What are the factors to be considered before combining different plant materials in a new herbal compound formulation ?
The healing potential of individual plant material, likely reactions between components in the plant material, the target ailment, among others.
Key factors need to be considered before such combinations are :
- Herb-Herb interactions (positive or negative)
- Synergism/ Antagonism
- Relative compatibility and biocompatibility of herbs
- Ratio or proportion of ingredients
- Pharmacodynamic & Pharmacokinetic principles of individual herbs
- Nature and form of drugs, etc.
