Abstract:
Objective To optimize the molding process of Erzhi pill. Methods Using the external properties of pill the pill weight, disintegration time as the comprehensive evaluation index, the L9(34) orthogonal test was used to test the effects of three factors: the relative density of thick paste(A), the powder fineness(B), and the proportion of powder and honey (C). Results The best molding process was as follows: the relative density of thick paste was 1.25, the powder fineness was 100 meshes, and the proportion of powder and honey was 1: 0.6. Conclusion This optimized molding process proved to be repeatable simple and feasible. The Erzhi pill made by this preparation technology are round, the color and luster are uniform and the dissolving time is short. It provides the basis for studying the molding process of Erzhi pill.
