One of the main questions which appear when shopping for Ayurvedic cough syrups or herbal medicine online is the following:
"Is this a genuine Ayurvedic medicine or it is only herbal supplement?"
With the variety of numerous products available on the market, it is essential to understand how to distinguish an Ayurvedic medicine from an herbal one. In the article below, you will find out why it is important and how to do this in the case of Kandamkulathy Vaidyasala.
Why This Is Important
There are many products available in the online marketplace, but not all of them are Ayurvedic medicines.
While some of the products available online might be called "herbal wellness supplements," there are no guarantees that it follows manufacturing and quality standards necessary for an Ayurvedic medicine to be considered such.
1. Check for the Licence
A good sign for an Ayurvedic medicine is a company manufacturing it having a licence under the Ministry of AYUSH and State AYUSH authorities.
Before buying a certain product, make sure that the manufacturer has:
AYUSH manufacturing license at AYUSH Mark Certification Scheme
Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) Kerala Drugs Control – GMP Services
Transparent information about the manufacturer
Batch number and manufacturing details
2. Check for Quality Certifications
Third-party certification is one of the best ways to gauge the quality of any product.
Kandamkulathy Vaidyasala has received the AYUSH Premium Mark certification, which is a voluntary certification provided by the Quality Council of India (QCI) backed by the Ministry of AYUSH. According to the certificate, the company has conformed to the Voluntary Certification Scheme for AYUSH Products, including product requirements and GMP requirements in accordance with WHO Guidelines. The validity of the certificate lies between 19 November 2023 to 18 November 2026.
This certifies that the company has made efforts to maintain recognized quality standards during manufacturing.
3. Find Out About the Company's History
Years of experience counts a lot in Ayurveda.
Kandamkulathy Vaidyasala has been practicing authentic Kerala Ayurveda since more than 150 years, blending traditional knowledge about Ayurveda with modern-day quality standards.
The company produces a variety of medicines and wellness products using Ayurveda while strictly maintaining quality control during the process of production.
4. Carefully Read the Product Label
An authentic Ayurvedic medicine must state:
Name of the product
List of ingredients used
Dosage
Details about the manufacturer
Batch number
Date of manufacture
Expiry date
Quantity
Storage conditions
5. Purchase from Only Authentic Sources
To ensure authenticity, always buy from:
Official websites of companies
Authorized distributors
Legitimate pharmacies
Online markets
Direct purchasing will help to avoid counterfeits.

How to Authenticate Any Ayurvedic Medicine

Is it a licensed manufacture?
GMP compliances
Quality certifications
Transparent information regarding the manufacture and products
Legitimate channels of selling
If all these answers are affirmative, then you are more likely to get a genuine Ayurvedic Medicine than any unauthenticated herbal preparation.
