| Description | Guggulu is an oleoresin (Niryasa) obtained from the plant Commiphora wightii. Preparations having the exudates as main effective ingredient are known as Guggulu. There are five different varieties of Guggulu described in the Ayurvedic texts. However two of the varieties; namely; Mahisaksa and Kanaka Guggulu are usually preferred for medicinal preparations. Mahisaksa Guggulu is dark greenish brown and Kanaka Guggulu is yellowish brown in color. Before using; Guggulu is cleaned in the following manner: 1. Sand; stone; plant debris; glass etc. are first removed. 2. It is then broken into small pieces. 3. It is thereafter bundled in a piece of cloth and boiled in Dola Yantra containing any one of the following fluids. a. Gomutra; b. Triphala kasaya; c. Nirgundapatra Svarasa with Haridra Curna; d. Vasapatra Kasaya; e. Vasapatra Svarasa and f. Dugdha. The boiling of Guggulu in Dola Yantra is carried on until all the Guggulu passes into the fluid through the cloth. By pressing with fingers; much of the fluid that can pass through is taken out. The residue in the bundle is discarded. The fluid is filtered and again boiled till it forms a mass. This mass is dried and then pounded with a pestle in a stone mortar; adding ghee in small quantities till it becomes waxy. Guggulu cleaned as above; is soft; waxy and brown in color. Characteristics of preparations of Guggulu vary depending on the other ingredients added to the preparations. Guggulu is kept in glass or porcelain jars free from moisture and stored in a cool place. The potency is maintained for two years when prepared with ingredients of plant origin and indefinitely when prepared with metals and minerals. Note: Guggulu formulations can also be prepared in a tablet dosage form; without the use of excipients; but they should comply the general tests for tablets. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Method | Take all ingredients of pharmacopoeial quality. Treat Ghrita to prepare murcchita Ghrita (Appendix 6.2.9.2). Wash; clean; dry the ingredients numbered 1 to 11 of the formulation composition; powder separately and pass through 355 I.S. sieve (sieve number 44) (kvatha dravya). Add water for decoction to the kvatha dravya and soak for four hours; heat and reduce the volume to one-eighth. Filter through muslin cloth to obtain kvatha. Strain the Godugdha through muslin cloth. Wash; clean; dry the ingredients numbered 17; 18 and 20 to 24 of the Formulation Composition; powder separately and pass through 180 I.S. sieve (sieve number 85) to obtain fine powder. Roast coarsely powdered Saindhava Lavana in a stainless steel pan on low flame till free from moisture; powder and pass through 180 I.S. sieve (sieve number 85) (Kalka dravya). Transfer the powdered ingredients to wet grinder and grind with sufficient quantity of water to prepare homogeneous blend. Take murcchita Ghrita in a stainless steel vessel and heat it mildly. Add increments of kalka; stir thoroughly while adding Kvatha; Guda; Eranda taila and Godugdha. Heat for 3 h with constant stirring maintaining the temperature between 500 and 900 during the first hour of heating. Stop heating and allow to stand overnight. Continue the process of heating next day. Constantly check the Kalka by rolling between the fingers. Stop the heating when the kalka easily rolls into a varti without sticking (Madhyama paka laksana) to the fingers and at the subsidence of froth (phenasanti) over the ghrita. Expose the varti and ghrita to flame and confirm the absence of crackling sound indicating absence of moisture. Filter while hot (about 800) through a muslin cloth and allow to cool. Store it in glass containers and pack them air-tight to protect from light and moisture. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
