PHARMACEUTICAL STANDARDIZATION AND INFORMATION ON BAL RASAYANA SYRUP – A NEXT GENERATION SYRUP

Many medicinal formulations and combinations have been mentioned in Ayurvedic literature to compete with the different diseases of children. These formulations have some drawbacks, including a big dose, an unpleasant flavour, a short shelf life, and portability issues, especially when dealing with children. Formulations must be modified without losing their effectiveness to improve practicality, palatability, minimum dose, ease of administration, enhanced bioavailability, and shelf life. The goal of the current study was to pharmaceutically standardize and to learn various pharmacological actions of Bal Rasayana Syrup, a next generation Syrup used as an immunomodulator and effective in various diseases of children such as Respiratory problems, GIT problems, worm infestation, and in various infections. It comprises authentic Ayurveda Herbs indicated in classical texts of Ayurveda. This medication is prescribed in powder form in the original text, but when administered to children, it becomes unpalatable, so it is modified into syrup form and given the name Bal Rasayana Syrup. At the Abhinav Healthcare Products Pvt. Ltd, Nehroli, Wada, Maharashtra, Bal Rasayana Syrup underwent pharmaceutical preparation and analytical study. The formulation was initially tested for organoleptic parameters such as odour, taste, and colour. Followed by Physico-chemical analysis and microbial standards testing. The syrup is having brown colour, a distinctive odour, and a sweet taste with Strawberry flavour. Analytical standards for Bal Rasayana Syrup such as specific gravity, and pH, were 1.241 g/mL, and 6.15 respectively. After the screening for Safety and toxicity, Syrup was found to comply with respect to standards.
