Introduction:- Sickle cell anemia is a term for a group of genetic diseases characterized by the production of hemoglobin (Hb) "S". This is the result of replacing the base pair thymine at the 6th position of the β-globin gene on chromosome 11 with adenine and replacing valine with glutamic acid. A single amino acid substitution is the reason for the profound changes in the stability and solubility of the hemoglobin "S" molecule. Due to its chronic nature and painful crisis, children’s quality of life is difficult. From now on, there is no final treatment other than a successful bone marrow transplant. Its symptoms and the nature of the disease can be compared with Pandu. If a drug improves the quality of life and maintains the health of the patient, then the drug and efforts will be beneficial to society.

Metoclopramide HCl are used to reduce vomiting and nausea. The availability on the market in the form of tablet, syrup and injection. Patient tend to prefer take drugs by oral use because it was easier. Chewable tablet is the new product as the alternative ways to treatment children and adult patient who had difficulity problem of swallowing drugs. Objectives: This research aims to formulate the chewable metoclopramide HCl tablets using diluent variations to get a better physical quality test. Chewable tablets of metoclopramide HCl are made using diluent variations, they are mannitol, sucrose, lactose. Formula I mannitol, formula II sucrose, and formula III lactose. Chewable tablet preparations are made by the wet granulation method. Data collection was performed on physical characteristics including organoleptic, weight uniformity, uniformity of size, tablet hardness, tablet fragility, disintegration time, metoclopramide HCl levels. Physical quality test results were statistically analyzed to determine the effect of variations in the diluent on the characteristics of chewable tablets. The results of this research have an influence on the physical quality and uniformity of contents of various types of diluent variations between each formulation. In this research, fillers have an important role in the preparation of chewable metoclopramide tablets to determine the physical quality of the tablets and the uniformity of their contents. The variation of diluent that gives better results is mannitol. This is because formulas that use mannitol have uniformity in content that meets the requirements, faster disintegration time, and physical quality of tablets that still meet the requirements, when compared to the first and second formulations. The variation of diluent that gives better results is mannitol.

Herbal formulations are very useful for human health because of their natural and simple processing. A quality herbal formulation must pass the test for their characteristic properties. Inspite of the large number of Ayurvedic formulations are available in the market, standards of their quality are yet to be laid. Amlaka churnam or amalaki rasayanam is a swarasa bhavita, important herbal formulation used for treatment related to immunity systems of human body. In addition to this it is also used for nurturing of skin, heart, eye and stomach. The main ingredient of amalaka churnam is amla (Embalica officinalis) family Euphorbiaceae. Though amalaka churnam is described in many classical Ayurvedic granthas, but there are minor differences in their formulations. Also marketed formulations of amalaki rasayanam by manufacturers do not have description about its standardization.  Therefore, it is necessary to develop standard parameters for establishment of quality of the formulation. In this work, a standardization of herbal formulations of amalaka churnam is reported in terms of organoleptic evaluation of ingredients with rasayana formulation, loss of drying analysis, foreign matter, phytochemical screening, pH estimation, evaluation of ash value, extractive value and rheological evaluation. Keywords: Bhvit, amalaka Churnam, Organoleptic, rheological etc.

Medicine is an ancient science. In the modern sense, the medical profession began to form after bloodletting as a universal way of restoring the balance of bodily juices was replaced by more scientific and less crippling methods. But in medical practice it often happens that new methods of diagnosis and treatment get along with very ancient ones, and some traditional approaches, that previously had no reliable justification, receive solid scientific support. This historic process closely resembles the flow of water in a river: fast in the rapids, slow along the shores and sedentary in quiet creeks, at the bottom of which one can find shabby garbage brought by floods. All this is in a circuit – something disappears in the abyss, and something suddenly floats to the surface. The scandal in the USA with the recall of a medicine made from desiccated and dried porcine thyroid gland reminded us that some concoctions, which have been known since the times of ancient Chinese medicine, and drugs that appeared relatively recently thanks to modern pharmacology can easily coexist in clinical practice. With one essential caveat: the quality of such concoctions should be controlled as carefully as the newest drugs. Modern technologies have allowed us to analyze the genome of the inhabitants of our internal organs, that constitute the human microbiome. This made it possible to rehabilitate the concept of dysbacteriosis (dysbiosis), which was previously considered anti-scientific. For example, intestinal bacteria are able to compete with the host organism for selenium and even capable of aggravating its deficiency, as well as modulating the bioavailability of iodothyronines. It is possible that intestinal dysbiosis may be one of the causes of thyroxine malabsorption. All these and much more in this column “De Gustibus”.

The use of plants has a history as old as that on mankind himself and in the Traditional Persian Medicine many herbal formulations are reported for hair growth promotion as well as improvement in quality of hair. Objective: The aim of this study is to introduce the effective medicinal plants in Traditional Persian Medicine on graying hair that can be used in new products. Methods: The present study is an overview study and codified by the Library search method in the main sources of Traditional Persian Medicine. Results: After reviewing the selected book, we discovered that three types of formulation recommended for gray hair by traditional healers contain preventive, treatment and dying compounds. Our research indicated that the most frequently parts of the plants used in treatment and preventive compounds are leaves, seeds and fruit that are more used as topical oil or oral compound (electuaries). The majority of plants parts used in hair dyes are leaves, fruit and gum which all are used topically. Conclusion: synthetic based formulations may cause several side effects on human health and the increasing popularity of the herbal drugs in hair care products it is worthwhile to carry out systemic investigation on the efficacy of these formulations and their preparations.
