ABSTRACT:
This
work
approached
with
to
formulate
directly
compressible
fast
disintegrating
tablets
of
Cinnarizine
with
sufficient
mechanical
integrity,
content
uniformity,
and
acceptable
palatability
to
assist
patients
of
any
age
group
for
easy
administration.
Effect
of
concentration
of
superdisintegrant,
Kyron
T
314
and
directly
compressible
material,
tablettose®
70
on
disintegration
time
was
studied.
Tablets
were
evaluated
for
weight
variation,
thickness,
hardness,
friability,
drug
content,
in
vitro
disintegrating
time,
wetting
time
and
in
vitro
drug
release.
A
32
full
factorial
design
was
applied
to
investigate
the
combine
effect
of
2
formulation
variable:
directly
compressible
material,
tablettose®
70
and
Superdisintegrant,
Kyron
T
314.
Here
the
concentration
of
directly
compressible
material
and
concentration
of
superdisintegrant
were
taken
as
independent
variable,
X1
and
X2
respectively.
The
effect
of
Disintegration
time,
wetting
time,
Q15
and
friability
were
investigated
as
dependent
parameters.
The
results
of
analysis
revealed
that
for
obtaining
a
rapidly
disintegrating
dosage
form,
tablets
should
be
prepared
using
an
optimum
concentration
of
superdisintegrant
and
a
higher
percentage
of
directly
compressible
material.
The
systematic
formulation
approach
helped
in
understanding
the
effect
of
formulation
processing variables.

ABSTRACT:
The
survey
was
designed
to
investigate
about
the
awareness
of
higher
secondary
school
students
belongs
to
tribal
area
about
awareness,
the
inheritance,
symptoms
&
complications
and
management
and
government
facility
for
the
sickle
cell
anemia.
This
study
was
also
determine
whether
or
not
students
likely
to
be
genetically
affected
by
sickle
cell
anemia
are
more
or
less
aware.197
students
of
the
higher
secondary
school
were
assessed
on
their
general
awareness
about
sickle
cell
anemia
and
pamphlets
on
awareness
were
distributed
to
make
them
aware
and
spread
the
awareness
to
others
too.
Percentage
analysis
was
used
to
evaluate
the
results.
40%
students
were
aware
about
the
Sickle
cell
anemia
and
know
it
is
Autosomal
disease
and
32.5%
know
how
it
is
occurs
and
its
symptoms
and
complications.
Where
4%
were
aware
about
its
treatment
as
they
were
the
sufferer
of
sickle
cell
anemia
and
only
0.5%
knows
the
government
facility
for
Sickle
cell
anemia.
In
this
study
50%
were
boys
from
which
11%
aware
and
from
50%o
girls
26%
aware.
100%
were
interested
to
know
about
the
disease
and
were
ready
to
spread
awareness
on
the
disease
in
others.
The
scarcity
of
sickle
cell
anemia
research
exemplifies
how
our
society
fails
to
view
sickle
cell
anemia
as
a
serious
illness.
Information
and
awareness-related
activities
are
important
component
of
effective
public
health
strategies
for
reducing
the
morbidity
and
mortality
among
people
with
sickle
cell
anemia.
Without
awareness and a public protest for a revolution, sickle cell anemia will continue to be a silent killer to young people around the world.

375
nm
(?1??2)
and
for
LNC
wavelength
ranges
selected
were
285
?
295
nm
(?3??4)
and
area
were
integrated
between
these
selected
wavelength
ranges
for
both

The
method
was
linear
in
the
range
of
4-20
?g/ml
(r2
=
0.9998)
for
THC
and
4-20
?g/ml
(r2
=
0.9994)
for
LNC.
The
results
of
the
precision

indicate
that
the
proposed
method
showed
good
repeatability
for
THC
and
LNC
with
%
CV
of
0.16
%
and
0.28
%
respectively.
The
%
CV
for
