Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) is one of the most extensively researched herbal sleep supplements. The European Medicines Agency (EMA) has approved its traditional use for mild anxiety and sleep disturbance based on long-established use.

Valerenic acid, the active compound, may inhibit GABA reuptake and interact with adenosine receptors — mechanisms overlapping with conventional sleep medication but via a gentler pathway.

  • Mild anxiety
  • Relaxation

    Off the sleep meds finally

    GP was reluctant to keep prescribing zopiclone long-term. Suggested trying valerian + sleep hygiene. After 4 weeks the valerian is providing the same sleep onset benefit without the drugged feeling. Staying on this long-term.

    Natural GABA support — works

    Insomnia linked to anxiety and racing thoughts. Valerian root acts on GABA receptors similarly to benzodiazepines but without the dependency risk. My GP supported trying this first. After 3 weeks: falling asleep faster, fewer night wakings.

  • ★★★★☆Marie S.Verified buyer
    23/10/2025
    Consistent, gentle sleep aid

    Not a knockout drug — valerian gently encourages sleep without sedation. Takes 2-3 weeks to build up in the system. Now sleeping well consistently without the rebound insomnia I got from melatonin. Good quality capsules.

  • ★★★★★Paul D.
    31/08/2025
    Anxiety and sleep together

    The GABA mechanism helps both sleep and anxiety. I use valerian for both purposes. Evening dose reduces anxiety and improves sleep quality. Non-addictive, no hangover effect. Proper dose at 450mg.

  • ★★★☆☆Jennifer W.
    30/08/2025
    Works slowly but worth it

    First 2 weeks I noticed nothing. By week 3 falling asleep faster. By week 6 consistently sleeping through. The effect built up gradually rather than immediately. Good for those who need a slow, gentle approach.
