Abstract: Menopause is an inevitable physiological stage in women’s life comes between late forties and early fifties when characterized with multisystem assortment known as menopausal syndrome. Women are suffering more from menopausal syndrome due to sedentary modern lifestyle and seeking for its remedies. The present study had been planned to evaluate a standard pharmacognostical and pharmaceutical profile of Rasayanakalpa Vati. Study included preparation of Rasayanakalpa Vati following all SOPs using raw drugs which were previously authenticated and then Rasayanakalpa Vati was subjected for pharmacognostical, physicochemical and high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) as per standard protocols. Pharmacognostical findings were matched with that of individual raw drugs with no major changes in the microscopic structures of the raw drugs during preparation of Vati. The quality of Rasayanakalpa Vati can be tested by series of pharmacognostical and physicochemical screening for the observation of the present study.
