Hai,
Shilajit is an ayurvedic product to boost immunity. It basically contains trace minerals and occasional blends of plant products. It will definitely affect the action of homoeopathic medicines. There are effective homoeopathic medicines to boost up your immunity. Better to take it according to doctor's advice.

You will get permanent cure with homoeopathic constitutional medicine because I had cure many similar cases.
Need more details for proper treatment and guidance.

If you have kidney stones, be a little careful with adding supplements like shilajit on your own.
Both Berberis vulgaris and Hydrangea arborescens are commonly used in homeopathy for stone-related symptoms, and generally there is no known direct interaction with shilajit. However, shilajit itself can sometimes be risky in kidney stone patients.
Next Steps
Points to know about Shilajit:
• Some products may contain heavy metals or impurities if not purified properly.
• It is rich in minerals, and in some people it may increase uric acid levels, which can worsen certain types of kidney stones.
• If your stone is uric acid stone or you already have high uric acid, gout, or kidney dysfunction, avoid taking it without medical advice.
• If you still want to take it, use only a good-quality purified product and keep the dose low.
Health Tips
More important for stone prevention:
• Drink enough water to produce 2–2.5 liters urine/day.
• Reduce excess salt.
• Avoid very high oxalate foods if your stone is calcium oxalate type.
• Get a stone analysis and urine test if not already done.

Hello.
You are already taking 2 medicine at a time which is not indicated in homoeopathy as it may form a complex.
But as a supplementary nutrition you can take shilajit for 1 month.
Not more than that without proper consultation.

For kidney stones, remedies like Berberis vulgaris and Hydrangea arborescens are commonly used in homeopathy based on symptom similarity.
Regarding Shilajit, it is generally considered a health supplement and not a direct homeopathic medicine. While there is no strict contraindication in most cases, combining multiple substances without proper evaluation is not advisable, especially in conditions like kidney stones.
Kidney stones vary in type (calcium oxalate, uric acid, etc.), and treatment depends on this
Shilajit may affect mineral metabolism and kidney function in some individuals
Taking multiple remedies/supplements together can confuse the symptom picture and reduce effectiveness of individualized homeopathic treatment
What is recommended:
Stick to one well-selected remedy under guidance
Maintain good hydration
Get proper evaluation (ultrasound, urine analysis)
Avoid self-combining multiple therapies
Before adding Shilajit, it is better to consult a qualified doctor who can assess your stone type, kidney function, and overall constitution.

You can take Shilajit with Berberis vulgaris and Hydrangea arborescens, but it’s not really necessary for kidney stones and in some cases, it may not help. It’s more stamina and you can use alternative for that too

Well,
Shilajit is not strictly contraindicated with homeopathic medicines like Berberis or Hydrangea, but adding it in kidney stone cases should be done cautiously. Shilajit may increase mineral load and, in some cases, can potentially worsen stone formation if not properly purified or if taken in excess.
Before adding shilajit, it’s better to:
confirm the type of stone (calcium oxalate, uric acid, etc.)
Next step: Avoid starting shilajit on your own. Get medical advice first, especially if stones are recurrent or symptomatic.
Caution: Low-quality or impure shilajit can contain heavy metals, which may harm kidneys.

In classical homeopathy, the introduction of a strong, crude substance like Shilajit—which has its own physiological "signature"—can sometimes interfere with or "antidote" the subtle action of the homeopathic dilutions. From a holistic perspective, it is generally preferred to let the primary remedies work without the interference of potent resins during an acute or active stone-passing phase.
