The present research relates to an herbal gel formulation comprising: 0.1 to 1 % w/v of a Lantana camara leaves extract; 0.1 to 5 % w/v of a thickening agent; 0.1 to 1 % w/v of a preservative; 0.1 to 5 % v/v of a buffering agent; 1 to 10 % v/v of a stabilizer; and rest being a vehicle. The current study systematically evaluate several combinations of Lantana camara extract with different natural excipients in order to develop a stable and efficacious herbal gel. In addition, the present research includes a comprehensive examination of the rheological characteristics of the gel to ideal skin contact and absorption, hence satisfying the need for in-vivo effectiveness investigations.
