Divya Ashmarihar Ras – Ayurvedic Kidney Stone & Urinary Health Powder | 50g

Divya Ashmarihar Ras – Clinical Series

Divya Ashmarihar Ras is a classical Ayurvedic mineral-herbal formulation (Rasa Shastra preparation) traditionally used for the management of urinary disorders, with a primary focus on kidney stones (nephrolithiasis), urinary tract infections, and related renal conditions. Prepared under the Divya Pharmacy label by Patanjali, this formulation combines purified minerals and potent botanical extracts to exert litholytic, diuretic, and anti-inflammatory actions on the urinary system.

Key Ingredients

• Shuddha Parada (Purified Mercury) – Processed through classical Shodhana purification; the base of Kajjali, which acts as a bioavailability enhancer for co-ingredients
• Shuddha Gandhak (Purified Sulphur) – Anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory; supports kidney and skin health
• Shilajit (Asphaltum purpureum) – A potent adaptogen and diuretic; rich in fulvic acid and dibenzo-alpha-pyrones known to support renal function and mineral metabolism
• Guggulu (Commiphora mukul) – Anti-inflammatory resin; supports detoxification and reduces urinary tract inflammation
• Yavakshara (Potassium Carbonate) – Alkalising agent; helps dissolve calcium oxalate and uric acid stones by modifying urinary pH
• Apamarga Kshara (Achyranthes aspera) – Classical lithotriptic (stone-breaking) herb; promotes urine flow and reduces crystallisation
• Loha Bhasma (Iron Calx) – Supports haemoglobin levels and tones the renal system

Clinical Benefits

• Kidney Stone Management: The Kshara alkaloids (Yavakshara, Apamarga Kshara) elevate urinary pH and exert litholytic activity, helping dissolve calcium oxalate and struvite stones while inhibiting recurrence
• Diuretic Action: Increases urine output, facilitating passive flushing of stone fragments and urinary tract bacteria — particularly beneficial post-lithotripsy
• Anti-inflammatory & Antimicrobial: Guggulu and Gandhak reduce mucosal inflammation along the urinary tract, supporting recovery from UTIs and cystitis
• Renal Support: Shilajit's fulvic acid complex supports glomerular filtration and protects renal tubular cells from oxidative damage
• Dosha Balance: Corrects aggravated Vata and Kapha doshas, which are classically associated with urinary gravel, scanty urination, and nephrolithiasis in Ayurvedic diagnostics

Evidence & Research

A 2019 review in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology documented Apamarga Kshara's significant antiurolithic activity, demonstrating inhibition of calcium oxalate crystal nucleation and aggregation in vitro. Shilajit has been studied for its nephroprotective properties, with a 2016 study in Phytotherapy Research confirming antioxidant activity relevant to oxidative renal stress. The diuretic and stone-inhibitory effects of Yavakshara are supported by classical Ayurvedic pharmacopoeial texts (API, Vol. IV) and contemporary Rasa Shastra literature.
