Andrographispaniculata (King of Bitters) and Allium ascalonicum (Shallot) was evaluated. The main aim was to assess the
formula’s chemical, physical and phytochemical aspects. The herbal formulationwas evaluated using visual and organoleptic
methods, thin-layer chromatography (TLC), pH measurement, trace element analysis, screening for phytochemicals, observing
antioxidant activity with the DPPH assay and checks for total phenolic acid (TPA) content. An analysis by TLC found at least
three areas present. Trace elements Pb, Cd, Fe and Zn were found to be within acceptable levels at 0.053, 0.003, 1.190 and
4.190 mg/L, respectively. It was confirmed through phytochemical screening that anthraquinones, tannins, terpenoids,saponins
(2.12% w/w), alkaloids (2.45% w/w) and flavonoids (49.45% w/w) were present in the plant. According to the DPPH assay, the
antioxidant activity was low and the corresponding IC?? was 2646.82 ± 58.24 µg/mL. The total phenolic acid in the extract was
0.0184 ± 0.0005 mg GAE/g</Abstract><Email>vedavarshan19@gmail.com</Email><articletype>Research</articletype><volume>15</volume><issue>2</issue><year>2025</year><keyword> Antioxidant, Formulation, Plants, Herbal</keyword><AUTHORS>Veda Varshan M.P, Dr. Akila C.R, Dr. Purushothaman M</AUTHORS><afflication>KLR Pharmacy College, Paloncha, Badradri Kothagudem.Dist-507115, Telangana, India,KLR Pharmacy College, Paloncha, Badradri Kothagudem.Dist-507115, Telangana, India,KLR Pharmacy College, Paloncha, Badradri Kothagudem.Dist-507115, Telangana, India</afflication></Article></Articles>
