If you're taking medications, especially anti-depressants, it might be. It's not for pregnant women.
Passionflower is used as an alternative medicine in the treatment of insomnia, nervous tension, irritability, neuralgia, irritable bowel syndrome, premenstrual tension and vaginal discharges. An infusion of the plant depresses the motor nerves of the spinal cord. The infusion is also sedative, slightly reduces blood pressure and increases respiratory rate.
