Hello..I think any medicines taken without proper guidance is not good.  Multi vitamins, gokshura, shilajit, aswaganda etc are good. But taking all these together for a long period might be harmful. Aswagandha is good to releive stress, lethargy, its is an energy booster. Gokshura is normally given in cases related to urinary system. Renal calculi, cystitis etc. Shilajathu is given for rejuvenation, diabetes, renal calculi etc
Next Steps
Pls consume these medicines only after consulting a Doctor
