Pharmaceutical standardization ofKamsaharitakigranules.
BACKGROUND
Kamsaharitaki Avalehais a well-known ayurvedic preparation. Considering certain inconveniences ofAvaleha, an attempt has been made to convert it into granules that are convenient in handling, dispensing, and storage.


OBJECTIVE
To convertKamsaharitaki Avalehainto granules form and develop standard manufacturing procedure.


METHODS
Seven pilot batches were prepared to fix the ratio of formulation composition. The procedure was repeated for 14 times to ensure the process validation.


RESULTS
Converting into granules in presence of jaggery andHaritakipulp is found to be difficult. Replacing these two withKhanda SharkaraandHaritakipowder yielded desired characteristics of granules.


CONCLUSIONS
This modified proportion of ingredients can be considered as standard in preparingKamsaharitaki Avalehagranules. As no manufacturing and physicochemical properties are available forKamsaharitakigranules; the current findings can be considered as standard for future studies.
