Frequently Asked Questions
Will this make me drowsy during the day?
While it is used for relaxation, some users may experience drowsiness. It is important to exercise caution if you are operating heavy machinery, driving, or involved in activities requiring high mental alertness until you know how the tincture affects you.
Can I take this with other sleep medications?
It is advised to avoid taking California Poppy with alcohol or other products that cause drowsiness or have analgesic (pain-relieving) properties, as it may enhance those effects.
How is it different from the Opium Poppy?
Despite the name, California Poppy is a different genus (Eschscholzia) and does not contain the same potent opiate alkaloids as the opium poppy (Papaver somniferum). It is considered a much gentler and safer nervine.
Cautions
