Abstract

Itchy leaf [Laportea decumana (Roxb.) Wedd] is one of the endemic plants of Papua that has proven as pain and fatigue. This study aimed to formulate an itchy leaf powder and determine the physical quality of the powder then skin irritation test on itchy leaf powder (L.decumana). The methods used in this study were collecting the sample, preparing simplicia in three formulas, formulating the powder, testing the physical quality, and testing the skin irritation by the four-hour patch method. The results of the study showed that itchy leaf powder had an FI strength (99.03%), FII (99.0%), FIII (98.47%) with FI moisture (1.21%), FII (1.35%), FIII (1.42%), and pH FI (5.98), FII (6.10), FIII (6.22).
