AN OVERVIEW ON NATURAL POLYMERS AS PHARMACEUTICAL EXCIPIENTSriramNagarajan19
The use of natural excipients to deliver the bioactive agents has been hampered by the synthetic materials. However advantages offered by these natural excipients are their being non-toxic, less expensive and freely available. Excipients are any component other than the active substances intentionally added to formulation of a dosage form Research in natural polymers has witnessed growing interest and attention. This is attributable to a number of factors which include their relative abundance, low cost, and biodegrable and eco-firendly profiles. Natural polymers are basically polysaccharides so they are biocompatible and without any side effects. This review discusses various natural polymers.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Muktapishti is a traditional Ayurvedic preparation made from Shoditha Mukta (Purified Pearl), is believed to help regulate thyroid function and reduce symptoms of hyperthyroidism due to its cooling and balancing properties. Clinical evidence on its efficacy remains limited, necessitating further research to validate its therapeutic benefits.
2. Introduction
Excipients can be defined as non active ingredients that are mixed with
therapeutically active compounds to form medicines. The excipients are the
substance which are used as a medium for giving a medicament.
These help in processing of the drug delivery system during its
manufacture,protect,support or enhance stability, bioavailability or patient
acceptability.

6. Colorants and coloring agents
1) Colorants are natural dyes which are obtained from plants, animals, minerals or
invertebrates.
2) The common colorants obtained from vegetable dyes derived from plant source
like roots, barks, leaves, wood and other biological sources like fungi and lichens
3) Synthetic colorants are produced in laboratories and are not found in nature
4) The colorants from natural sources are proved to be safe due to their non-
carcinogenic ,non-toxic and biodegradable nature.
5) There are several active constituents in plants which act as a colorants like
different color pigments such as anthocyanins, carotenoids, betalains, crocin,
anthraquinone
7. Classification of colorants
Based on chemical
structure
Indigoids
Pyridine dye

Sweeteners are used to improve palatability and shelf life of food products.
Impart sweet taste to the formulations
They don’t contribute to the weight gain, don’t cause cavities and don’t raise
blood sugar levels.
Sweetness reduces or masks bitterness, sourness and saltiness.
11. Ideal properties of natural Sweetners

14. Binders
Binders are the excipients ,the dry powders or liquid, which is used to bind or
hold all ingredients used in formulation of dosage form.
Binders are mixed in formulation to convey plasticity or to increase the bonding
strength between the particles in formulation.
Types of binders
1) On the basis of their source
i) Naural polymers: starch,gelatin,acacia,tragacanth and gums
ii) Synthetic polymers: PVC,HPMC,MC,EC,PEG
iii) Sugar : Sorbitol,Glucose
15. 2) on the basis of their application
i) Solution binders : gelatin ,cellulose ,starch,PEG
ii) Dry binders: Methyl cellulose
Advantages of Binders

17. Diluents
Diluents are those ecxipients which are used to enhance the bulk of any solid
formulation or to dilute any liquid formulation..
Major function of diluents / fillers is that ,they provide a structural from and
fill the size of dosage form and make them suitable for administration by
enhancing the bulk volume
It is used to improved cohesion, enhance the flow and adjust the weight of the
tablet as per die cavity.
19. Plant Biological source,
family
Diluent
Lactose Lactose comprise about
2-8% of milk by weight

ornus, oleaceae
Sugar alcohol (hexahydric alcohol)
20. Viscosity Enhancer
A thickening agent is a substance which can increase the viscosity of a liquid
without substantially changing its property.
A viscosity modifier can decrease the thickness of a liquid to improve pour
ability and ultimately make it more palatable.
Some thickening agents may also function as stabilizers when they are used
to maintain the stability of emulsion.
22. Advantages
1) Inhibit the crystal growth
2) Enhances the physical stability
Disadvantages
1) Hinders redispersibility of the sediment
2) Retards the absorption of the drug
3) Creates problem in handling of the material during manufacturing.
23. Plant Biological source, family Viscosity enhancer

acid.
24. Disintegrants
Disintegrating agents accelerate the swelling or disintegration of tablet once it
comes in contact with a fluid.
Disintegrates are added to the formulation as it breaks the dosage form into
smaller particles when it comes in contact with the liquid ,smaller fragments
have greater surface area which will increase the dissolution of the drug. E.g. –
starch, cellulose.
25. Poor solubility
Poor gel formation
Good hydration capacity
Good compressibility and flow
property
No tendency to form complexes with
the drug
Characteristics of Disintegrates
