Pharmaceutical preparations containing Aesculus hippocastanum L., Hypericum perforatum L., Paullinia cupana H.B.K. and Ginkgo biloba L. have large market. In this work the quality of the powder or extracts of these plants were evaluated. Pharmacopoeia methods or those cited on cientific literature for quantification of active substances were employed and the data showed them to be adequate for these analyses.
