Abstract: Many ayurvedic formulations are available in the mark without any proper scientific evidence for its therapeutic effect. On this issue the Satpala ghrta was identified from the Indian Ayurvedic Formulary 2003, for which there were no scientific evidence to prove its efficacy in-order to standardize the formulation. Each ingredient possesses a unique therapeutic activity. Grahani (Malabsorption syndrome), Udara (Diseases of abdomen / enlargement of Abdomen), Gulma (Abdominal lump), pliha (Splenic disease), Jvara (Fever), kasa (Cough), Svasa (Dyspnoea/Asthma), pandu(Anaemia), pinasa (Chronic rhinitis/sinusitis), mandagni (Impaired digestive fire), svayathu (Oedema). To standardize this ayurvedic formulation a detailed report of the ingredients has to be determined and in the present article we have tried to give detailed properties, which can be useful to know the therapeutic effect after standardizing.
