QUESTIONS
About the formulation /
product
 ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:

a. What is the therapeutic indication of the active

ingredient?
Taro root is high in Folate and iron, both of which
are necessary for hair follicle strength. It encourages
new hair sprouts, which helps to give volume to your
hair. Copper in the root can also help to prevent hair
from greying and make it lustrous and black. It is also
thought to reduce hair breakage.
 ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:
b. Do you think the dosage form you chose appropriate with
the active ingredients, therapeutic indication, and route of
administration? Why?
Yes, I think that gel is the right dosage form for Taro Roots as
the active ingredient because the hair advantages of the stated active
ingredient are beneficial to people, particularly those who wish to
retain their healthier hair and grow their hair. With the benefits
associated, Taro roots will be more effective if the proper dosage
form is used, which is to manufacture it as a gel. Since many
formulas use taro roots as a shampoo, I suppose it is also
appropriate and more convenient if it is made as a gel.
 ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:

c. What are the manufacturing

equipment/s that will be used in
producing your formulation?

be used in the formulation are Homogenizer or
Osterizer and beaker.
 ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:
d. Who are the target consumers of your product? Do you
think it can compete with other existing products with the
same active ingredient? Why?
People who want to maintain their healthier hair, adults or elderly people
who are experiencing hair loss, people who have tumors and want to regrow
their hair, people who want to thicken their hair, end up making it shiny and
black, and people who are experiencing hair damages are the target consumers
of my product. It can be used by anyone, including newborn babies if
necessary. Yes, I think it can compete with other existing products containing
the same active ingredient because, despite the fact that we are using the same
active ingredient, the excipients are much safer, as all of the excipients are
organic, reducing the risk of toxicities and making the formulation more
