The 8 plants in Cystone have been selected by Ayurvedic medicine for centuries of empirical use to support kidney and urinary health, and Himalaya Wellness has complemented this knowledge with clinical and pharmacological studies documenting the mechanisms of action of each ingredient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDidymocarpus pedicellata (Shilapushpa) 130mg: the main litholytic and antimicrobial agent:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDidymocarpus pedicellata\u003c\/strong\u003e (Shilapushpa, \"stone flower\" in Sanskrit — a name evocative of its traditional use in kidney stones) is the anchor ingredient in the Cystone formula and the most studied of its components. It has two main mechanisms of action: \u003cstrong\u003elitholytic\u003c\/strong\u003e (ability to reduce kidney stone formation by inhibiting the crystallization of calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate, the two main compounds of the most common kidney stones) and \u003cstrong\u003eantimicrobial\u003c\/strong\u003e (inhibits the growth of uropathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia coli, the most common agent of urinary tract infections). Preclinical studies have documented that D. pedicellata extract reduced crystalluria (urinary excretion of crystals) and oxalate accumulation in the kidneys in hyperoxaluria models, confirming the pharmacological basis of its traditional use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSaxifraga ligulata (Pasanabheda) 98mg: the stone dissolver and protector of the urinary mucosa:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSaxifraga ligulata\u003c\/strong\u003e (Pasanabheda, \"that which breaks the stone\" in Sanskrit) is the second most concentrated ingredient in the formula. It has properties of \u003cstrong\u003esoothing and protecting the tissues of the urinary mucosa\u003c\/strong\u003e (anti-inflammatory and demulcent effects that reduce the discomfort of stone passage and urethral inflammation), \u003cstrong\u003ediuretic\u003c\/strong\u003e effect (increases urinary volume, diluting solutes and reducing the saturation of potentially crystallizable salts), and anti-lithogenic action (inhibits the aggregation and growth of oxalate and phosphate crystals, facilitating their elimination in smaller particles). The increased urinary output caused by Saxifraga ligulata \"sweeps\" crystals and small stones along the urinary tract, facilitating their natural expulsion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRubia cordifolia (Manjishtha) 32mg: the anti-inflammatory and protector of the urinary tract:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRubia cordifolia\u003c\/strong\u003e (Manjishtha, Indian madder) is a climbing plant of the Rubiaceae family whose roots contain anthraquinones (alizarin, purpurin, munjistin) with documented anti-inflammatory (inhibition of COX-2 and NF-κB), antioxidant, and antibacterial properties. In the context of Cystone, R. cordifolia acts as a \u003cstrong\u003eprotector of the urinary tract mucosa\u003c\/strong\u003e against inflammation caused by moving stones and bacterial action in urinary infections. Anthraquinones also have a urine-alkalizing effect (relevant because urinary acidity favors the precipitation of uric acid and some types of oxalate) and an effect of reducing platelet aggregation (improving renal microcirculation).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAchyranthes aspera 32mg: the diuretic that facilitates fluid elimination:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAchyranthes aspera\u003c\/strong\u003e is recognized by the Himalaya Wellness website specifically for its \u003cstrong\u003ediuretic effect\u003c\/strong\u003e which facilitates the elimination of bodily fluids. The increased urinary output induced by A. aspera is the most direct mechanism for preventing kidney stones: by increasing urine volume, it dilutes the concentration of all solutes (calcium, oxalate, uric acid, phosphate) reducing urinary saturation and the crystallization index — the main risk factor for the formation of new stones. The diuretic effect also accelerates the progression and expulsion of small stones and gravel along the urinary tract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCyperus scariosus (Nagarmotha) 32mg: the urinary antiseptic and antispasmodic:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCyperus scariosus\u003c\/strong\u003e (Nagarmotha, rhizome) is a plant of the Cyperaceae family with \u003cstrong\u003eurinary antiseptic\u003c\/strong\u003e properties (acts on uropathogenic bacteria) and \u003cstrong\u003eantispasmodic\u003c\/strong\u003e properties (relaxation of the smooth muscle of the ureter and bladder, relevant for relieving pain and discomfort caused by the progression of stones along the ureter).

It contains fulvic acid (its main bioactive compound), humic acid, numerous trace minerals, amino acids, and phytochemicals. In the Cystone formula, Shilajit is specifically highlighted by Himalaya as supporting \u003cstrong\u003eurinary tract and prostate health in men\u003c\/strong\u003e — fulvic acid has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and mineral-regulating properties that can contribute to reducing prostatic inflammation and maintaining male urological function.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\"\u003eUses\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended dose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Take 1 tablet twice a day with main meals, with a glass of water.
