to the US.

Chyawanprash

The only court order on record on Dabur Chyawanprash was won by Dabur and concerns a rival's advertising.

This is a record of official orders, not medical advice. Do not stop a prescribed medicine without asking your doctor or pharmacist.

Common questions

Is Dabur banned in any country?

No ban is on record. The only foreign entries we found are the 2024 US FDA unapproved-drug import-alert entries for Hajmola and Fem bleach.
