The current study's purpose was to develop and test a multi-herbal anti-diabetic quick-dissolving tablet compared to a commercially available metformin tablet. The multi-herbal anti-diabetic tablet contains natural medicines with anti-diabetic properties, such as Curcuma longa, Cinnamomum zeylanicum, Zingiber officinale, and Trigonella foenumgraecum. This mixture contains the botanical extracts Curcuma longa, Cinnamomum zeylanicum, Zingiber officinale, and Trigonella foenumgraecum. MCC is employed as a diluent and sodium saccharin as a sweetening agent in the tablet formulation to attain this purpose. In the formulation of tablets, superdisintegrants such as crospovidone, sodium starch glycolate (SSG), and a blend of crospovidone and sodium starch glycolate were used to improve dissolve rate and disintegration. Weight variation, drug content uniformity, hardness, friability, wetting time, in-vitro dispersion time and in-vitro drug release investigations were performed on the tablets. Every parameter's evaluation results for the poly-herbal anti-diabetic pill were within acceptable boundaries. The thickness, hardness, weight fluctuation, friability and in-vitro drug release investigations of the polyherbal anti-diabetic tablet were all found to be within acceptable ranges.
INTRODUCTION:Fast-dissolving medication delivery methods are widely utilized nowadays to promote bioavailability and patient compliance. Fast-dissolving tablets (FDTs) have earned great attention as a preferable alternative to conventional tablets and capsules during the last three decades due to enhanced patient compliance, solubility, and stability characteristics 1, 2 .
