Abstract

Pharmaceutical preparations are meant for easy application of drugs and also to ensure ready and harmless usage. Preparations in Ayurveda are primary and secondary. Primary preparations are aqueous preparations whereas secondary preparations are various types of fermented medications, oil and fat medicated preparations. Multi medicated drugs (Avarthi) are in other angle. Semi solid sweetened preparations like Avaleha provides with natural preservation and palatability for the medicinal ingredients. Preparations from metals and minerals like Bhasma and Sindhura, highly potentiated with reduced bulk are also in another angle with a wide spectrum of usage.
