Scientific Investigation of Avipattikar Churna: Traditional Remedy for Hyperacidity Relief

Author(s) Aditya Ramesh Gore, Vishnu Kailas Jadhav

Abstract Avipattikar Churna is a traditional Ayurvedic polyherbal formulation commonly used for the treatment of hyperacidity, gastritis, indigestion, and constipation. The present study was carried out to evaluate its quality and therapeutic potential through physicochemical analysis, phytochemical screening, chromatographic profiling, and anti-ulcer activity assessment. Physicochemical parameters such as moisture content, total ash, acid-insoluble ash, pH, and extractive values were determined according to standard Ayurvedic guidelines. The results showed that all parameters were within acceptable limits, indicating good quality and purity of the formulation.
Preliminary phytochemical screening revealed the presence of important bioactive constituents including alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolics, tannins, glycosides, saponins, and essential oils. HPTLC fingerprint analysis confirmed the presence of marker compounds such as piperine and gallic acid, which contribute to the therapeutic activity of the formulation.
The anti-ulcer activity of Avipattikar Churna was evaluated using the pylorus ligation model. The formulation showed a significant reduction in gastric volume, acidity, and ulcer index compared to the control group, indicating its gastroprotective and antacid properties. The formulation also exhibited antioxidant activity, which may help protect the gastric mucosa from oxidative damage.
The findings of this study support the traditional use of Avipattikar Churna in the management of hyperacidity and other gastric disorders. The formulation demonstrated promising anti-ulcer, antioxidant, and acidity-reducing effects, suggesting its potential as a safe and effective Ayurvedic remedy.
