        abstract = {This study uses giloy (Tinospora cordifolia), a potent medicinal plant that is commonly used in Ayurveda, to prepare and assess a herbal liniment. Giloy is well-known for its pain-relieving, anti-inflammatory, immune-stimulating, and antipyretic qualities. In order to facilitatee the components' rapid skin absorption, the liniment was created with Giloy extract, eucalyptus oil, camphor, and menthol combined with an isopropyl alcohol base. The liniment is designed for external application to reduce stiffness, edema, joint discomfort, and muscular soreness. It was made by soaking Giloy stems in alcohol to extract the active ingredients, a process known as maceration. The finished product's color, texture, pH, odor, and stability over time were all evaluated.
The findings demonstrated that the Giloy liniment was non-greasy, had a pleasant scent, and produced a cooling effect when applied. It did not split or change hue; it stayed steady. A natural and safe substitute for medications that use chemicals to treat pain could be this herbal liniment. especially for individuals who choose plant-based or Ayurvedic therapies.},
