Recommended as a remedy for nervous tension, anxiety and insomnia, because it improves circulation and acts as a sedative. It reduces the mucous from colds. Valerian is also used for fatigue, high blood pressure, irritable bowel syndrome, menstrual and muscle cramps, spasms, pain, stress related heart problems and ulcers. This herb contains acetic acid, butyric acid, camphene, chatinine, essential oils, formic acid, glycosides, pinene, magnesium, potassium, copper, valeric acid and valerine.
Valerian should not be used for more than 2 to 3 weeks at a time, as it may then be harmful or become addictive. Large doses or extended use may produce symptoms of poisoning. In extremely high doses, it may cause paralysis and a weakening of the heart. Take the tea twice daily, for no more than 2-3 weeks at a time without a break, as continual use or high doses may lead to headaches and palpitations. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Use under medical supervision.
Valerian enhances the action of sleep-inducing drugs, so avoid if taking this type of medication. Do not confuse with the garden plant, red "American" valerian (Centranthus ruber) which has no medicinal properties.
