(Lamiaceae)</em> is known as a true lemon balm and is popularly used in traditional medicine as a tranquilizer. The present research aimed to propose a source of syrup based on the tincture of <em>M. officinalis</em> and perform preliminary and accelerated stability tests, and microbiological evaluation. The leaves of <em>M. officinalis</em> were collected and after botanical identification, the raw material processing step was followed to obtain the dye. The tincture obtained was used to prepare the syrup based on <em>M. Officinalis</em>. The syrup was used as steps of physical-chemical and microbiological quality control. It was found that the <em>M. Officinalis</em> syrup, in the analysis of pH, organoleptic characteristics, density, volume, and microbiological assay, is by the consulted literature. The observed results indicate that the syrup of <em>M. Officinalis</em> is within the defined parameters, which guarantees the patient the efficacy and safety of the herbal medicine.</p>}, number={1}, journal={American Scientific Research Journal for Engineering, Technology, and Sciences}, author={Gabriella Clemente Rosa Podgurski and Daiany Fonseca Barboza and Mireia Aparecida Bezerra Pereira and Dallib Diogo Souza and Tamara Rodrigues de Sousa and Erica Eugênio Lourenço Gontijo and Millena Pereira Xavier and Fabio Pegoraro and Haroldo Silva Ripardo Filho and Vera Lucia Cavalcante and Nelita Gonçalves Faria de Bessa and Andreisa Prieb and Mosaniel Falcão de França Junior and Jaqueline Cibene Moreira Borges}, year={2022}, month={Oct.}, pages={185–194} }
