Interventions

DRUG

DIAB-PHC1

a novel poly-herbal hard gelatin capsule formulation comprising Syzygium cumini, Momordica charantia, Wrightia tinctoria, and Gymnema sylvestre in a scientifically optimized ratio. Although each of these herbs is traditionally recognized for its individual anti-diabetic activity, their combination in a standardized dosage form has not previously been reported. The study further strengthens its novelty by conducting comprehensive pre-clinical safety evaluations, confirming the absence of toxicity before proceeding to controlled clinical investigations.

DRUG
