HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic Dashamula Powder by Banyan Botanicals

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 Aug 27, 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 10 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (0.50 Teaspoon(s)) without saying how much of each component you get.

Organic Dashamula Powder is a 10-ingredient Ayurvedic blend. The two ingredients we have detailed interaction data for are bilva (bael fruit) and gokshura (tribulus terrestris).

The remaining eight — agnimantha, shyonka, patala, gambhari, bruhati, kantakari, shalaparni, and prishniparni — are traditional botanical components of this formula. This product contains no inactive fillers or other ingredients beyond these actives.

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: Sexual dysfunction — rated "Possibly Effective" (Tribulus) (Natural Medicines).

Bilva has insufficient evidence to reliably rate its use for asthma or shigellosis (a bacterial infection). Gokshura (tribulus) is possibly effective for sexual dysfunction based on available research, but is possibly ineffective for athletic performance.

Safety and efficacy data for the other eight ingredients in this blend are not established in our records.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Bael Tribulus

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.

Bilva is generally well tolerated as a food in its ripe form, but concentrated supplements lack strong safety data. Large amounts may cause stomach upset and constipation.

The safety data advises against medicinal use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Gokshura is often well tolerated short-term in healthy adults, though long-term safety data are limited.

The safety data advises against it during pregnancy because it may affect hormones, and during breastfeeding due to insufficient safety information. Rare serious effects have been reported with tribulus, including liver and kidney injury and seizures, though these are uncommon.

Gastrointestinal complaints like nausea, cramping, and diarrhea can occur but were similar to placebo in one study.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Bael Tribulus

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Tribulus, Bael.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 961 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.

Before taking this product, check with your own doctor or pharmacist if you take antidiabetes drugs (including insulin), antihypertensive medications (blood pressure drugs), cholinergic drugs (like donepezil for Alzheimer's), lithium, or any drug metabolized by the liver enzymes CYP1A2 or CYP3A4. These are Moderate to Minor severity interactions that may require dose adjustments or monitoring.

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.

This traditional Ayurvedic blend is best for someone familiar with herbal medicine who doesn't take blood sugar or blood pressure medications, or lithium. If you're on any of those drugs, or if you're pregnant or breastfeeding, talk it over with your own doctor or pharmacist before starting — the interaction risk and safety data matter here.

Bilva4 drug types · 819 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Evidence from animal research suggests that extracts of bael seed and leaf can reduce blood glucose levels. Theoretically, bael might have additive effects with antidiabetes drugs and increase the risk of hypoglycemia. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary.
Some antidiabetes drugs include glimepiride (Amaryl), glyburide (DiaBeta, Glynase PresTab, Micronase), insulin, pioglitazone (Actos), rosiglitazone (Avandia), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cholinergic Drugs

Bael leaf extract shows acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activity in vitro. Theoretically, bael might have additive effects with cholinergic drugs and increase the risk of cholinergic side effects.
Cholinergic drugs include bethanechol (Urecholine), donepezil (Aricept), echothiophate (Phospholine Iodide), edrophonium (Enlon, Reversol, Tensilon), neostigmine (Prostigmin), physostigmine (Antilirium), pyridostigmine (Mestinon, Regonol), succinylcholine (Anectine, Quelicin), and tacrine (Cognex).

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Bael extract and its constituent marmesinin inhibited cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) activity in vitro. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans. Theoretically, bael might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
Some drugs metabolized by CYP1A2 include amitriptyline (Elavil), haloperidol (Haldol), ondansetron (Zofran), propranolol (Inderal), theophylline (Theo-Dur, others), verapamil (Calan, Isoptin, others), and others. Use bael cautiously or avoid in patients taking these drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Bael and its constituents marmelosin and marmesinin inhibited cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) activity in vitro. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans. Theoretically, bael might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
Some drugs metabolized by CYP3A4 include lovastatin (Mevacor), ketoconazole (Nizoral), itraconazole (Sporanox), fexofenadine (Allegra), triazolam (Halcion), and numerous others. Use bael cautiously or avoid in patients taking these drugs.

Gokshura3 drug types · 259 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Taking tribulus with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Clinical research shows that Tribulus can lower blood glucose levels in adults with type 2 diabetes who are taking antidiabetes medications.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking tribulus with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Animal research shows that tribulus can lower blood pressure by inhibiting angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Tribulus has also demonstrated hypotensive effects in pre-hypertensive adults.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, tribulus might increase the levels and clinical effects of lithium.
Tribulus is thought to have diuretic properties. Due to these potential diuretic effects, tribulus might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.

Organic Dashamula Powder by Banyan Botanicals: Common Questions

Does Organic Dashamula Powder by Banyan Botanicals interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Organic Dashamula Powder has a known interaction with 960 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Organic Dashamula Powder contains 10 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.
Is Dashamula safe to take while pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data advises against medicinal use during pregnancy for bilva (one of the two ingredients we have safety data for), and during breastfeeding for both bilva and gokshura. There isn't enough reliable information on the other eight ingredients. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you in these situations.
What side effects might I experience?
Bilva may cause stomach upset and constipation, especially in large amounts. Gokshura is generally well tolerated, but can cause abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation — though in one study these rates matched placebo. Serious effects like liver or kidney injury and seizures with tribulus are rare.
Does Dashamula help with asthma?
Bilva (one of its main ingredients) has insufficient evidence to reliably rate its effectiveness for asthma. We don't have established effectiveness data for the other ingredients in this blend for that use.
Can I take this for sexual function?
Gokshura (tribulus), one of the ingredients, is possibly effective for sexual dysfunction based on available research. The effectiveness of the other ingredients for this purpose is not established in our data.
What does each ingredient actually do?
This is a traditional Ayurvedic formula where all 10 ingredients work together. We have focused interaction and safety data only for bilva and gokshura; the roles and evidence for the other eight are not detailed in our records.
