Deepak Kumar Tiwari, Mandeep Jaiswal, Jyotima Pandey, Sabhakant Pandey, and Sankalp Singh,DOI: 10.24214/IJGHC/HC/12/3/23237.

Malahara is a pharmaceutical ointment preparation used for local applications and has advantages due to its dosage form. Sarjarasadi malahara is a unique formulation comprising of Sarjarasa, Swarna gairika, Dhanyaka, Tila Taila, Saindhava lavana, go ghrita, and Madhuchhista. It is indicated in Oushtha roga (Lips cracking and lips ulcer). Main aim to develop preliminary standards for Sarjarasadi malahara.  First of all, Madhuchhista (bee wax) is melted by heating with Tila taila (sesame oil) and Go ghrita then it is filtered through a cloth and then fine powder of Sarjarasa, Swarna gairika, Dhanyaka, saindhava lavana are mixed in mixture. In this way sarjarasadi malhara is prepared. These samples were tested for organoleptic and physicochemical properties. The findings of organoleptic characteristics such as appearance, aroma, and taste, as well as physico-chemical parameters such as pH, loss, and drying, were carried out as available parameters. Sarjarasadi malahara is mainly used in Oushtharoga (Lip diseases). As a result, the significance of Malhara in oushtharogas and quality control criteria is stressed in this research.
