Below is general information about the safety of the known ingredients contained in the product High-Himalayan Raw Shilajit Liquid with Liquid Fulvic Minerals. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used rectally and appropriately. Glycerol rectal suppositories and enemas are approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for over-the-counter use to treat occasional constipation (15,272). ...when used topically and appropriately as a lotion, emulsion, or humectant (15,272,93754,93758,93759,99164).
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally, short-term. Glycerol has been used with apparent safety in clinical trials at doses of up to 1.5 grams/kg (2474,2475,99162).
POSSIBLY UNSAFE ...when used intravenously. While some research suggests that intravenous glycerol can be safely administered for two consecutive days twice monthly for up to 6 months (106649), in another study, hemolysis was reported in 98% of patients treated with intravenous glycerol for acute ischemic stroke (2482).
CHILDREN: LIKELY SAFE
when used rectally and appropriately.
Glycerol rectal suppositories and enemas are approved by the US FDA for over-the-counter use to treat occasional constipation in children 2 years of age and older (15,272). ...when used topically and appropriately as an emulsion or humectant in children 1 month of age and older (15,272,93756).
CHILDREN: POSSIBLY SAFE
when used orally, short-term.
Glycerol has been used with apparent safety in clinical trials in children 2 months to 16 years of age at doses of 1.5 gram/kg, up to a maximum dose of 25 grams, taken every 6 hours (93762,93763).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using.
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when processed shilajit is used orally and appropriately. Processed shilajit has been used with apparent safety in doses of 2 grams daily for 45 days or up to 500 mg daily for up to 48 weeks (112613,112614,112615,112616,112617,112618,112619,112621). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of crude or unprocessed shilajit when used orally or shilajit when used topically.
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of shilajit when used during pregnancy and lactation.
Below is general information about the interactions of the known ingredients contained in the product High-Himalayan Raw Shilajit Liquid with Liquid Fulvic Minerals. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
Taking shilajit with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Details
Most human and animal research shows that shilajit can decrease fasting plasma glucose levels (112621,112626,112627,112630,112638). 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 (112638). Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary.

Below is general information about the adverse effects of the known ingredients contained in the product High-Himalayan Raw Shilajit Liquid with Liquid Fulvic Minerals. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
General
...Orally, rectally, and topically, glycerol seems to be well tolerated.
Intravenously, glycerol may be unsafe.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Bloating, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and headache.
Topically: Burning, irritation, and pruritus.
Intravenously: Hemolysis in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
Dermatologic ...Topically, glycerol has been reported to cause burning, irritation, and pruritus (93754,93756). Rectally, the regular administration of glycerol 50% enemas has been reported to cause generalized urticaria in at least two patients; in both patients, symptoms resolved after discontinuation (110019,110025).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, glycerol can cause bloating, nausea, vomiting, thirst, and diarrhea (15,2475).
Hematologic ...Intravenously, glycerol has been reported to caused hemolysis in people treated for acute ischemic stroke (2480,2482).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, glycerol can cause mild headache and dizziness (15,2475).
General
...Orally, processed shilajit seems to be well tolerated.
Topically, no adverse effects have been reported. However, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: A case report has raised concerns about pseudohyperaldosteronism.
Cardiovascular ...Orally, a case of hypertension related to mineralocorticoid-excess syndrome or pseudohyperaldosteronism is reported in a 37-year-old female following the use of shilajit for 6 months during pregnancy. Electrocardiographic findings were normal. Product discontinuation and treatment with intravenous and oral potassium led to restoration of blood pressure and potassium levels (112622). The role of shilajit in this adverse effect cannot be confirmed. The presence of other ingredients or contaminants in the product was not ruled out.
Endocrine ...Orally, a case of apparent mineralocorticoid excess, or pseudohyperaldosteronism, with edema, increased urinary potassium, calcium, and magnesium loss, hypokalemia, and metabolic alkalosis, is reported in a 37-year-old female following the use of shilajit for 6 months during pregnancy. Product discontinuation and treatment with intravenous and oral potassium led to restoration of potassium levels (112622). The role of shilajit in this adverse effect cannot be confirmed. The presence of other ingredients or contaminants in the product was not ruled out.
Immunologic ...Orally, a case of allergy to shilajit made worse by exercise is reported in a 43-year-old female. Although symptoms were lacking when shilajit 400 mg was taken daily with meals for 3 months, she developed hives within an hour of taking a single dose of shilajit 800 mg. With intramuscular corticosteroids, symptoms improved but did not resolve. The next day, following a meal and physical activity she developed anaphylaxis requiring adrenaline and intravenous corticosteroids (112620).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, headache is reported rarely following shilajit intake in clinical research (112616).
