Because of this enormous engage of herbal products in our daily life, the current trend espouse towards the herbal products. Tooth paste is one of the most widely used semi-solid dosage forms available in the paste (or) gel forms which have a great effect in maintaining the health of the teeth and aesthetic effect by ascertaining the abrasive action to the teeth. Because of that herbal tooth pastes have increased demand and awareness. The harsodent is free from artificial ingredients like parabens, SLS, saccharin, NaF (Fluoride source) and chlorine sources. In the present work Clove oil, Neem oil and Syzygium cumini (Neredu) powder are the active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) which helps in maintaining the activities of the herbal tooth paste. In the present investigation three formulations were prepared F1, F2, F3 by mixing the polymers like micro crystalline cellulose MCC, methyl cellulose MC and sodium carboxy methyl cellulose SCMC and the remaining ingredients constantly in every formulation. More over the formulated tooth paste is said to be available to the consumers in cheap and cost effective manner. Key words: Herbal tooth paste, Semi-solid dosage form, Toothache (Dentalgia), Abrasive action, Active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). INTRODUCTION: loose teeth, strengthening the gums and whitening of teeth as well as promote the History of tooth paste relief from toothache. More over the first In ancient days Indians, Egyptians and organic tooth paste was invented by a Romans are using the powdered ashes, egg dentist named as Dr. Washington Wentworth shells and myrrh to cleaning their teeth.

Tooth paste is a semi-solid dosage form In early 17th and 18th century peoples made available in the paste (or) gel forms which the tooth paste for their convenience to daily have a fortifying effect in the maintaining the use. Although the first tooth powder was health of the teeth and aesthetic effect by formulated by Chinese and Romans, mainly ascertaining the abrasive action to the teeth. in their formulation containing the charcoal And also it is used to achieve the suppressive (or) bark powder, ginseng, mint and salt are actions like toothache (Dentalgia), Halitosis the common ingredients.

  • Medicinal Cannabis Dosage Forms in California an Overview of Cannabis Dosage Forms
    Mica Gross President Sante Botanica / COO MDBioLogics Medicinal Cannabis Dosage Forms in California An Overview of Cannabis Dosage Forms Forms of dosage are the specific vehicles by which cannabis, or cannabinoids, are delivered into the body. Cannabis (drug-containing plant) —> The “form” in which THC and other cannabinoids Extracted Oil (drug substance) —> are administered determines how they moves and Delivery / Intake (drug product) works medicinally inside the body: ie the pharmacokinetics of cannabis. Both the plant material and the oils yielded through the extraction process influence the performance of the different forms of intake, which each have a particular set of benefits. An Overview of Cannabis Dosage Forms The medicinal effect experienced by the end- user is a function of the quality of the raw material – the cannabinoid and terpene profile of the cannabis – and of the derived oil yielded during extraction. The goal is to preserve the fidelity of the volatile medicinal compounds – such as the cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids – throughout the entire chain of custody so that the therapeutic effect is intact and the dose is delivered in the most efficacious means possible. An Overview of Cannabis Dosage Forms Each form of intake is formulated to take advantage of the pharmacokinetic pathways as effectively as possible in delivering a therapeutic dose of cannabinoids (e.g. THC or CBD). An Overview of Cannabis Dosage Forms Important factors when considering each form of intake: • Bioavailability – the fraction of the administered

It does not establish any rights for any person and is not binding on FDA or the public. You can use an alternative approach if it satisfies the requirements of the applicable statutes and regulations. To discuss an alternative approach, contact the Office of Generic Drugs. Active Ingredient: Nicotine Dosage Form; Route: Film, extended release; transdermal Recommended Studies: Three studies 1. Type of study: Bioequivalence (BE) study with pharmacokinetic (PK) endpoints Design: Single-dose, two-treatment, two-period crossover in vivo Strength: 21 mg/24 hr Subjects: Males and non-pregnant, non-lactating females, smokers Additional comments: In this document, this dosage form is referred to as a transdermal delivery system (TDS) and includes products that may be described elsewhere or known as patches or extended release films. Unless otherwise justified, the nicotine TDS should be applied to the same anatomical site on all subjects, selected from among those recommended for dosing in the approved labeling for the reference listed drug (RLD) product, and worn for 24 hours. Applicants should randomize subjects to receive either the test or RLD product in a given study period. When possible, the TDS administered in the second study period should be applied to the same anatomical site as in the first study period, but on the contralateral side of the body. Contact of the TDS with the skin is essential for the in vivo performance of the TDS, and the PK may be altered when a TDS loses its adherence to the skin.

This standard provides for all drug dosage forms. The granularity of data often requires that more specific dosage form terms be stored in automated databases than are represented in publications. These dosage form terms are available not only for use in databases that track approved drug products, but also for drug products such as: those that have not been approved, investigational drug products, homeopathic drug products, biologic products, veterinary drug products, and bulk drug products. A ‘use restrictions’ column is being added to help identify where a particular dosage form set or subset should be used (a=CDER Databases, b=NDC Directory, c=Orange Book). The definitions for Lotion, Cream, Ointment, and Paste were revised on June 21, 2006 to include information that would assist the user in differentiating between these dosage forms. These changes were the result of discussions during an FDA Advisory Committee with an open public forum, scientific studies that were published in refereed pharmaceutical journals, and internal discussions by Agency personnel, including the usual adherence to the criteria that are specified in MaPP 7600.4.
