Pregnancy, Breastfeeding & Children

Breastfeeding

Likely Safe

Widely used traditionally to calm both nursing parent and colicky infant via the parent's tea; considered compatible with breastfeeding in normal amounts.

Children

Likely Safe

One of the most commonly used calming herbs for children in traditional practice, including for sleep and mild digestive upset, in diluted tea form.

Interactions & contraindications

Sedatives, thyroid medication

Additive sedative effect; may interact with thyroid hormone regulation at high doses.
