Abstract

A Study on Attiver Pattai Choornam (Ficus racemosa) INTRODUCTION : Madhumegam (Diabetes Mellitus) is the most common of the serious metabolic diseases of humans. It is characterized by hyperglycemia with or without glycosuria resulting from absolute or relative deficiency of insulin. Lack of insulin affects the metabolism of carbohydrate, protein and fat and causes a significant disturbance of water and electrolyte homeostasis. AIM AND OBJECTIVES : AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of Attiver Pattai Chooranam (Ficus racemosa) in the management of Madhumegam. OBJECTIVES: • To Identify the Crude drug, • To study the Antimicrobial activity of the drug, • Bio Chemical analysis of the drug, • To study the Acute oral toxicity of the drug, • To study the Pharmacological activity of the drug (Anti-diabetic), • To evaluate the efficacy of the drug clinically. METHOD : 2g of the sample was soaked in 20ml of rectified spirit (90%) for 18 hrs and boiled for 10 minutes and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated and made upto 10ml. 5μl of alcoholic extract was applied on Merck Aluminium plate pre-coated with Silica gel 60F254 of 0.2 mm thickness along with the ingredients using Linomat IV applicator. The plate was developed in Toluene; ethyl acetate; formic acid 5:2.5:0.5 v/v. The plate was visualized in UV 254 and 366nm. In 366nm no visible spots are found The plate was then dipped in Vanillin –Sulphuric acid and heated in air oven at 105ºC till the spots appeared. CONCLUSION : The evaluation of efficacy of a single drug, Attiverpattai choornam in the management of Madhumegam gave significant results. Presence of Tannins, Flavanoids Saponins, Zinc, Chloride play a vital role in management of Madhumegam. Pharmacological anti- diabetic activity strengthen the study. Clinically the drug relieved the symptoms polyuria, polydipsia, polypnagia very well. Attiver pattai choornam regularized the 3 humors by stabilizing the azhal thathu by its thuvarpu suvai No adverse effects were observed during the period of study. In total Attiver pattai choornam play a potential therapeutic role the in management of Madhumegam. Attiver pattai choornam needs further study with regard to mechanism of action to develop as a potent anti diabetic agent. AIM AND OBJECTIVES : A Study on Gandaga Parpa Mathirai INTRODUCTION : “Gandagam” (Sulphur) is widely used in Siddha System for treating various diseases especially skin diseases. Hence an attempt was made to find out the efficacy of “Gandaga Parpa Matirai” in treating Vellainoi. Systematic pharmacological studies in evidence to the study have been made out. AIM AND OBJECTIVES AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of Gandhaga Parpa Mathirai in the management of Vellai Noi. OBJECTIVES: • To Identify the Crude drug. • To study the Antimicrobial activity of the drug. • Bio Chemical analysis of the drug. • To study the Acute oral toxicity of the drug. • To study the Pharmacological activity of the drug (Anti-Inflammatory, Analgesic). • To evaluate the efficacy of the drug clinically. CONCLUSION : The evaluation of efficacy of the compound drug Gandaga parpa mathirai in the management of Vellai Noi gave significant results Presence of Alkaloids, Phytosterol, Tannins, Amino acid, Glycosides play vital role in the management of Vellai Noi. Pharmacological anti inflammatory and analgesic activity strengthen the study. Clinically the drug relieved the symptoms yellowish discharge dysuria, Vulval irritation, Vulval itching very well. Gandaga parpa mathirai regularized the 3 humors by stabilizing the Azhal thathu by its kaipu, thuvarppu suvai. No adverse effects were observed during the period of study. In total Gandaga parpa mathirai play a potential therapeutic role in treating Vellai Noi.
