Summary of article contents:

Krishnadi Choorna (powder) is a very common formulation prescribed for respiratory disorders. Palatability, mode of administration, refusal for intake due to Katu (pungent) and Kashaya (astringent) rasa, mixing with honey and carrying honey along with drugs are the drawbacks of  Krishnadi  Choorna. If the same could be modified into a form which would render same results of that of Choorna, it would be a better dosage form. Another dosage form namely Lehya is also an important form because the preparation has got good palatability, easy mode of administration and better absorption capacity. In this study, Krishnadi  Choorna was prepared as per mentioned in Bhaishajya Ratnawali. Then it was converted into Lehya (Semisolid preparations) form. The pharmaceutico-analytical data were observed and recorded. Analysis of both prepared formulations was carried out as per mentioned in Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia of India (API). The prepared Lehya has shown upper hand over Choorna in palatability, shelf life, action and absorption. The overall results are encouraging in the present study.
