HelloPharmacist Scorecard of UriCare by Himalaya

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.

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 16 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Herbal Extract Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (840 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

UriCare contains 16 ingredients, including a proprietary herbal extract blend. The active botanicals include shilajit (in two forms), didymocarpus extract, winter begonia, prickly chaff flower, little ironweed, Indian madder, onosma bracteatum, and cyperus.

The product also contains one inactive ingredient, plant-based cellulose.

Does it work?

Not established
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
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: tone and comfort urinary tract kidney and bladder.
  • We looked for evidence on: Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs), Chronic kidney disease (CKD), Diabetic nephropathy, IgA nephropathy, Membranous nephropathy, Nephrotic syndrome — and 4 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Astragalus is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Diabetic nephropathy (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Astragalus is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Nephrotic syndrome, Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs), IgA nephropathy, Chronic kidney disease (CKD), and more.

The evidence we have on file for the ingredients in UriCare does not establish their effectiveness. Both shilajit and didymocarpus extract (linked to astragalus monograph data) are rated as having insufficient reliable evidence for the conditions they're traditionally used for — meaning we don't have enough quality research to know whether they work.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Adrue Shilajit Astragalus

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 3 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 3 of 3.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 3 of 3.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Shilajit carries several safety cautions. Only use purified, tested brands, because unpurified products may contain heavy metals or other contaminants.

Rare side effects include headache and, in isolated cases, severe allergic reactions including anaphylaxis and hives (especially with doses above 400 mg or after exercise). There's also a case report of high blood pressure linked to shilajit during pregnancy, though a direct cause wasn't confirmed.

Didymocarpus extract (astragalus) is generally well tolerated short-term in healthy adults, though long-term human safety data is limited. Reported side effects are uncommon and include dizziness, rash, and eczema.

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?
  • 3 of the 3 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Adrue, Astragalus, Shilajit.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 460 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.

Check your medications with the tool below if you take antidiabetes drugs (risk of low blood sugar), immunosuppressants, lithium, or cyclophosphamide — these have documented Moderate interactions with ingredients in this product.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you take antidiabetes medications, immunosuppressants, lithium, or cyclophosphamide, check with your pharmacist before starting UriCare — the interactions are real and could affect how your drugs work. For everyone else, the main caution is using a purified, tested brand and being aware that the ingredients lack strong evidence of effectiveness.

Talk to your pharmacist about whether this supplement makes sense for you.

Cyperus3 drug types · 256 drugs

Barbiturates

Animal research suggests that taking adrue in combination with sodium thiopental increases total sleep time three-fold compared to the effects of sodium thiopental alone. Theoretically, concomitant use of adrue and barbiturates might increase the risk of drowsiness and motor reflex depression. Some barbiturates include amobarbital (Amytal), butabarbital (Butisol), mephobarbital (Mebaral), pentobarbital (Nembutal), phenobarbital (Luminal), secobarbital (Seconal), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Benzodiazepines

Animal research suggests that taking adrue in combination with diazepam increases total sleep time four-fold compared to the effects of diazepam alone. Theoretically, concomitant use adrue and benzodiazepines might increase the risk of drowsiness and motor reflex depression. Some benzodiazepines include clonazepam (Klonopin), diazepam (Valium), lorazepam (Ativan), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cns Depressants

Animal research suggests that taking adrue in combination with sodium thiopental or diazepam increases total sleep time up to four-fold compared to the effects of the drugs alone. Theoretically, concomitant use of adrue with CNS depressants might cause additive sedation. Some CNS depressants include benzodiazepines, such as diazepam (Valium), alprazolam (Xanax), triazolam (Halcion), and estazolam (ProSom); barbiturates, such as mephobarbital (Mebaral), phenobarbital (Luminal Sodium), and pentobarbital sodium (Nembutal); zolpidem (Ambien); and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cyperus full monograph & interactions

Didymocarpus extract4 drug types · 208 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking astragalus with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Clinical research in humans shows that astragalus might have hypoglycemic effects. Theoretically, taking astragalus, especially in combination with other hypoglycemic agents, might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.

Likelihood Probable Evidence A
Cyclophosphamide

Theoretically, astragalus might interfere with cyclophosphamide therapy.
Evidence regarding the effect of astragalus on immunosuppression caused by cyclophosphamide is conflicting. Some animal research suggests that astragalus reverses cyclophosphamide-induced immunosuppression. However, other animal research shows no effect.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, astragalus might interfere with immunosuppressive therapy.
Astragalus seems to stimulate immune function. Theoretically, taking astragalus might decrease the effects of immunosuppressive therapy.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, astragalus might increase levels and adverse effects of lithium.
Animal research suggests that astragalus has diuretic properties. Theoretically, due to this diuretic effect, astragalus might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Didymocarpus extract full monograph & interactions

Shilajeet1 drug type · 86 drugs

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.

UriCare by Himalaya: Common Questions

Does UriCare by Himalaya interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, UriCare has a known interaction with 460 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
UriCare contains 16 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 it safe to take UriCare during pregnancy?
No. Shilajit and didymocarpus extract both have insufficient safety data for pregnancy and should be avoided. There's also a case report of high blood pressure in a pregnant woman taking shilajit. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before considering this product if you're pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
Can I take UriCare while breastfeeding?
Safety while breastfeeding is unknown for both shilajit and didymocarpus extract, so it's best avoided. Speak with your pharmacist or doctor for personalized guidance if you're breastfeeding.
What is shilajit and what does it do?
Shilajit is a mineral-rich substance traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine. In this product it's present in two forms. However, we don't have enough reliable evidence to say it works for any specific condition — ratings for sexual function, athletic performance, and other traditional uses are all marked insufficient evidence.
Does UriCare actually work?
The evidence we hold doesn't establish that the active ingredients in UriCare are effective. The ingredients lack sufficient reliable evidence to support their use for any specific condition.
Are there any fillers or other ingredients I should know about?
UriCare contains plant-based cellulose as an inactive ingredient. The 16 active ingredients include herbal extracts; most are part of a proprietary blend, which means their exact amounts aren't disclosed on the label.
Could shilajit cause an allergic reaction?
Yes, though it's rare. A documented case involved a woman who developed hives and then anaphylaxis (a severe whole-body allergic reaction) after taking shilajit, especially with exercise. If you have a history of allergies or if you experience hives, swelling, or difficulty breathing after taking this product, seek medical help right away.
