Chemical Required:
Piperazine citrate, chloroform spirit, glycerin, orange oil, syrup, purified water.
Principle:
Piperazine Citrate Elixir is mainly an anthelmintic. This kind of drug works to paralyze parasites that
may invade the host body and cause diseases. It therefore helps to remove the parasites andthus
inhibit the spread of disease in the body. The medicine is used totreat
ascariasis, enterobiasis, also called common pinworms. The drug immobilizes the parasitic worms
first, which are later passed out of the body through stool. This drug can only be obtained with a
proper prescription by your doctor and is not available over the counter. The medicine is available in
the form a tablet or as syrup.

Principle:
A gel is a semi-solid that can have properties ranging from soft and weak to hard and tough. Gels
are defined as a substantially dilute cross-linked system, which exhibits no flow when in the steady-
state. A gel has been defined phenomenologically as a soft, solid or solid-like material consisting of
two or more components, one of which is a liquid, present in substantial quantity.

Procedure:
Step 1: Mix the dry, powdered sodium alginate with distilled water.
For a great gel, use 100 ml of distilled water and 1 teaspoon of sodium alginate (this is a 2%
sodium alginate solution).
Step 2: In another container, mix the calcium chloride with distilled water.
Use a heaping teaspoon of calcium chloride in 100 ml of distilled water (this is a 5% calciumchloride
solution)
Step 3: Make a gel by adding dissolved alginate to the calcium solution.
Using a spoon or a dropper, add (i.e., drop or squirt) a little of the sodium alginate solution into the
calcium chloride solution. In an instant, the calcium reacts with the sugar units in the alginate to
pull the long flexible chains of alginate into a gel.

Requirements:
Apparatus Required:
Mortar and pestle, beaker, sieve No 10, tablet punching machine, hot air oven
Chemical Required:
Paracetamol, lactose, dry starch, magnesium stearate, talc.
Principle:
Paracetamol has analgesic and antipyretic properties but it has no useful anti- inflammatory properties.
Paracetamol is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Paracetamol is categorized under BCS
classification ii tablets are solid dosage forms containing one or more drugs with or without excipients,
prepared by compression. It provides greatest dose precision and least content variability. Inert
materials employed in addition to active ingredients are collectively called tablet additives.
Formula:
Calculation:
Procedure:
The tablets were granulated using wet granulation method as follows.
Paracetamol, lactose and half the quantity of starch were weighed and mixed thoroughly. It was
granulated using 5% starch mucilage as binding agent and passed through no.10 mesh screen. The
obtained the granules were dried at 55ᵒc for 1 hr. After drying, dry screening was done using no.22
mesh screen. The rest of the starch powder along with talc and magnesium stearate were added and
mixed. These granules were compressed into tablets on a 16station cad mach rotary tablet machine
(12mm).
Use: Analgesic, antipyretic, anti- rheumatic.
Dose: 650mg to 1000 mg every 4 hour not exceeding 4000mg per day.
