Abstract
The aim of this study was to formulate mouth dissolving tablets from Ayurvedic polyherbal powder Sitopaladi. Sitopaladi is a traditional Ayurvedic powder preparation well known and effective in relieving coughs associated with various respiratory disorders. Being a powder the administration of accurate dose with ease is a problem. Furthermore it needs water and chances of spoilage and waste are more. Oro-dispersible tablet which rapidly disintegrating in mouth will be the best remedy for efficient use of Sitopaladi. Using various excipients like super-disintegrants and sweeteners, different formulation of anti-tussive drug Sitopaladi were formulated by direct compression method. The acceptable formulation, among all the developed formulations of oro-dispersible tablet was having a disintegrating time of 1 min and 30 sec and acceptable taste. Thus the study concludes that formulation of oro-dispersible tablets of ayurvedic powder preparation can be a good option to enhance acceptability, efficiency and easy and accurate administration of powder ayurvedic preparations like Sitopaladi.
