Traditional plant treatments have been used throughout the world for the therapy of diabetes mellitus. Among many medications and polyherbal plants, several herbs have been known to cure and control diabetes; additionally they have no side effects.

The present study was taken up to scientifically evaluate the various physicochemical parameters to standardize the formulation. To evaluate various physicochemical parameters including ash values, moisture content, extractive values, chemical test, microscopy thin layer chromatography (TLC) for standardization of VatiIngredients were identified. Physicochemical standards were loss on drying, pH, ash values, extractive values documented. Qualitative chemical tests designated the presence of alkaloid, glycoside, tannins, and steroids.
