title: [Development of rapid-dissolution armillarisin-A tablet and study on its choleretic action in rats].
abstract: For increasing the choleretic action of armillarision-A, a new formulation of rapid-dissolution tablet (A) was developed. The effect of A, a marketed amillarisin-A tablet (B) and a armillarisin-A Na sterile power (C) on rats biliation in vivo were investigated. The dissolution rates of A and B were also determined. The results demonstrate that the choleretic action of A is equal to C but superior to B, and the dissolution rate of A is higher than B. Moreover, the armillarisin-A dissolved percentage of A in vitro at time t was well correlated with the biliation net accumulative amount in vivo at time 3t.
