HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Shilajithills by Herbal Hills

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.

Shilajithills contains one active ingredient: shuddha shilajit, a purified mineral-rich substance traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine. The product has no other inactive ingredients listed.

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 (“Vitality support”), not a specific health condition, so there is no single claim to grade against clinical-evidence data.

The evidence for shilajit's effectiveness is not established in the data we hold. Research on it for Alzheimer disease, sexual dysfunction, athletic performance, benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate), and osteoporosis all show insufficient reliable evidence to rate.

Before relying on this product for any of these conditions, talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist.

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.

A key safety concern is purity: unpurified shilajit products may contain heavy metals or other contaminants, so use only purified, tested brands like this one. Rare side effects reported include headache and, in one case, a serious allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) triggered by exercise after taking shilajit.

A single case of elevated blood pressure related to mineral imbalance was reported during pregnancy, though a direct link to shilajit couldn't be confirmed. Shilajit is best avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to insufficient safety data and contamination risk.

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.

If you take antidiabetes drugs (like metformin or insulin), check with your doctor or pharmacist before adding shilajit — it may increase your risk of low blood sugar. No interactions are documented for other medication types in our data, but that doesn't mean none exist.

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.

Shilajithills may be of interest to people exploring traditional remedies, but the evidence for its effectiveness isn't established. The main caution is if you take antidiabetes medications — the combination could lower your blood sugar too much.

Because shilajit carries rare but serious allergy risk and pregnancy/breastfeeding safety is unclear, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting it.

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.

Shilajithills by Herbal Hills: Common Questions

Does Shilajithills by Herbal Hills interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Shilajithills 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?
Shilajithills 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.
Is shilajit safe to take during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
No. Safety data is insufficient during pregnancy, and contamination risk is a concern, so it's best avoided. Safety while breastfeeding is also unknown, so avoid it then too. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
Can shilajit cause allergic reactions?
Allergies to shilajit are rare, but a serious one has been reported. A woman developed hives at a higher dose and then anaphylaxis (a severe whole-body reaction) after taking shilajit with a meal and exercise. If you notice hives, swelling, or difficulty breathing after taking this product, seek emergency care.
What is shuddha shilajit?
Shuddha shilajit is a purified mineral-rich substance used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. It's processed to remove contaminants like heavy metals, which is why using a tested, purified brand matters.
Does shilajit work for Alzheimer disease, sexual dysfunction, or athletic performance?
The evidence for shilajit in these areas — and for benign prostatic hyperplasia and osteoporosis — is insufficient to rate. We don't have reliable data showing it works for these conditions, so talk with your doctor about whether it's right for you.
What side effects does shilajit have?
Headache has been reported rarely in clinical research. A severe allergic reaction triggered by exercise has occurred in one case. Because contamination is a risk with unpurified products, always choose a tested, purified brand.
