Unani Medicine and Siddha Medication

Unani medicine, also known as Yunani medicine, is a Perso-Arabic traditional medicine practiced in Muslim cultures in South Asia and Central Asia today. Unani medicine is a pseudoscientific system of medicine.

Because the Perso-Arabic system of medicine was based on the teachings of Greek physicians Hippocrates and Galen, the term Ynn means "Greek."

Siddha medicine is one of India's oldest medicinal traditions. Siddha is the mother medicine of the peninsular South Indian Tamils/Dravidians. Siddha is a Sanskrit word that means "confirmed truth." Siddhars were those who were involved in the establishment of such a Siddha school of thought.
