What Are Rescue Remedy For Sleep Side Effects?

Brief Answer: Alternative medicine, lack of scientific study Detailed Answer: Rescue Remedy is a type of Bach Flower Remedy, a brand of flower essences created by English physician XXXXXXX Bach. Very few scientific studies have looked at the product's ability to reduce stress or provide any other health benefit. The few available studies seem to show that it really has no effect different from a placebo. In a 2007 study, researchers randomized 111 nursing students to Rescue Remedy or placebo after leading them to believe that they had to take a surprise test. Study results showed that Rescue Remedy did not significantly differ from the placebo treatment in terms of its anxiety-reducing effects. In another trial, from 1999, researchers randomized 100 students to at least one week of treatment with Rescue Remedy or a placebo. Once again, the study did not detect any difference in efficacy between Rescue Remedy and placebo in the treatment of test-related anxiety. So is it safe? Especially for kids? Although Rescue Remedy is generally considered safe, people taking certain medications (such as metronidazole or disulfiram) may experience nausea and/or vomiting because of the alcohol-based form of any flower essence. There is NO data showing that this is either safe for kids or not. It has never been studied in that kind of trial. So, I would suggest that if this insomnia lasts much longer, tell your grandchild to take her child to the pediatrician to rule out anything that may be keeping the baby awake, eg indigestion etc. I hope this helps. If you need any more information. I will do my best to help. Thanks for coming to HealthCareMagic.com
