    Abstract
    Fast dissolving, fast melting, chewable and orally dissolving or disintegrating tablets are solid dosage forms that disintegrate rapidly and dissolve in the mouth without water. These products have staying power in the marketplace because they appeal to consumers and support increased compliance among users as well as provide effective life-cycle management. The principle challenge with orally disintegrating tablets (ODTs) is to develop tablet formulations that deliver rapid disintegration, pleasant mouth feel and high breaking force for tablet robustness. Superdisintegrants affect a range of formulation parameters; including the rate of disintegration, tablet breaking force, and mouth feel i.e. Polyplasdone XL-10 superdisintegrant provides optimal performance in ODT formulations.

    Abstract:
    Tablet coating is perhaps one of the oldest pharmaceutical processes still in existence. Earlier, Sugar coating was adopted for pharmaceutical as from confectionary industry. But as it was tedious process and required skilled manipulation, film coating was started to be preferred over sugar coating.  Development of film coating was mainly based on solutions of different polymers in various organic solvents. All these solvents are toxic in nature. Nobody ever was concerned about the problems like material cost, toxic effects due to coating or pollution etc. In today's competitive business environment, any cost saved will improve the market viability and success of any product. Therefore, left with no other choice but to eliminate the use of organic solvents and to start using water as the solvent system for tablet coating.
    The main focus of this review is, to study various aspects of aqueous based film coating.

    ABSTRACT:
    Asthma is a respiratory disease that affects both adults and children and asthma is today one of the most common chronic childhood ailments. There is no scientifically proven cure for asthma but it can be controlled and regulated. Natural treatments for asthma are meant to complement, or as an addition, to your existing medication but never as a replacement. Before using an herbal asthma remedy keep in mind that medicinal herbs can be as powerful as pharmaceutical drugs and should be treated as such so it is important to seek the support of your health care provider as some natural herbs for asthma treatment may conflict with pharmaceuticals commonly prescribed for asthma.
