Quality evaluation and standardization of Adraka Khanda: An Ayurvedic formulation

Abstract

Ayurveda, the antique therapeutic system of India promotes a combination of lifestyle management (which includes diet, exercise and medication) and treatment with specific herbs and minerals to cure various diseases. The effect of Ayurvedic drugs are purely based on surveillance and seem subjective without valid scientific backing.

Reliable quality control protocols for Ayurvedic formulations using modern techniques of analysis are extremely important [2]. Present scenario has changed now as compared to the ancient time. Presently the medicines of Ayurvedic system of medicine are being manufactured on the huge level in Pharmaceutical companies, where manufacturers come across many problems such as qualitative and authentic raw drugs, Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), availability of standards as well as proper protocol for standardization of both medicinal plants and developed formulations
