Evaluation of Hochst ex A. Rich Mucilage as Suspending Agent in Metronidazole Benzoate Suspension.

Various species of the genus have been investigated for different pharmaceutical applications as excipients, yet a study on the potential use of mucilage (GFM) as a suspending agent is lacking. Thus, this study is aimed at evaluating the efficacy of mucilage (GFM) as a suspending agent in metronidazole benzoate suspension. The suspensions were prepared using 0.

Multiple Pathway-Mediated Gut-Modulatory Effects of (Gilg) DeWolf.

Background: Gastrointestinal disorders are often poorly managed, especially in developing countries, where there are limited resources and therapeutic options. Despite the rich diversity of medicinal plants that offer effective treatment options with fewer side effects, studies that provide scientific verification are lacking. (Gilg) DeWolf is among the plants claimed to have wide traditional medicine, use, including as a remedy against gastrointestinal problems.

Physicochemical Characterization of Hochst. ex A. Rich Mucilage for Potential Use as a Pharmaceutical Excipient.

Gum and mucilages from natural sources are in recent times increasingly investigated for pharmaceutical applications. Different studies have shown that the gum and mucilage fraction of various species of the genus were found to be effective viscosity enhancers, stabilizers, disintegrants, suspending agents, gelling agents, bioadhesives, film coating agents, and binders. However, no study has been conducted on the potential use of mucilage (GFM) as a pharmaceutical excipient.

Antimalarial Evaluation of Crude Extract, Solvent Fractions, and TLC-Isolated Compounds from Linn subsp. (Oleaceae).

Malaria is a major global public health problem caused by parasites. Drug resistance is becoming a great challenge. New drugs with novel mechanism of action are urgently required.

Antidiabetic Activity of Extracts of Fresen. Stem Bark in Mice.

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder that imposes a huge health and economic burden on societies. Because the currently available medications have many drawbacks, it is important to search for alternative therapies. Medicinal plants used in traditional medicines are ideal candidates.

Diabetic ketoacidosis in children and adolescents with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes in Tigray, Ethiopia: retrospective observational study.

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is the most severe acute complication of type 1 diabetes mellitus which results in increased risk of morbidity and mortality especially in developing countries. To assess prevalence and associated factors of diabetic ketoacidosis in children and adolescents with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes in hospitals of the Tigray region, Ethiopia. A facility based retrospective observational study design was conducted in newly diagnosed type 1 diabetic children and adolescents up to the age of 18 years who were registered in 13 general and two referral hospitals from January 1, 2013 to December 30, 2017.

Evaluation of Senna singueana leaf extract as an alternative or adjuvant therapy for malaria.

The emergence of malarial resistance to most antimalarial drugs is the main factor driving the continued effort to identify/discover new agents for combating the disease. Moreover, the unacceptably high mortality rate in severe malaria has led to the consideration of adjuvant therapies. Senna singueana leaves are traditionally used against malaria and fever.
