Description

Himalaya Cystone tablets: herbal urinary support

Cystone is Himalaya Wellness’s long-established Ayurvedic formula for urinary tract health. Its main herbs, pasanabheda and shilapushpa, have been used in Ayurveda for generations to support the kidneys and the flow of urine.

What it’s used for

• Supporting healthy urinary tract and kidney function
• Traditionally used to help the body pass small urinary crystals and gravel

Kidney stones can cause severe pain and infection. If you have stones, blood in your urine, fever or severe back or side pain, see a doctor. Cystone can be used alongside their care, not instead of it.

How to take it

• Adults: 2 tablets twice a day, or as directed by your doctor
• Children: only on a doctor’s advice
• Drink plenty of water through the day: 2 to 3 litres unless your doctor says otherwise

Key ingredients

• Pasanabheda (Saxifraga ligulata): traditionally used to help flush small stones and gravel
• Shilapushpa (Didymocarpus pedicellata): traditionally used to discourage stone formation

Possible side effects

Himalaya reports no significant side effects at the recommended dose. Some users mention mild headache, constipation or indigestion. Stop and see a doctor if anything worries you.

Who should not take it, or should check first

• Do not use if you have a complete blockage of the urinary tract
• Pregnant or breastfeeding women
• Anyone with kidney disease or on prescription medicines

Frequently asked questions

What is Himalaya Cystone used for?

Cystone is an Ayurvedic herbal supplement traditionally used to support urinary tract and kidney health and to help the body pass small urinary crystals.

Can Cystone dissolve kidney stones?

Cystone is traditionally used to help pass small stones and gravel, but it isn’t a proven treatment for kidney stones. Larger stones need a doctor’s care, so get any suspected stone checked.

How long should I take Cystone?

Follow your doctor’s advice. People commonly take it for several weeks. Drinking plenty of water is just as important.

Does Cystone have side effects?

Himalaya reports no significant side effects at the recommended dose. Some people report mild headache, constipation or indigestion.

When should I see a doctor instead?

Straight away if you have severe pain in your back or side, fever, vomiting, blood in your urine or you can’t pass urine.

What is the difference between Cystone tablets and Cystone syrup?

They contain the same type of herbal formula. The syrup is easier for people who struggle to swallow tablets. Follow the directions on the pack you buy.
