Does stevia have corn?
Stevia powder in the packets, such as in coffee shops, contains dextrose, which is a powder derived from corn.
Is Stevia with dextrose the same as plain Stevia?
No. Stevia with Dextrose includes Dextrose whereas, plain, pure Stevia should have only Stevia Rebaudiana Bertoni. Now, most Stevia powders have fillers to help with packaging ie. Erythritol and Xylitol, both of which are natural . Watch the ingredients in the brand of Stevia you choose and make sure you know what the fillers are and what percentage of Stevia is in the product. Some may have a lower percentage of Stevia, a higher percentage of filler, as well as unsafe fillers. Stevita Stevia has 95-98 percent of Stevia in their products. See the related link for further information.

A lot are being sold in the stores now but just be cautious. You may want to look into Stevita brand Stevia.

Why is silica added to stevia?
Silica (just sand, really) is usually found in little packets packed along with new products to absorb moisture, keeping the pruduct dry. These packets usually have a label on them that say something like "don't consume." Well, some brands of stevia sweetener put the silica granules right in with the sweetener so that the sweetener components don't pick up moisture and get lumpy. That way it pours easily. But, there is no warning about consuming the silica. Presumably the FDA feels this is ok, but I'm not sure I like the idea of consuming sand. Some stevia brands don't have the silica.
