ABSTRACT
Five Marketed Ayurvedic Tailam Formulations[1] [Table 2]of reputed manufacturers were screened for wound healing activity in different types of wound models in rats [Excision and Incision wound models]. Complete filling and healing of wounds was observed for 12 days after daily application of the tailams. All the tailams produced a significant response in wound healing. The results were also comparable to standard drug Povidone iodine ointment in terms of wound contracting ability, percentage wound closure and tensile strength
