Valerian Root and roots

The medication I wish to post on is not listed. I know that Valerian root is in the pill, as well as a few other roots and melatonin.

Last night I took SleepMD for the 1st time. Within 15 minutes of taking the pill, I started feeling funny. I became very night leaded and my swallowing became difficult. After about 15 more minutes of trying to calm down, my breathing became difficult, and my throat felt more think inside. I started shaking uncontrollably as well. My roommate called 911, my vitals were a little high, but I was getting 100% oxygen. They took me to the hospital, where I received IV meds and breathing treatments to help.

I'm a nurse, and I know that the worst reactions come the second time you take/ingest something. The doc told me to stay away, stick with benadryl. I basically had a mild anaplylactic reaction, which would go full blow next time if I took it again.

If it works for you guys, awesome! But just be careful.
