        abstract = {Herbal formulations have gained wide acceptance due to their safety, therapeutic efficacy, and improved patient compliance. Chewable tablets offer advantages such as ease of administration, good palatability, rapid disintegration, and suitability for pediatric and geriatric populations. The present study aimed to formulate and evaluate herbal chewable tablets containing Amla, Orange peel, and Turmeric to deliver nutritionally and therapeutically active phytoconstituents. Herbal powders were prepared and subjected to phytochemical screening, followed by formulation of chewable tablets using suitable excipients by direct compression. The prepared tablets were evaluated for pre- and post-compression parameters, including physical properties, assay of marker compounds, in-vitro dissolution, and stability studies as per ICH guidelines. The optimized formulation exhibited acceptable hardness, low friability, rapid disintegration, uniform content, satisfactory dissolution, and good palatability, with no significant changes during stability studies. The results indicate that the developed herbal chewable tablet is a stable, effective, and patient-friendly nutraceutical formulation with antioxidant and health-promoting benefits.},
