THE AYURVEDIC PHARMACOPOEIA OF INDIA: Part I (In 4 Volumes)

Description

From the Jacket:

The Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia of India is a legal document of standards for the quality of Ayurvedic drugs and substances included therein. This 4th Volume consists of 68 monographs on single drugs of plant origin. Pharmacognostical chemical and Ayurvedic are described in detail in each monograph.

Each monograph describes macroscopic, microscopic character along with their chemical standards of identity, permissible limit of foreign matter, purity and strength and have been developed on the protocol developed and approved by the Ayurvedic pharmacopoeia Committee. It also prescribes about total ash value, acid insoluble extractive water-soluble extractive and chromatographic pattern of TLC. All this work was carried out in Pharmacopoeia Lab. of Indian Medicine. The data has been finalized after confirmation of various samples obtained from different agro-climatic zones by the cross-section of experienced scientists in Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia Committee and after careful scientific scrutiny. The standards have been consciously kept modest so that its implementation by the manufacturing companies becomes easily acceptable in order to maintain quality control and batch uniformity. However efforts of the manufactures should be to maintain higher standards of quality.

Ayurvedic pharmacological properties like Rasa, Guna, Virya etc. are also mentioned in each monograph along with their therapeutic uses, some of the important classical formulations and therapeutic dose.

Appendix of this volume contains the details of the protocols used in determination of various scientific standards. References of ancient Ayurvedic literature in its original form are added, in order to authenticate the Ayurvedic statements made in each monograph.

In the end English equivalents of Ayurvedic term have been given to make the volume user friendly for all people who work in the are of Ayurveda drugs and who are not conversant with Sanskrit terminology.

In general this book is more user friendly for scientists, manufacturers, students involved in drug quality testing of Ayurvedic medicines, teachers of Drvyaguna research scholars, physicians of Ayurveda and many others who have interest in the quality standards of Ayurvedic medicines.

This book is included in the 1st schedule of Drugs and Cosmetic Act, 1940. Manufactures are required to follow pharmacopoeial standards as these are mandatory requirement under the Act.

This Lab. is guided by the Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia Committee having experts of Ayurveda, pharmacognosy, Phytochemistry, inorganic Chemistry and Pharmacy. On the advice of APC and scientific data generated by PILM the work on developing pharmacopoeia of India containing monographs of Ayurvedic drugs on scientific parameters.

Testimonials

Priya, USA

Thiru, UK

Thank You very much for this wonderful opportunity for helping people to acquire the spiritual treasures of Hinduism at such an affordable price.

Ramakrishna, Australia

I really LOVE you! Wonderful selections, prices and service. Thank you!

Tina, USA

This is to inform you that the shipment of my order has arrived in perfect condition. The actual shipment took only less than two weeks, which is quite good seen the circumstances. I waited with my response until now since the Buddha statue was a present that I handed over just recently. The Medicine Buddha was meant for a lady who is active in the healing business and the statue was just the right thing for her. I downloaded the respective mantras and chants so that she can work with the benefits of the spiritual meanings of the statue and the mantras. She is really delighted and immediately fell in love with the beautiful statue. I am most grateful to you for having provided this wonderful work of art. We both have a strong relationship with Buddhism and know to appreciate the valuable spiritual power of this way of thinking. So thank you very much again and I am sure that I will come back again.
