More than 50% of diabetic wounds can increase the risk of amputation, if proper & fast treatment is not provided. This study is an attempt to bring ayurveda from laboratory to practice. Objectives: Development of the standard manufacturing process of polyherbal gel with selected ingredients & analysis of the study drug physico-chemically to develop its standard. Methods: Pharmaceutical development of polyherbal gel from Durva (Cynodondactylon), Nimba (Azadirachtaindica), Haridra (Curcuma longa), Daruharidra (Berberisaristata)&Yashtimadhu (Glycyrrhizaglabra) & physico – chemical analysis was done by different parameters e.g., physical appearance, pH, skin irritation test, rancidity test, homogeneity etc. Results: In terms of standardization pH of gel was ≤ 6 (acidic) which would be healthy for better recovery of wounds. The gel was homogenous, skin compatible & no rancidity seen. Conclusion: Topical applications have faster & better results than oral medications.
