Scientific Summary

Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) is a perennial herb whose dried root is most commonly used. It is taken mainly as a sedative and sleep aid, and it also helps to relax smooth muscle and calm mild anxiety. Because it can cause pronounced drowsiness, it should not be combined with alcohol or other central‑nervous‑system depressants, and it is generally not recommended for pregnant or nursing women or for people with liver or kidney problems.
