Research at the Heart

If there is one word that captures the essence of Himalaya, it is research. It lies at the heart of everything we do. While drawing from ancient Ayurvedic texts, our scientists have validated the safety and efficacy of our herbal formulations using modern science. Each herb is studied in great detail to establish its known and unknown therapeutic benefits. We have studied over 10,000 herbs and discovered many new properties. In just eight years, we have filed over 90 patents.

Yet, our scientists are busy researching herbal drugs for conditions like cancer, depression, and women's health, amongst others.

Through research, Himalaya has introduced several innovative products. Cystone, Himplasia and Septilin are some of our breakthrough drugs that are prescribed by doctors across the world. Cystone, used in the treatment of urinary stones, is the only herbal drug available for this condition. It is backed by over 90 clinical trials. Himplasia is the first herbal formulation that controls benign prostate hyperplasia. The efficacy of these drugs is comparable to allopathic medicines, without any side effects. While herbs may not provide the answer to all unmet medical needs, they can make a significant contribution to overall health care.

We have applied the research strength of our Pharmaceutical products to Personal Care as well.

At Himalaya, we will continue to focus on research and build credibility for herbal medicines and personal care products. Our customers understand that all our products are a result of years of research.
