Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The increasing prevalence of diabetes has prompted the search for alternative therapeutic strategies to manage the condition effectively. Moringa oleifera, known for its medicinal properties, has shown potential in regulating blood sugar levels. This study focuses on the formulation and evaluation of moringa-based tablets intended for diabetes management. Moringa powder was incorporated into tablet formulations using various excipients, and the tablets were subjected to a series of physicochemical tests, including hardness, friability, disintegration time, and drug content uniformity. In vitro release studies were conducted to determine the drug release profile. The pharmacological efficacy of the formulated tablets was assessed using in vivo models to evaluate their effect on blood glucose levels. The results demonstrated that the moringa tablets exhibited favorable physicochemical properties, with consistent drug release patterns and significant hypoglycemic effects. The findings suggest that moringa tablets could be a promising natural alternative for the management of diabetes, offering an accessible and affordable therapeutic option for diabetic patients. Further clinical studies are recommended to confirm the long-term safety and efficacy of these tablets.
