A review on plants act on both antidiabetic and antihyperlipidemic plantsSriramNagarajan19
Since ancient times, plants have been an exemplary source of medicine. Ayurveda and other Indian literature mentioned the use of plants in treatment of various human ailments. Medical plants play an important role in the management of diabetes mellitus especially in developing countries where resources are meager. Oral hypoglycemic agents like sulphonylureas and biguanides are still the major players in the management of the disease but there is growing interest in herbal remedies due to the side effects associated with the oral hypoglycemic agents. Herbal medicines have been the highly esteemed source of medicine throughout human history. Hyperlipidemia has been ranked as one of the greatest risk factors contributing to prevalence and severity of coronary heart diseases. Hyperlipidemia is a condition when abnormally high levels of lipids i.e. the fatty substances are found in the blood. Hypolipidemic drugs are extensively used as prophylactic agents to prevent such atherosclerosis induced disorders. But these hypolipidemic drugs are not free from adverse effects. Many plant derivatives and domestic remedies have been screened for their hypolipidemic action. More than 70 medicinal plants have been documented to have significant hypolipidemic action. During the last decade, an increase in the use of medicinal plants has been observed in metropolitan areas of developed countries. Medicinal plants play a major role in diabetes and hypolipidemic activity. The advantages of herbal medicines reported are effectiveness, safety, affordability and acceptability, this review focus on diabeties and hyperlipidemia and the role of plants used for the treatment of diabeties and hyperlipidemia.
FORMULATION AND CHARACTERISATION OF TRANSDERMAL PATCHES OF PERINDOPRILSriramNagarajan19
Transdermal drug delivery system (TDDS) has been an increased interest in the drug administration via the skin for both local therapeutic effects on diseased skin (topical delivery) as well as for systemic delivery of drugs. The skin as a site of drug delivery, has a number of significant advantages over many other routes of drug administration, including the ability to avoid problems of gastric irritation, pH and emptying rate effects, avoid hepatic first-pass metabolism thereby increasing the bioavailability of drug, reduce the risk of systemic side effects by minimizing plasma concentrations compared to oral therapy, provide a sustained release of drug at the site of application; rapid termination of therapy by removal of the device or formulation, the reduction of fluctuations in plasma levels of drugs, and avoid pain associated with injections. The transdermal delivery can also eliminate pulsed entry into the systemic circulation, which might often cause undesirable side effects. Main objective of formulating the transdermal system was to prolong the drug release time, reduce the frequency of administration and to improve patient compliance. In the present study, five formulations were prepared using single polymer in different ratios, along with plasticizers and penetration enhancer. Finally it was concluded that Some formulations show formation of brittle patch due to insufficient amount of polymer and in some patches texture of patch is not elegant due to plasticizer concentration for patch preparation. So by increasing concentration of polymer and plasticizer, finally formulation-5 was considered as optimized formula for preparing transdermal patch of Perindopril, where it shown best drug release profile.

Live Longer, Stay healthy, Feel better with AstashinecapsulesSriramNagarajan19
ASTASHINE capsule contains natural astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis Astaxanthin has exceptional antioxidant activity to combat singlet oxygen when compared to other antioxidants. In particular, Astaxanthin can be used to defend against singlet oxygen damage, which are especially susceptible to aging effects.
In this study, Astaxanthin extracted from Haematococcus microalgae powerfully quenched singlet oxygen. Results show that the quenching effect of Astaxanthin is 800 times greater than coenzyme Q10. Astaxanthin was also about 75 times greater than alpha lipoic acid, about 550 times greater than green tea catechins and about 6000 times greater than Vitamin C.the present Article reviews the role of ASTASHINE capsules as World’s most powerful Antioxidant and Anti-aging Nutrient.
Astashine capsules: an excellent choice for eye fatique relieveSriramNagarajan19
Scientists long ago discovered that a class of naturally-occurring pigments called carotenoids held powerful antioxidant properties that are crucial for eye health. This carotenoid is called astaxanthin. Astaxanthin is produced by the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis when its water supply dries up, forcing it to protect itself from ultraviolet radiation. Astaxanthin is leaps and bounds more powerful than beta-carotene, alpha-tocopherol, lycopene, and lutein--other members of its chemical family. Astaxanthin exhibits very strong free radical scavenging activity, and protects eyes from oxidative damage. Astaxanthin is by far the most powerful carotenoid antioxidant when it comes to free radical scavenging: it is 65 times more powerful than vitamin C, 54 times more powerful than beta-carotene, and 14 times more powerful than vitamin E. Astaxanthin is far more effective than other carotenoids at "singlet oxygen quenching," which is a particular type of oxidation. The damaging effects of sunlight and various organic materials are caused by this less-stable form of oxygen. Astaxanthin is 550 times more powerful than vitamin E and 11 times more powerful than beta-carotene at neutralizing this singlet oxygen. Astaxanthin crosses the blood-brain barrier and the blood-retinal barrier which has huge implications for the health of eyes.

