The Nutraceutical Industry still thinks that either R&D is too expensive for them or it is difficult to conduct due to lack of facilities, standards, marker compounds, methods, etc.

Vedic Lifesciences Pvt. Ltd was founded in 2000 to change the way the Natural Products Industry would think about Research.

Vedic Lifesciences Pvt. Ltd is a Contract Research and Consulting Firm focused on Natural Products. Our competencies include designing, monitoring and reporting the experimental studies contracted out to us. All consultancy projects are conducted in-house. We take pride in our deep understanding of Natural Product Chemistry, Analytical techniques, Pharmaceutical Technology and Pharmacological Investigations. In addition, we have understandings with various premier Research Institutes, University departments, Private sector Labs, Animal house facilities and large Hospitals for contracting out the full spectrum of work that we take up. All these facilities meet the compliance levels required for international quality work. Some of our laboratories have handled up to Industrial scale processes and are thus conversant with "real - world" issues concerning quality and testing of herbal raw and finished materials. Some are Government of India approved (NABL) while others hold GLP, ISO and other international certifications.

All our Clinical Studies are conducted as per GCP guidelines (ICH and Indian) in large government or approved private hospitals after due Ethics Committee approvals. Our Investigators have years of experience in evaluating pharmaceuticals and biologicals and most have dedicated teams to assist in conduct of the trial. Our monitors who have the requisite experience to ensure GCP adherence, supervise trial sites, records, etc. Our reports are well accepted internationally and our satisfied clients include companies in the herbal and pharmaceutical sectors.

We are ISO 9001:2000 Certified and some of our Phase II projects have been audited by independent European GCP Auditors. We have conducted a large number of Phase II Human trials on herbal supplements from US, Netherlands, France, Germany, Taiwan, Hong Kong and India. Our Preclinical studies include Animal Efficacy, Toxicology and Product Standardization work for companies in several parts of the world. Some of our work has been published in International journals and others are under publication. Please refer to the other links for details about our Personnel, Advisors, Partners and Assignments.
