MethodTake all the ingredients of the pharmacopoeial quality. Wash; dry and powder the ingredients number 7 to 19 of the formulation composition separately and pass through sieve number 85; weigh them separately in the required quantities and mix. Crush weighed quantity of Guggulu-Shuddha. Wash; dry and powder the ingredients number 1 to 3 of the formulation composition separately and pass through sieve number 40. Soak the coarse powder mixture in 8 times of potable water for 12 h. Gently heat the mixture to boil and continue the boiling to reduce the volume of the mixture to half of its original volume. Stop the boiling and filter while still warm through a muslin cloth. Boil the filtrate (Kvatha) in an iron vessel. Add Shuddha-Guggulu to Kvatha and concentrate to Gudapaka (semi-solid) condition. Add fine powders of mixed ingredients and Maksika Bhasma with continuous stirring. Pound the mixture to a semi-solid uniformly mixed mass of suitable plasticity. Use Ghrita for smooth pounding. Expel the pounded mass through Vata machine fitted with a suitable die and cut the Vatas to a desired weight. Roll the Vatas on flat surface to round them by circular motion of palm covered with a glove and smeared with Ghrita or use suitable mechanical device. Dry the rounded Vatas in a tray-dryer at a temperature not exceeding 600 for 10 to 12 h. Pack it in tightly closed containers to protect from light and moisture.
