1. Ginseng tablet was prepared to treat diabetes mellitus using ginseng powder as the active ingredient. Ginseng contains ginsenosides which are thought to have anti-diabetic effects by regulating insulin secretion, glucose uptake, and reducing inflammation and free radicals. 2. The tablet was prepared following a procedure that involved mixing ginseng powder with lactose starch and magnesium stearate then compressing the powder. 3. The tablet is indicated for treating diabetes by increasing insulin production, enhancing blood sugar uptake in cells, and providing antioxidant protection.
