My aim of this research proper study was to
formulate with evaluate herbal-base cough syrup using
Lepidium sativum seed extract. Cough syrup
formulations traditionally contain synthetic ingredients,
which can have undesirable side effects. Therefore, the
use of natural herbal extracts as an alternative is gaining
interest. Lepidium sativum, commonly known as garden
cress, is known for its medicinal properties and potential
therapeutic effects for respiratory conditions. In this
study, a cough syrup was developed using Lepidium
sativum seed extract, and its effectiveness and safety
were evaluated. The cough syrup formulation was
prepared by incorporating Lepidium sativum seed
extract with suitable excipients. As I know physical and
chemical properties of the cough syrup, such as color,
odor, viscosity, and pH, were required. The stability of
the cough syrup was evaluated under different storage
conditions. Additionally, further research most probably
required for the cough syrup to in vivo testto determine
its potency and efficacy in relieving cough symptoms.
The results demonstrated that the formulated cough
syrup using Lepidium sativum seed extract had desirable
physical and chemical properties. It exhibited a pleasant
color and odor, appropriate viscosity, and pH within the
acceptable range. The stability studies showed that the
cough syrup remained stable under various storage
conditions, indicating its potential for commercialization.
Our research study revealed that the cough syrup
effectively suppressed cough reflexes induced by various
irritants. Furthermore, our experiments demonstrated
that the cough syrup significantly reduced the frequency
and severity of coughing. These findings suggest that
Lepidium sativum seed extract will be possesses
antitussive properties and can be successfully formulated
into a herbal-based cough syrup.But animal study must
be required for further research. In conclusion, the
developed cough syrup using Lepidium sativum seed
extract exhibited promising properties, stability, and
antitussive efficacy. The utilization of natural herbal
extracts like Lepidium sativum in cough syrup
formulations offers a safer alternative to synthetic
ingredients. Further studies, including clinical trials, are
required to validate the potency, effectiveness and safety
of this herbal based cough syrup in animals and humans.
