Higher risk for: elderly, those with liver or kidney impairment, polypharmacy (5+ medications), recent medication changes, or those with multiple chronic conditions. Consult your pharmacist for specific risk factors.
Some minerals can bind to medications in the stomach and reduce absorption. Separate Shilajit and Orlistat by at least 2 hours when possible. Watch for: changes in medication effectiveness, digestive discomfort, constipation or diarrhea, metallic taste, or nausea.
