Scullcap (also spelled "Skullcap") has traditionally been used internally for nervousness and convulsions, irritability, sleeplessness, and stress. Scullcap may act as a relaxant and may possess anti-toxic effects. Scullcap is an excellent tonic for the nervous system. It is good for treating stress, sleeplessness, and nervousness. Scullcap is considered by some to be a natural alternative to the sometimes-beneficial, yet chemical, effects of Methadone treatment during withdrawal from drug addictions, especially opiates, tranquilizers and barbiturates. Scullcap may be an herb of choice for drug or alcohol-dependent people while undergoing a program to remove the addiction. Indigenous to North America, scullcap is very abundant throughout the land, growing in damp places, ditches, meadows and by the sides of ponds, from Connecticut, south to Florida and Texas. Scullcap is used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat a variety of conditions. The flavonoid components of scullcap are thought responsible for its activity, although as so often happens, scientists are just not sure where scullcap derives its benefits from.
