This study centers on the retrieval and analysis of almond gum and okra for their possible use as medicinal additives. Various measures were used to evaluate the extracted gum, including micrometric analyses, flow properties, organoleptic qualities, swelling index, ash value, Carr’s index, and Hausner ratio. Extracted okra gum had outstanding flow properties, as shown by its total ash content of 0.56% w/w, Carr’s index of 71.10%, and Hausner’s ratio of 3.46. The measured pH value was 6.9. Although the gum could not dissolve in organic solvents, it was able to dissolve in warm water. This indicates that the formulation of the chemical may be used without experiencing any negative consequences.
