Valerian Root
Valerian is a traditional herbal sleep remedy that improves subjective experiences of sleep when taken nightly over one- to two-week periods, and it appears to be a safe sedative/hypnotic choice in patients with mild to moderate insomnia.

Valerian is also used in patients with mild anxiety, but the data supporting this indication are limited.

Inositol has been shown in very small studies to be helpful for depression and panic disorder.
