Some herbs, such as saffron, rosella, fenugreek, turmeric, etc., have been found to contain chemicals that help maintain normal liver cells to support the system. However, they are poorly soluble in water, resulting in low bioavailability (BA). The Self-emulsifying Drug Delivery System (SEDDS) is the delivery of active drugs to the target organs rather than normal administration, which are enhancing soluble of active that are lipophilicity (poorly water solubility). This method can enhance the novelty. Advanced research shows that BA is present in 60–70% of cases that are satisfaction of patient.
