| SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on April 12, 2002, under the laws of the State of Nevada. From incorporation until March 3, 2006, the Company was an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. On February 17, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with Hadasit Medical Services and Development Ltd ("Hadasit") to acquire the provisional patent related to orally ingestible insulin capsule to be used for the treatment of individuals with diabetes. In subsequent periods, the Company entered into additional development agreements with Hadasit, the most recent of which was signed on September 11, 2011, see also note 2a. On March 11, 2011, the Company was reincorporated from the State of Nevada to the State of Delaware. On May 14, 2007, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary in Israel, Oramed Ltd., which is engaged in research and development. Unless the context indicates otherwise, the term "Group" refers to Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc. and its Israeli subsidiary, Oramed Ltd. (the "Subsidiary"), (together with the Company, "the Group"). In March 2011, the Subsidiary sold shares of its investee company, Entera Bio Ltd ("Entera") to D.N.A Biomedical Solutions Ltd ("D.N.A"), other than a 3% interest, which is accounted for as a cost method investment (amounting to $1,027 as of the end of the period). In consideration for the shares sold to D.N.A, the Company received a promissory note issued by D.N.A in the principal amount of $450,000, with an annual interest rate of 0.45%, that was paid in full in November 2011, and 8,404,667 ordinary shares of D.N.A, see also note 4. As part of this agreement, the Subsidiary entered into a patent transfer agreement according to which, the Subsidiary assigned to Entera all of its right, title and interest in and to the patent application that it has licensed to Entera since August 2010. Under this agreement, the Subsidiary is entitled to receive from Entera royalties of 3% of Entera's net revenues (as defined in the agreement) and a license back of that patent application for use in respect of diabetes and influenza. As of November 30, 2013, Entera had not yet realized any revenues and had not paid any royalties to the Subsidiary.
The Company has been in the development stage since its formation and has not yet generated any revenues from its operations. The Group is engaged in research and development in the biotechnology field and is considered a development stage company in accordance with the ASC Topic 915 "Development Stage Entities" due to the fact that it has not generated any revenues from its operations. Successful completion of the Company's development programs and its transition to normal operations is dependent upon obtaining necessary regulatory approvals from the FDA prior to selling its products within the United States, and foreign regulatory approvals must be obtained to sell its products internationally. There can be no assurance that the Company will receive regulatory approval of any of its product candidates, and a substantial amount of time may pass before the Company achieves a level of revenues adequate to support its operations, if at all. The Company also expects to incur substantial expenditures in connection with the regulatory approval process for each of its product candidates during their respective developmental periods. Obtaining marketing approval will be directly dependent on the Company's ability to implement the necessary regulatory steps required to obtain marketing approval in the United States and in other countries. The Company cannot predict the outcome of these activities. Based on its current cash resources and commitments as of November 30, 2013, the Company believes it will be able to maintain its current planned development activities and the corresponding level of expenditures for at least the next 12 months and beyond. If there are unexpected increases in general and administrative expenses or research and development expenses, the Company may need to seek additional financing during the next 12 months. See also note 6a, with respect to the Company's offering in December 2013.
On January 10, 2013, the Company's Board of Directors approved a reverse stock split at a ratio of one-for-twelve, effective January 22, 2013, which decreased the number of common shares issued and outstanding as of January 23, 2013, from approximately 86.5 million shares to approximately 7.2 million shares and the number of authorized common shares from 200 million shares to approximately 16.7 million shares. All share and per share amounts included in the consolidated financial statements have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the effects of the reverse stock split.
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2013-02"). This update requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, ASU 2013-02 requires presentation, either on the face of the income statement or in the notes, of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by respective line items of net income, but only if the amounts reclassified are required to be reclassified in their entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional details about these amounts. The amendments in ASU 2013-02 will be effective prospectively for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted ASU 2013-02 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2014. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 does not have any material effect on the consolidated financial statement presentation.
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013 (the "2013 Form 10-K"). These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and that are considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented. Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements have been omitted in this interim period report pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Because the condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements, they should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the 2013 Form 10-K. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of a full fiscal year's results. |

