The Pharmaceutical industry in Siddha medicine meets a challenge to deliver the quality of
medicine at each dose level due to the handmade preparations & processes as mentioned in
Siddha system of medicines. The present work aims to survey, the selected tablets available
in the market and study important quality parameters like, Disintegration test (DT) & Weight
Variation (WV) as per the Indian pharmacopeia. The major Siddha market samples
(Brahmananda Bairavam, Swasa Kudori Mathirai, Santha Chandrodayam, Vasantha
Kusumakaram, Murukkanvidai, Vishnu chakram, Kungumapoo, Neerkovai, Balasanjeevi,
Lavankathi) purchased from Different manufactures (B1, B2, B3, B4) and the DT (37±2°C,
45±2°C) & WV performed. The results indicate intake of Tablets with slight warm water will
improve the tablet disintegration of Brahmananda Bairavam, Swasa Kudori Mathirai, Santha
Chandrodayam, Vasantha Kusumakaram, Kungumapoo, Neerkovai, Balasanjeevi,
Lavankathi. But there is no impact on Vishnu chakram & Murukkanvidai by using slight
warm water. The results of DT (37.5°C) of Balasanjeevi (B4), Santha Chandrodayam (B4),
Swasa Kudori Mathirai (B1, B2, B4), (B4) complies (within 15 minutes). The results of DT
(45°C) of Balasanjeevi (B2, B4), Brahmananda Bairavam(B4), Santha Chandrodayam (B2,
B4), Swasa Kudori Mathirai (B1, B2, B4), Vasantha Kusumakaram (B4), Vishnu chakram
(B4), Kungumapoo (B2, B4) complies. The results of WV interoperated in statically T-test,
Quality Control (±3 s analysis) & the results implicated deviating from the control,
specification limits. These tests bring out the errors, misbranded and bad quality of markedly
available products & there is a need to improve regulatory standards to ensure the therapeutic
and quality goals.
