Abstract

This research article presents a comprehensive study on the formulation and evaluation of Anti-inflammatory Gutika. Gutika is a traditional ayurvedic pill, using the plants of Crossandra infundibuliformis and Cnidoscolus aconitifolius.[1] The study outlines the procurement and preparation of plant materials, the process of creating the Gutika, and its subsequent organoleptic, phytochemical, and pharmacological evaluation. The findings demonstrate the Gutika’s potential in treating inflammation, supported by in vitro tests for Anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant activities. The article emphasizes the significance of integrating modern analytical techniques with classical Ayurvedic formulations, ensuring their reliability and efficacy.

Keywords: Crossandra infundibuliformis, Cnidoscolus aconitifolius, Gutika, Anti-inflammatory, Evaluation, Anti-oxidant.
