- Abstract
This review aims to explore the prospective scope of excipients obtained from edible natural sources and its unique application in the field of pharmaceutical formulation development. A systematic literature search was conducted using data base like PubMed, Science Direct, Embase, and Google Scholar. A total of 50 articles were identified and reviewed, which primarily focused on the unique application of edible natural sources as excipients in the field of pharmaceutical formulation development. The results revealed that edible natural sources like Dillenia indica, Abelmoschus esculentus; Oryza sativa L; Artocarpus heterophyllus; Tamarindus indica; Musa paradisiaca; Mangifera indica; Ipomoea batatas; Hibiscus sabdariffa and Solanum tuberosum are a promising source of excipients and have great potential to be used in the formulation of pharmaceutical dosage form. Furthermore, the use of these sources may potentially reduce the costs associated with the production of pharmaceuticals dosage form and could also improve the safety profile of the drugs. The review highlights the importance of the use of edible natural sources as excipients and their potential to revolutionize the field of pharmaceutical formulation development.
