Standardization is an essential measurement for ensuring the quality control of the herbal drugs and to have a good coordination between the quality of raw materials, in process materials and the final products. The present paper reports the standardization of Triphala Churna which is mainly used for constipation, indigestion and other abdominal problems. Triphala is an ayurvedic herbal formulation containing three fruits (also known as three myrobalans) in equal proportions. The Churna have been standardized on the basis of various physicochemical parameters. The tests parameters were found to be satisfactory and within the standard limits. Triphala churna and can be used as reference standards for the quality control/ quality assurance study mostly on plant drugs for their primary healthcare needs. The results obtained may be considered as tools for assistance to the regulatory authorities, scientific organization and manufacturers for developing standard formulations of great efficacy.
