Since these medicines are prepared from materials of plant origin they are prone to, deterioration and variation in composition. Extremely limited knowledge about the ingredients in the herbal drug formulations and their effects in humans, the lack of stringent quality control and the heterogeneous nature of these preparations all necessitate the continuous monitoring of the safety of the herbal products. The World Health Organization has recognized the importance of traditional medicine and has created strategies, guidelines and standards for botanical medicines. It is necessary to develop methods for rapid precise and accurate identification and estimation of active constituents in order to bring out consistency of important constituents in the formulations.
