Varti Kalpana was in vogue since prehistoric period. Contemporary suppositories are a slight modification of this ancient formulation. Ancient and modern literatures have advocated similar shapes and nearly same routes for administration of Vartis (except Vrana Varti). This formulation is required for the treatment of vital parts and is associated with various important therapeutic activities. A suppository is a medicated solid dosage form intended for use in the rectum, vagina, and to a lesser extent, the urethra. Medicinal plants are huge repertory of innumerable bioactive molecules. They can be traced for their therapeutic potentials and converted into various dosage forms for convenience of treatment. Therefore, recent advances can be utilized for moulding Varti into suppository and enhancing the horizons of therapeutic dosage formsPublished
