Abstract

BACKGROUND: The trial drug “Kalladaippu Chooranam (KC)” is a herbo-mineral formulation is used for treating Urolithiasis. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this present study is to validate the qualitative bio-chemical analysis of a classical Siddha Herbo-Mineral Formulation “Kalladaippu Chooranam (KC)” as Mentioned in Agathiyar Ayulvetham 1200. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Siddha system of medicine is one of the oldest system of medicine which have been practiced by the Dravidian people particularly in Southern part of India.

The trial drug was prepared by, as per the Standard Operative Procedure (SOP) as mentioned in classical literature. Then trial drug (KC) was subjected to qualitative biochemical analysis. This current study explore that the qualitative analysis of a trial drug through bio-chemical analysis. RESULTS: The present investigation of qualitative bio-chemical analysis shows that the presence of various chemical compounds in the trial drug “(KC) Acid radical such as Chloride, Phosphate, Sulphide and Basic radical such as Iron. CONCLUSION: Thus the authors conclude from the results, the presence of these various chemical compounds in the trial drug (KC) will be responsible for its therapeutic effect. This preliminary bio- chemical analysis will pav a flatform to do further pharmacological studies.
