ABSTRACT Ayurvedic medicines are the combinations of selected herbal/crude drugs and are manufactured under different pharmaceutical processes to result in various dosage forms such as churnas, bhasmas, liquid, lehas, pill, tablet etc. Churna is defined as a fine powder of drug or drugs in ayurvedic system of medicine. Drugs mentioned in patha are cleaned properly, dried thoroughly, pulverized and then sieved. The churna is free flowing and retains its potency for one year, if preserved in airtight containers. Churna formulations are similar to powder formulations in allopathic system of medicine. In recent days churna is formulated into tablets in order to fix the dose easily. These forms of medicament are prescribed generally because of their particle size. Smaller the particle size greater is the absorption rate from g.i.t and hence the greater is bioavailability. Aim of this article to give a detail account on some parameter use for standardization of churna commercially prepared and marketed. Keywords: Churn, Bioavailability, Medicine, Parameter.
