Abstract
The study explores the causes, evaluation, and treatment of Acne vulgaris, a chronic inflammatory condition caused by Cutibacterium acnes, affecting the pilosebaceous unit. Tinospora cordifolia which is commonly known as gurjo, guduchi or giloy. It is a Menispermaceae herbaceous vine that is only found in the tropics of the Indian subcontinent. The usefulness of these remedies is still debatable despite clinical research, despite being used in Ayurveda to treat a variety of diseases. It has therapeutic qualities such as anti-diabetic, antipyretic, antispasmodic, anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic, antioxidant, anti-allergic, anti-stress, anti-leprotic, antimalarial, Antimicrobial, hepatoprotective, immunomodulatory, and anti-neoplastic activities, which have been described by scientific research. In this research we have tried to evaluate the formulation of Tinospora cordifolia that shows the Anti-microbial activity for the treatment of Acne vulgaris. We have tested the microbial growth with the help of nutrition broth. We have performed various evaluation parameters of formulation like pH, viscosity, spreadability, physical appearance etc. The results that were obtained were under expectated limits.
