HelloPharmacist Scorecard of High-Himalayan Shilajit Powder 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

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains a single active ingredient: shilajit extract. Shilajit is a mineral-rich substance traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine.

Since this is a single-ingredient powder with no other inactive fillers or binders on file, you're getting shilajit and nothing else.

Does it work?

No specific claim
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
General wellness

This Shilajit product is marketed for general wellness, not a specific health condition, so there's no single claim to grade — see Shilajit's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets general wellness (“General vitality and energy support”), not a specific health condition, so there is no single claim to grade against clinical-evidence data.

The evidence for shilajit isn't established yet for the conditions we have data on. Our records show insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for Alzheimer disease, sexual dysfunction, athletic performance, benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate), and osteopenia (low bone density).

That doesn't mean it doesn't work — it means the research so far hasn't been strong enough to say one way or the other.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient 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 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Shilajit is generally well tolerated, though a small number of side effects have been reported. One person developed a severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) after taking a higher dose, and another rarely reported headache.

A case of high blood pressure was noted in someone who took shilajit during pregnancy, though whether shilajit caused it isn't clear. The safety data advises against shilajit during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

Importantly, unpurified shilajit may contain heavy metals or other contaminants — only use purified, tested brands like this one.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient 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 1 matched ingredient 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 are the main concern — shilajit can enhance their glucose-lowering effect and increase your risk of low blood sugar. If you take metformin, glibenclamide, insulin, or any other diabetes medication, check with your pharmacist before starting this product.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula marketed for general wellness rather than one specific gradeable purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This single-ingredient shilajit powder is an option if you're interested in traditional mineral supplementation, but evidence for its claimed benefits hasn't been established yet. If you take diabetes medication, talk with your pharmacist first — shilajit can lower blood sugar.

Avoid it if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

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 Shilajit Powder by Omica Organics: Common Questions

Does High-Himalayan Shilajit Powder by Omica Organics interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, High-Himalayan Shilajit Powder 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 Shilajit Powder contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism 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.
Does shilajit actually work for Alzheimer disease, sexual performance, or athletic endurance?
The research we have isn't strong enough yet to say for certain. We rate all of these — Alzheimer disease, sexual dysfunction, and athletic performance — as having insufficient reliable evidence. That means you shouldn't expect proven benefits for these uses right now.
Can I take this while I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data advises against it. There isn't enough safety information to know whether shilajit could affect your baby during pregnancy or pass into breastmilk, so it's best avoided during both. Talk with your doctor if you're considering it.
What's the allergy risk?
Allergic reactions are rare, but one person developed a serious reaction (anaphylaxis) after taking a larger dose. If you have a history of allergies, start cautiously and watch for hives, swelling, or difficulty breathing. Stop immediately and seek help if those appear.
Is this shilajit purified?
Omica Organics' product should be purified and tested, but the facts don't spell out the exact purification method. Unpurified shilajit can contain heavy metals or contaminants, so make sure your brand is tested for safety before use.
What if my blood sugar drops while I'm on diabetes medication?
Shilajit can lower blood glucose and boost the effect of antidiabetes drugs, which raises the risk of low blood sugar. You'll want your pharmacist or doctor to monitor your blood sugar and possibly adjust your medication dose if you add shilajit.
