Formulation and Evaluation of Polyherbal Medicated Lollipop for Paediatrics

The goal of current work is to formulation and evaluation of medicinal lollipop for paediatrics. For paediatric patients, the traditional dosage forms-such as tablet, capsules, syrup, etc.-are inconvenient. Lollipops are characterised as medicinal dosage forms with flavours that are meant to be sucked and kept in the mouth or throat. These forms often contain one or more medications in a sweetend foundation. Due weather change and due to bronchial infection cough occurs in paediatric commonly and conventional dosage form is not suitable for paediatric. Most in children is caused by undifferentiated acute respiratory tract infections-a cough that does not conform to any clear diagnostic syndrome such as cough, whooping cough, pneumonia, or bronchiolitis. This medicated lollipop formulated with the help of Sitaphal powder, bamboo, pepper, cardamom, and cinnamon and prepared by heating and congealing method. This polyherbal lollipop prepared specially for diabetic children with the help of honey not by using sugar syrup base, because most of the lollipop prepared by using sugar syrup and it is inconvenient for diabetic children. Different evaluation parameter was performed like hardness, friability, weight variation and moisture content. Medicated lollipop passes all evaluation parameter.
