Abstract

Bajakah root is traditionally used in herbal medicine and exhibits notable antioxidant activity (IC₅₀ = 0.155 mg/mL) with a total flavonoid content of 32.49 ppm. However, conventional consumption by boiling is limited by poor taste, odor, and low stability. To overcome these limitations, this study developed effervescent granules to enhance acceptability and absorption. The effect of combining co-processed excipients (lactose–manihot starch in a ratio of 64.32:35.68) with mannitol on granule characteristics and flavonoid release was investigated. Bajakah root extract was prepared by hot water infusion (90 °C, 15 min; ratios 1:10 and 1:20) followed by freeze-drying. Phytochemical contents were analyzed using UV–Vis spectrophotometry. Co-processed excipients were prepared via wet granulation and characterized by SEM. Formulations with co-processed excipient–mannitol ratios of 3:1, 2:2, and 1:3 were evaluated for physicochemical properties and flavonoid release. Results showed total flavonoid and tannin contents in the extract of 2.19% and 9.04%, respectively. Excipient ratios significantly affected flow rate, angle of repose, moisture content, and disintegration time (p < 0.05), but not pH. All formulations met pharmacopoeial requirements for ≥80% flavonoid release within 60 min. The optimal formulation (1:3) demonstrated excellent properties, supporting its potential as an effective herbal delivery system.

Abstract

Bajakah root ethanol extracts contain flavonoids, phenolics, and tannins as antioxidants that can inhibit tumor growth. However, consuming the pure extract as a supplement has an unpleasant odor and taste. Providing the extract as lozenges may give better taste, control the release of active substances, be absorbed in the oral mucosa, and avoid first-pass metabolism. Sucrose and corn syrup are the main components of lozenge fillers. This study evaluates the combination of maltose-sucrose on physicochemical properties, drug release, and taste acceptance. Bajakah roots were macerated in 50% ethanol (1:5 w/v) for three days, and the filtrate was evaporated. The extract contained 2.18% and 9.03% of flavonoids and tannins, respectively. The high proportion of sucrose increased hardness, sweet taste, pungent aroma, and better release of active substances, but did not affect the disintegration time. The maltose-sucrose weight ratio of 1:1 was selected because it met the requirements for lozenges based on the Indonesian Pharmacopoeia Edition VI, having characteristics of a weight of 250 ± 9.93 mg; hardness of 9.30 ± 2.08 kg; dissolution time of 10.48 ± 4.26 minutes; and released 80% of active substances for 60 minutes. In addition, this formula is stable in storage and is most preferred by respondents.

Abstract

Chemotherapy is one of therapy for patients with cancer. Treatment carboplatin paclitaxel regimen is usually use for cervix, breast, and ovarium cancer. But the data of ADRs in hematology toxicity caused paclitaxel-carboplatin regiment is minimal, so it is required to do research. The aim of this research is can give information about the hematology toxicity, incident, severity, relationship between risk factor due incident of myelosuppression, and relationship between pre post chemotherapy due the myelosuppression. The severity ADRs use CTCAE 5.0. The ADRs were evaluated by severity, descriptive statistics, and some bivariate analysis. Anemia (66.46%) has a highest incident and followed by leukopenia (18.18%), neutropenia (13.22%), and thrombocytopenia (9.09%). Type of cancer associate with incident of anemia, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia. The number of cycle chemotherapy use carboplatin paclitaxel regiments affects significant with the incidence of anemia. Patients who use paclitaxel-carboplatin as a regimen chemotherapy confirmed decrease in hematologic data such as hemoglobin, leukocyte, and thrombocyte.
