ABSTRACT
Ayurveda makes extensive use of an herbal medication called Lodhra. Its effects are broad-
spectrum across a range of illnesses. The churna version of Lodhra is the one that is used most
frequently. It must be evaluated promptly in order to preserve its purity and quality. It is
necessary to compare the phytochemical parameters with the accepted norms. Thus, Lodhra
churna's quality analysis and validation were carried out in this study and compared with the
medicine in its raw form. The study was carried out in the Central Research Facility of
KAHER’s Shri BMK Ayurveda Mahavidyalaya, Shahapur, Belagavi. The analytical parameters
that were assessed are organoleptic, physicochemical, phytochemical and microbial which
were found to be under normal limits when compared to the raw drug as per the API standards.
This ensures the quality and purity of the Lodhra churna.
