Abstract

Herbal drugs have been the drug of choice since ancient times to date as drugs are efficacious in the treatment of diseases. The common problems that arise with these medications are preservation and standardization. In this chapter, we have discussed preservation methods and their applicability, which can minimize research gap and increase the knowledge of different techniques that can be utilized for future research. The need of the hour is to disseminate the knowledge of herbal drug utilization with conceptualization for treating the disease.
