The present study focuses on the standardization and formulation development of a herbal tablet utilizing a polyherbal powder blend comprising Sida cordifolia (Bala Moola), Cuminum cyminum (Jeeraka), and Zingiber officinale (Shunthi). The churna, consisting of selected medicinal herbs, was prepared by authenticating, drying, powdering, and blending in prescribed ratios. Tablets were formulated through powder processing, granulation, and compression techniques. The final product was evaluated for physical characteristics such as bulk density, tapped density, angle of repose, Hausner ratio, and Carr’s index to assess powder flow and compressibility. The tested physical parameters indicate good quality and suitability of the churna powder for tablet formulation. This work highlights the importance of stringent quality controls, providing a model for integrating traditional herbal medicines into reliable tablet formulations suitable for contemporary therapeutic use.
