SwansonChinese Skullcap - Herbal Supplement Promoting Relaxation & Sleep Support - Flavonoid Formula to Help Soothe Nerves - (90 Capsules, 400mg Each)

Recommended by my neurologist as a natural sleep aid. You wake up feeling refreshed and not groggy like with prescription sleep meds. Directions say take two but I only take one when I can’t get to sleep and it is the perfect amount for me and I weigh 140 if that helps.

It’s good, it does help with neck pain.

Works for what I needed it to-chickens.

Out of all the herbal supplements that I've tried that had potential to elevate GABA levels, this one was one of the candidates that I perceived to have a perceptible effect on anxiety, although not as effective as standardized Lemon Balm, Valerian, or Honokiol. It is a 4:1 ratio extract so it's better than some of the other Chinese (Baikal) Skullcap (scutellaria baicalensis) extracts out there. If a product doesn't advertise a ratio then it is almost certainly a 1:1 or non-concentrated extract which means you'll have to swallow a lot of capsules to get any benefit. With this 4:1 formulation, I take two capsules in the morning with lemon balm, honokiol, and chamomile and one at night with lemon balm, honokiol, chamomile, valerian, and melatonin.

No side effects, but did not help me sleep. Everyone is different. Might work for you.

Takes the edge of trigeminal nerve pain. Life saver. Also calming. Has a host of benefits, if you do a pubmed search. If I recall correctly, it supports progesterone, as well, which might explain the calming effect, at least in part. Please note: You can buy this on the Swanson site for 1/ 2 the $, with 2-5 day free shipping.

Just what I needed to curb my morning stress. I take it at night, sleep well and wake up with no morning anxiety.
