Poor water solubility and slow dissolution rate are issues drug content and polydispersity index. The obtained for the majority of upcoming and existing biologically results showed that particle size (nm) and rate of active compounds. Simvastatin is poorly water-soluble dissolution has been improved when nanosuspension drug and its bioavailability is very low from its crystalline prepared with the higher concentration of PVPK-30 and form. The purpose of the present investigation was to Poloxamer-188 and lower concentration of SLS. The increase the solubility and dissolution rate of simvastatin by particle size and zeta potential of optimized formulation the preparation of nanosuspension by Emulsification was found to be 258.3 nm and 23.43. The rate of Solvent Diffusion Method at laboratory scale. Prepared dissolution of the optimized nanosuspension was nanosuspension was evaluated for its particle size and enhanced (90.02% in 60min), relative to plain simvastatin in vitro dissolution study and characterized by zeta (21% in 60 min), mainly due to the formation of nanosized potential, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and particles. These results indicate the suitability of 23 factorial X-Ray diffractometry (XRD), Motic digital microscopy, design for preparation of simvastatin loaded nanosus- entrapment efficiency, total drug content, saturated pension significantly improved in vitro dissolution rate, solubility study and in vivo study. A 23 factorial design was and thus possibly enhance fast onset of therapeutic drug employed to study the effect of independent variables, effect. In vivo study shows increase in bioavailability in amount of SLS (X1), amount of PVPK-30 (X2) and nanosuspension formulation than the plain simvastatin Poloxamer-188 (X3) and dependent variables are Total drug.
The selected drug from the authentic literature is in form of dried roots of Picrohiza kurroa belonging to family scrophulariaceae. Analgesic activity of root powder is extracted with alcohol for 7 days. The extracts in these dose levels of 250 mg/kg, 500 mg/kg were tested. The analgesic activity was studied by using the Hot plate and Acetic acid inducedwrithing method in albino mice of either sex. The writhing are measured within 10 min. Results: The 500mg/kg drug of picrorhiza kurroa having similar effect to the standard drug pentazocin at ½ hrs.pentazocin is agonist-antagonist type of analgesic drug.in hot plate method the 500mg/ kg drug of picrorhiza kurroa is effective at the ½ hrs than the 250mg/ kg Conclusions: Dose effective of ethanolic extract of picrorhiza kurroa 500 mg/kg. by Hot plate method and Acetic acid induced writhing method.
Poor water solubility and slow dissolution rate are issues for the majority of upcoming and existing biologically active compounds. Simvastatin is poorly water-soluble drug and its bioavailability is very low from its crystalline form. The purpose of this study wasto increase the solubility and dissolution rate of simvastatin by the preparation of nanosuspension by emulsification solvent diffusion method at laboratory scale. Prepared nanosus-pension was evaluated for its particle size and in vitro dissolution study and characterized by zeta potential,differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-Ray diffractometry (XRD), motic digital microscopy, entrapment efficiency, total drug content, saturated solubility study and in vivo study. A 23 factorial design was employed to study the effect of independent variables, amount of SLS (X1), amount of PVPK-30 (X2) and poloxamer-188 (X3) and dependent variables are total drug content and polydispersity Index.

These results indicate the suitability of 23 factorial design for preparation of simvastatin loaded nano-suspension significantly improved in vitro dissolution rate and thus possibly enhance fast onset of therapeutic drug effect. In vivo study shows increase in bioavailability in nanosuspension formulation than the plain simvastatin drug.
