Aim: The ability of four formulations based on natural medicine, homeopathic, dietary supplements and ayurvedic herbs in different combinations to reduce the complications of TN was investigated with comparative evaluation. Materials __ampersandsignamp; Methods: The study was performed through survey. Questionnaire related to demographic and illness information with TN patient__ampersandsignrsquo;s feedback on the formulations after use, was prepared and randomly sent to the patients, who have received the treatment at the clinic. The responses were collected electronically and detailed statistical analysis was carried out to evaluate the outcome of the treatment. Results: Combinations of all four Biogetica__ampersandsignreg; formulations showed more potential in reducing the disease complications. The treatment with these formulations also displayed improvement in the patient__ampersandsignrsquo;s ability to perform physical activities. Furthermore, no side effects were observed for these formulations after treatment. The combination of 4 biogetica formulas improved the health rate of 68%TN patients. Such results have not been seen in any Drug treatment or__ampersandsignnbsp;gamma knife__ampersandsignnbsp;Surgery. Maximum number of patients (26) got the positive result in about 15 to 45 days. But, interestingly, 21 patients got their pain relieved within 15 days of time. Conclusion: The combination of natural medicine, homeopathic, dietary supplements and ayurvedic herbs are effective in alleviating the complications of TN without any adverse effects. Therefore, Biogetica__ampersandsignreg; formulations can be used safely in the treatment of TN.__ampersandsignnbsp;
