HelloPharmacist Scorecard of High-Himalayan Raw Dark Shilajit by Omica Organics

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1,100 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This capsule contains 2 active ingredients. Shilajit extract is a mineral-rich substance traditionally used in Ayurvedic practice — the product focuses on a high-Himalayan source.

The other active is silica, a form of silicon that plays a structural role in bone and connective tissue. The capsule itself is made of pullulan, an inactive ingredient.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports its ingredients for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Osteoporosis — rated "Possibly Effective" (Silicon) (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for shilajit in this product isn't established for most uses we checked — Alzheimer's disease, sexual dysfunction, athletic performance, benign prostatic hyperplasia, and osteopenia all fall under insufficient reliable evidence. Silica shows possibly effective evidence for osteoporosis, but insufficient evidence for hair loss and dental implant health.

The data we hold doesn't establish that this product works for its marketed purpose.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Silicon Shilajit

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Silica taken by mouth in food and supplement amounts isn't linked to adverse effects in normal use, though long-term safety at high doses hasn't been well studied. Shilajit carries a caution about heavy metal and contamination risk — only purified, tested brands are recommended.

A rare case of severe allergic reaction and one report of headache appear in the literature. One case linked shilajit use to high blood pressure during pregnancy, though the role shilajit played couldn't be confirmed.

Silica is rated likely safe in pregnancy; shilajit is not — the safety data advises against it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Silicon Shilajit

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Shilajit.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 86 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Antidiabetes drugs (like metformin and glibenclamide) — shilajit may boost their glucose-lowering effect and increase hypoglycemia risk. This is a Moderate severity interaction.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you take diabetes medications, check with your pharmacist before using this product — shilajit can enhance their effect and lower your blood sugar too far. Choose only purified, tested brands to minimize contamination risk.

Pregnant or breastfeeding people should skip this product. Talk to your pharmacist if you're considering it for a specific health goal.

Antidiabetes Drugs

Taking shilajit with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Most human and animal research shows that shilajit can decrease fasting plasma glucose levels. In an animal model, shilajit 100 mg per kg daily enhanced the glucose-lowering ability of both glibenclamide and metformin when given in combination over a 4 week period. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary.

High-Himalayan Raw Dark Shilajit by Omica Organics: Common Questions

Does High-Himalayan Raw Dark Shilajit by Omica Organics interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, High-Himalayan Raw Dark Shilajit has a known interaction with 86 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
High-Himalayan Raw Dark Shilajit contains 2 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Not recommended. Shilajit is best avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding because safety data is insufficient and contamination risk exists. Silica is rated likely safe in pregnancy, but the product as a whole isn't advised. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist for guidance.
Will this help with memory or Alzheimer's disease?
The evidence isn't established in our data. We hold insufficient reliable evidence for shilajit's use in Alzheimer's disease, so we can't say whether it works for that purpose.
What's silica, and why is it in this product?
Silica is a form of silicon found in bone and connective tissue. The evidence suggests it may help with osteoporosis, which is likely why it's included here. Taken by mouth in normal supplement amounts, it's generally well tolerated.
Are there any side effects I should know about?
Silica and shilajit in normal supplement amounts aren't tied to common side effects. Rarely, shilajit has caused headache. One serious allergic reaction to shilajit is reported in the literature. High-dose or long-term safety of silica hasn't been well studied.
I take diabetes medication — can I use this?
Not without checking with your pharmacist first. Shilajit can boost how well your diabetes drugs work and lower your blood sugar too far. Run your exact medications through our interaction checker before starting.
Should I worry about heavy metals in shilajit?
Yes, it's worth thinking about. Unpurified shilajit products may contain heavy metals or contaminants. This product says it's purified, but pick only tested brands you trust.
