Abstract
Ayurveda is the ancient system of medicine and whole world is looking forward towards Ayurveda for health care needs. The problem of adulteration is a challenge in front of Ayurveda fraternity. Although, pharmacognostical and phytochemical parameters are available now a days to determine the quality of drugs but it is not practically feasible for patients and practitioners to go for pharmacognostical screening of drugs before use every time. Ancient sages of Ayurveda had given the solution in the form of synonyms. They had coined the synonyms that describe the part used of the drug appropriately. Synonyms were coined in the form that they described the most peculiar feature of the drug. The present paper will explore the potential of synonyms as a tool of quality assurance.
