Abstract

The lipid-based formulation known as Sneha Kalpana contains both ghrta and taila. Sneha kalpana is a pharmaceutical process used to prepare oleaginous medications from substances like kalka, kwatha or dravya dravya taken in a specific ratio and heated for a specific amount of time. Sneha kalpana can be compared with Liposomal system of drug delivery. The present study highlights the importance and superiority of lipid-based preparations from modern and Ayurvedic perspectives. The lipids are used externally and internally in Ayurveda. It has the potential to bypass the blood-brain barrier. The liposomal mechanism of drug delivery is an advancement in the modern medical system. Simple microscopic vesicles are called liposomes which completely surround an aqueous volume in a lipid-based membrane. In this review, we summarize the main applications of liposomes, the superiority of Sneha kalpana and the comparison of sneha kalpana with liposomes.