Thus Derris indica have abti bacterial activity along with other therapeutic activities.
Gastric emptying is a complex process, one that is highly variable and makes in vivo performance of drug delivery systems uncertain. A controlled drug delivery system with prolonged residence time in the stomach can be great practical importance for drugs with an absorption window in the upper small intestine. The main limitations are attributed to the inter- and intra-subject variability of gastrointestinal (GI) transit time and to the non-uniformity of drug absorption throughout the alimentary canal. Floating drug delivery systems are useful in such applications. Floating microspheres have been gaining attention due to the uniform distribution of these multiple-unit dosage forms in the stomach, which results in more reproducible drug absorption and reduced risk of local irritation. The present research briefly addresses the physiology of the gastric emptying process with respect to floating drug delivery systems. Floating microsphere were prepared by solvent evapouration method, using hydroxylpropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), ethyl cellulose (EC), Eudragit S 100 polymer in varying ratios. The shape and surface morphology of the microspheres were characterised by differential scanning calorimetry and scanning electron microscopy.

No significant difference was observed in the weight of individual tablets from the average weight. The weight variation tests were performed according to the procedure given in the pharmacopoeia. In a weight variation test, pharmacopoeial limit of tablet for percentage deviation is 5%. The average percentage deviation of all tablet formulation was found to be within the pharmacopoeial limit and hence all formulation passed the test for uniformity of weight.
Formulation and evaluation of sitagliptan floating tabletsSriramNagarajan19
Gastro retentive dosage form using Guar gum was prepared to develop floating tablets of Sitagliptin that could retain in the stomach for longer periods of time delivering the drug to the site of action, i.e., stomach. The pre-compression parameters of all formulations showed good flow properties and these can be used for tablet manufacture. The post-compression parameters of all formulations were determined and the values were found to be satisfactory. From the drug content and in-vitro dissolution studies of the formulations, it was concluded that the formulation F9 i.e. the formulation containing guargum, Sodium bicarbonate, citric acid, micro crystalline cellulose and Magnesium stearate is the best formulation. As a result of this study it may be concluded that the floating tablets using a guar gum in optimized concentration can be used to increase the GRT of the dissolution fluid in the stomach to deliver the drug in a sustained manner. The concept of formulating floating tablets of Sitagliptin offers a suitable and practical approach in serving desired objectives of gastro retentive floating tablets.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.

ABSTRACT
A simple and selective LC method is described for the determination of Quinapril and Tolcapone tablet dosage forms.
Chromatographic separation was achieved on a c18 column using mobile phase consisting of a Mixed Phosphate
buffer (KH2PO4 +K2HPO4): Acetonitrile 40:60, with detection of 239 nm. Linearity was observed in the range 50 -
150 µg /ml for Quinapril (r2
=0.995) and 62.5- 187.5µg /ml for Tolcapone (r2
=0.999) for the amount of drugs
estimated by the proposed methods was in good agreement with the label claim.
The proposed methods were validated. The accuracy of the methods was assessed by recovery studies at three
different levels. Recovery experiments indicated the absence of interference from commonly encountered
pharmaceutical additives. The method was found to be precise as indicated by the repeatability analysis, showing
%RSD less than 2. All statistical data proves validity of the methods and can be used for routine analysis of
pharmaceutical dosage form.

