Valerian is used for insomnia and other disorders.
In the United States Valerian is sold as a nutritional supplement.
Therapeutic use has increased as dietary supplements have gained in
popularity, especially after the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act
was passed in 1999. This law allowed the distribution of many agents as
over-the-counter supplements, and therefore allowed them to bypass the
regulatory requirements of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
"Valerian" is used against sleeping disorders,
restlessness and anxiety. Valerian seems only to work when taken over longer
periods (several weeks). Some studies have demonstrated that valerian
extracts interact with the GABA and benzodiazepine receptors. Valerian is
also used traditionally to treat gastrointestinal pain and spastic colitis.
Long term safety studies are missing. As valepotriates may be potential
mutagens, valerian should only be used after consultation with a physician.

Valerian medication is sometimes recommended as first line
when benefit-risk relation requires so. Valerian is often indicated as
transition medication during discontinuation processes involving bromazepan,
clonazepam and diazepam, among others.
Valerian has uses in herbal medicine as a sedative. The main
current use of valerian is as a remedy for insomnia, with a recent meta-analysis
providing some evidence of effectiveness. It has been recommended for epilepsy
but that is not supported by research. Large doses are known to cause withdrawal
symptoms when stopped, as it, as well as most all sleep aids, may result in
dependency.
While shown to be an effective remedy for the reduction of
anxiety, it has also been reported to cause headaches and night terrors in some
individuals. This is due to the fact that some people lack a digestive
conversion property necessary to effectively break down Valerian. In these
individuals, Valerian can cause agitation.[8] One study found that valerian
tends to sedate the agitated person and stimulate the fatigued person, bringing
about a balancing effect on the system.
