Majun Salab uses: what is it traditionally used for?

In Unani practice, a majun like this is taken as a general men’s tonic. Salab Misri, the orchid tuber behind its name, is a classic tonic ingredient. People often look up Majun Salab ke fayde, but results vary and we promise none. Hamdard prints its own indications on the pack, so read that label and speak to a qualified Unani practitioner about your health.

What is in this majun?

The published formula lists 14 ingredients.

Two of these are animal-derived (earthworm and shrimp), so this majun is not vegetarian and not suitable for vegans. It also contains ghee, sesame, walnut and sugar. Match the list to your jar. The label is the final word.

How do you take it?

Hamdard publishes a direction of 5 g once a day in the morning with 250 ml of milk. Follow your own label first.

Pharmacist tip: weigh your first few doses on a kitchen scale, so you know what 5 g looks like. Use a clean, dry spoon.

Who should not take it?

• Children under 18, and pregnant or breastfeeding women.
• Vegetarians and vegans, because of the earthworm and shrimp.
• Anyone with diabetes or told to limit sugar, since the base is sugar syrup.
• Anyone allergic to sesame, walnut, milk, ghee or shellfish.
• Anyone on regular heart or blood pressure medicine, or with liver or kidney disease.
• Anyone due for surgery. Stop two weeks before and tell your surgeon.

What are the side effects?

Loose stools, stomach cramps or acidity can happen, mostly above the stated dose, because Tukhm Hanzal is a strong purgative. The sugar base can raise blood sugar. If you notice a rash, swelling, vomiting or any other odd reaction, stop the majun and see a doctor. Tell us as well.

How do you check that a jar is genuine?

Look at the licence number, batch number and seal on your jar before you open it. Our genuine-store guide walks through each check, and you can consult our experts before you order.