INTRODUCTION
A drug includes all medicines intended for
internal or external use for or in the diagnosis,
treatment, mitigation or prevention of disease or
disorder in human beings or animals, and
manufactured exclusively in accordance with the
formulae mentioned in authoritative books [1].
Pharmaceutical analysis is a branch of
chemistry involving a process of identification,
determination, quantification, purification and
separation of components in a mixture or
determination of chemical structure of compounds.
There are two main types of analysis – Qualitative
and Quantitative analysis [2-7].
AIM AND PLAN OF WORK
Aim
To develop new RP HPLC method for the
simultaneous estimation of Quinapril and

Hydrochlorothiazide in pharmaceutical dosage
form [8-15].
Plan of work
Solubility determination of Quinapril and
Hydrochlorothiazide various solvents and buffers.
Determine the absorption maxima of the drug in
UV–Visible region in different solvents/buffers
and selecting the solvents for HPLC method
development.
Optimize the mobile phase and flow rates for
proper resolution and retention times.
Validate the developed method as per ICH
guidelines [15-20].
METHODOLOGY
Mobile phase
A mixture of 40 volumes of mixed phosphate
buffer (KH2PO4 +K2HPO4) and 60 volumes of
acetonitrile were prepared. The mobile phase was
sonicated for 10min to remove gases and filtered
through 0.45µ membrane filter for degassing of
mobile phase.
Determination of Working Wavelength
(λmax)
In estimation of drug wavelength maxima is
used.. So this wavelength is used in estimation to
estimate drug accurately.
Preparation of standard stock solution of
QUINAPRIL
50 mg of Quinapril was weighed and transferred
in to 500ml volumetric flask and dissolved in
methanol and then make up to the mark with
methanol and prepare 10 µg /ml of solution by
diluting 1ml to 10ml with methanol.
Preparation of standard stock solution of
TOLCAPONE
50mg of TOLCAPONE was weighed in to
500ml volumetric flask and dissolved in Methanol
and then dilute up to the mark with methanol and
prepare 10 µg /ml of solution by diluting 1ml to
10ml with methanol.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS
Solubility studies
These studies are carried out at 25 0
C
Quinapril
Freely soluble in methanol,water and DMSO
Tolcapone
Slightly or very slightly soluble in water;
sparingly soluble in alcohol; soluble in acetone;
freely soluble in dimethylformamide; n-
butylamine; and solutions of alkali hydroxides;
insoluble in ether, chloroform, and dilute mineral
acids.
Wavelength determination
In simultaneous estimation of two drugs
isobestic wavelength is used. Isobestic point is the
wavelength where the molar absorptivity is the
same for two substances that are interconvertible.
So this wavelength is used in simultaneous
estimation to estimate both drugs accurately.
Preparation of standard stock solution of
QUINAPRIL
50 mg of Quinapril was weighed and transferred
in to 500ml volumetric flask and dissolved in
methanol and then make up to the mark with
methanol and prepare 10 µg /ml of solution by
diluting 1ml to 10ml with methanol.
Preparation of standard stock solution of
TOLCAPONE
50mg of TOLCAPONE was weighed in to
500ml volumetric flask and dissolved in Methanol
and then dilute up to the mark with methanol and
prepare 10 µg /ml of solution by diluting 1ml to
10ml with methanol.
Results
The wavelength of maximum absorption (λmax)
of the drug, 10 μg/ml solution of the drugs in
methanol were scanned using UV-Visible
spectrophotometer within the wavelength region of
200–400 nm against methanol as blank. The
resulting spectra are shown in the fig. no. 8.1 and
the absorption curve shows characteristic
absorption maxima at 239 nm for the combination.
