Abstract
The aim of this study is to prepare Gymnema sylvestre elixir by using leaf extract. In this study Sodium Saccharin, methyl paraben and propyl paraben was taken as polymer.

The elixirs were prepared by using Sodium Saccharin, Glycerin and Alcohol etc. The elixirs were evaluated for FTIR, Viscosity, PH, Refractive Index, Alcohol Content, Assay and In-Vivo Study. In this preparation of the elixir is going to prepare by the simple solution method. It is a clear, sweetened, hydroalcoholic liquid intended for oral use.