On April 28, 2013, the Subsidiary entered into a new lease agreement for its office facilities in Israel, which replaced the lease agreement from 2012. The new lease agreement is for a period of 36 months commencing November 4, 2013. The annual lease payment will be NIS 89,052 from 2014-2016, and will be linked to the increase in the Israeli consumer price index (as of November 30, 2013, the future annual lease payments under the new agreement will be $25,227, based on the exchange rate as of November 30, 2013). The lease expenses for the three month period ended November 30, 2013 were approximately $3,920. As security for its obligation under this lease agreement the Company provided a bank guarantee in an amount equal to three monthly lease payments.
The Subsidiary is committed to pay royalties to the Bio-Jerusalem fund on proceeds from future sales at a rate of 4% and up to 100% of the amount of the grant received by the Company (Israeli CPI linked) at the total amount of $65,053. As of November 30, 2013, the Subsidiary had not yet realized any revenues and did not incur any royalty liability. During the three month period ended November 30, 2013, the Company received no grants from the Bio-Jerusalem fund. For the period from inception on April 12, 2002 through November 30, 2013, the research and development expenses are presented net of Bio-Jerusalem grants, in the total amount of $65,053.
Under the terms of the Company's funding from the Israeli Government, royalties of 3%-3.5% are payable on sales of products developed from a project so funded, up to 100% of the amount of the grant received by the Company (dollar linked) with the addition of annual interest at a rate based on LIBOR. At the time the grants were received, successful development of the related projects was not assured. In case of failure of a project that was partly financed as above, the Company is not obligated to pay any such royalties. On November 30, 2013, the Subsidiary had not yet realized any revenues from the said project and did not incur any royalty liability. The total amount that was actually received through November 30, 2013 is $1,783,994. For the three month period ended November 30, 2013, the research and development expenses are presented net of OCS and Bio-Jerusalem fund grants, in the total amount of $66,457. |

| FAIR VALUE [Abstract] | ||||||||||
| FAIR VALUE | NOTE 3 - FAIR VALUE: Fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In order to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, the guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described as follows:
As of November 30, 2013 and August 31, 2013 the assets or liabilities measured at fair value were comprised of available for sale securities (level 1), see also note 4. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. As of November 30, 2013, the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, short term deposits, accounts receivable, other current assets and accounts payables and accrued expenses approximates their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of long-term deposits also approximates their carrying value, since they bear interest at rates close to the prevailing market rates. The amounts funded in respect of employee rights are stated at cash surrender value which approximates its fair value. In order to secure the fulfillment of the Company's obligations under credit cards, the Company has placed a restricted deposit with the bank in an amount of $16,000. The Company considers available evidence in evaluating potential impairments of its investments, including the duration and extent to which fair value is less than cost, and the Company's ability and intent to hold the investment. Realized gains and losses on sales of the securities are included in the consolidated statement of operations as financial income or expenses. |

The cost of the securities sold and the amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income into financial income (amounting to $18,454 during the three month period ended November 30, 2013), were determined by specific identification. The shares are traded on the TASE and have a quoted price. The fair value of those securities is measured at the quoted prices of the securities on the measurement date. As of November 30, 2013 and August 31, 2013 the available for sale securities are classified as level 1 as described in the table below:
Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of related tax recorded as a separate component of other comprehensive income in equity until realized.

The Group is engaged in research and development in the biotechnology field and is considered a development stage company in accordance with the ASC Topic 915 "Development Stage Entities" due to the fact that it has not generated any revenues from its operations. Successful completion of the Company's development programs and its transition to normal operations is dependent upon obtaining necessary regulatory approvals from the FDA prior to selling its products within the United States, and foreign regulatory approvals must be obtained to sell its products internationally. There can be no assurance that the Company will receive regulatory approval of any of its product candidates, and a substantial amount of time may pass before the Company achieves a level of revenues adequate to support its operations, if at all. The Company also expects to incur substantial expenditures in connection with the regulatory approval process for each of its product candidates during their respective developmental periods. Obtaining marketing approval will be directly dependent on the Company's ability to implement the necessary regulatory steps required to obtain marketing approval in the United States and in other countries. The Company cannot predict the outcome of these activities. Based on its current cash resources and commitments as of November 30, 2013, the Company believes it will be able to maintain its current planned development activities and the corresponding level of expenditures for at least the next 12 months and beyond. If there are unexpected increases in general and administrative expenses or research and development expenses, the Company may need to seek additional financing during the next 12 months. See also note 6a, with respect to the Company's offering in December 2013.
On January 10, 2013, the Company's Board of Directors approved a reverse stock split at a ratio of one-for-twelve, effective January 22, 2013, which decreased the number of common shares issued and outstanding as of January 23, 2013, from approximately 86.5 million shares to approximately 7.2 million shares and the number of authorized common shares from 200 million shares to approximately 16.7 million shares. All share and per share amounts included in the consolidated financial statements have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the effects of the reverse stock split. |

| Newly issued and recently adopted Accounting Pronouncements |
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2013-02"). This update requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, ASU 2013-02 requires presentation, either on the face of the income statement or in the notes, of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by respective line items of net income, but only if the amounts reclassified are required to be reclassified in their entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional details about these amounts. The amendments in ASU 2013-02 will be effective prospectively for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted ASU 2013-02 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2014. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 does not have any material effect on the consolidated financial statement presentation. |

| Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Preparation |
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013 (the "2013 Form 10-K"). These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and that are considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented. Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements have been omitted in this interim period report pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Because the condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements, they should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the 2013 Form 10-K. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of a full fiscal year's results. |
