Abstract:
The present work deals with the studies carried out on the development, optimization and validation of RP-HPLC and HPTLC methods for the simultaneous estimation of Telmisartan and Ramipril in combined dosage form. Market is folded with combination of drugs in various dosage forms. The multi-components formulations have gained a lot of importance now days due to greater patient acceptability, increased potency, multiple action, fewer side effects and quicker reliefs. For simultaneous estimation of drugs present in multi-component dosage form, High Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and High Pressure Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) methods are considered to be most suitable since it is extremely precise, accurate, sensitive, linear and rapid.  The literature survey carried out and it revealed that several analytical methods have been reported for estimation of these drugs as individual or in combination with other drugs. So the objective of the work is to develop HPLC and HPTLC methods for simultaneous estimation of drugs in multi-component dosage form for which no analytical method has been previously reported. Hence, present study have been planned to develop a specific, precise, accurate, linear, simple and rapid HPLC and HPTLC methods for simultaneous estimation of Telmisartan and Ramipril in tablet dosage form.

Abstract
The Present investigation was carried out to study the antidiabetic effect of the methanolic extract of plumbago zeylanicain alloxan induced diabetic rats.TheLD50 determination was done in mice by OECD guidelines 423. The LD50 of the plumbago zeylanica was found to be 1000mg/kg. Metformin ( 500 mg/kg p.o) was given as a standard drug. The methanolic extract ( 200 mg/kg p.o) have shown significant antidiabetic activity than ( 100 mg/kg p.o) in alloxan induced diabetic rats by reducing serum Cholesterol, Triglycerides,LDL and increased HDL levels. Histopathological studies also confirmed  the antidiabetic nature of the extract. Our results indicate that extract of plumbago zeylanica have prominent antidiabetic effect in experimental diabetes and can therefore be used as an alternative remedy for the treatment of diabetes mellitus and its complications.

Quinoline and its derivatives are well  known for their antimalarial and antibacterial propertites. A number of quinoline derivatives are known to possess antimicrobial, antitumor, antifungal, hypotensive, anti HIV, analgesics and anti-inflamatory activites. Application of quinoline derivative are fast spreading from antimalarial drugs to almost every branch of medicinal chemistry. Substitution of halogen group in a suitable position of a bioactive molecule is found to exert a profound pharmacological effect.
