Stereospermum suaveolens is one among Dashamoola group of herbs (group of 10 roots), used in many diseases like vata vikar, rakt vikar, pitta, hikka, vaman, shotha, kapha and aruchi.It belongs to family Bigniniaceae. The roots, leaves and flower are used for the treatment of diseases.These observations will be useful in establishing pharmacognostic standards on identification, purity, quality and classification of the plant. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate pharmacognostic studies for their macro, microcharacteristics and Preliminary phytochemical studies of Patala (Stereospermum suaveolens, Roxb, DC . Phytochemicals from the whole plant of Patala were extracted using ethanol and water as solvents. Phytochemical analysis of whole plant extract showed the presence of primary and secondary metabolites i.e.alkaloids, glycosides, steroids. All analytical parameters studied by the authors prove efficient in identification and authentication of the Patala.
