PHARMACEUTICO ANALYTICAL STUDY OF AMALAKYAVLEHA

Abstract

Panduroga has been well known to Indian people the since Vedic eras. It is explained in complete detail by the Acharyas of Ayurveda as a specific disease with its pathogenesis and treatment. In panduroga, the colour of the body gets changed to pale, sclera, nail, tongue, etc. Due to Rakta-Alpata, haemoglobin level decreases from the normal level. It is linked with both important Dhatus, i.e., Rasa and Rakta. It is represented as anaemia, recognised as the world’s second important cause of disability and responsible for about one million deaths a year. Recently, physicians preferring ayurvedic medicines to manage panduroga as these formulations are considered safe compared to modern treatment. Hence, the present study was undertaken to standardize the compound Ayurvedic formulation through Pharmaceutical and analytical evaluation. The sample was subjected for various analytical parameters like water soluble extractive, alcohol soluble extractive, ash value, loss on drying, pH, Total sugar and Reducing sugar. Thus, the pharmaceutical characters achieved may provide guidelines for standardization of Amalakyavaleha formulation.
