ABSTRACT
Aim: In different health-care field, priority was given to the usage of herbal products and herb-
based medicines as the treatment measure. This is an endeavor to establish the scientific basis of
one of the herbal formulations in Ayurveda “Simhyadi Kashaya Granules”. Physico-chemical
constants like pH, Acid insoluble ash values, Water soluble extract, Alcohol soluble extractive
values, Moisture content, total ash were found to be in acceptable range as per Ayurvedic
Pharmacopoeia of India Part l, Vol I. Analysis showed the presence of phenol, saponins and
carbohydrate. The macro-microscopical study, physico-chemical and phyto-chemical analysis,
HPTLC study results obtained confirmed the effectiveness and stability of the formulation. These
