Standardization of Ayurvedic Products is difficult task as chemical or pharmaceutical composition of ingredients cannot be fixed.
Further, the companies mention doses in milligrams and consumers have no weighing balances to measure quantity medicine to be consumed.
Better mention one or two tablets to be consumed before or after meals or powders are to measured 5 or 10 gram spoons.
Actually a lot of research is required in Chemistry & biochemistry to identify chemical formulae & effect of quantity of drug on patient. more

I agree with the comments of of Sri Amitava Sur and Dilip Brahme. And in a country where even a simple, unambiguous and crisp law like the Right to Information Act has been murdered by the very information commissioners tasked, empowered, equipped and paid to enforce it and where even the daily use food items are dangerously contaminated with pesticides, insecticides and cheap adulterants by greedy mercenaries the task is enormous.
