Hi,
Welcome to HCM!
No, both ashwagandha and brahmi are ayurvedic medicines and don't cause any harm. Anxiety is unlikely to be a side effect due to these drugs. Are you using any other drug as well?
I'd suggest you to wait for few days. The symptoms will probably decrease. If not, then you may consider and stop the medicine as side effects of ayurvedic medicines are unpredictable at times.
Hope that has solved your query. Feel free to ask for any doubt.
Wish you a speedy recovery.
Regards,
Dr. Sridhar Reddy
