I've just bought some Ashwagandha yesterday whilst I was in a health food store. It's solgar brand standardised to 1.5% withanolides. There's around 400mg of ashwagandha so 45mg is active contents.

I was feeling panicky yesterday before I had bought the ashwaghanda so I took 2.5mg diazepam which I take quite infrequently. I don't notice much sedation from the diazepam at that dosage but it takes the edge off the anxiety. Later in the day around 4 or 5 hours later I took the Ashwaghanda and this must react with the diazepam and I felt like I had taken a larger dose of diazepam. I woke up this morning a little dizzy feeling but in general ok.

Since diazepam takes a while to get out of your system there's nothing conclusive so far. I have 60 capsules and I have seperated out 30 capsules so I can take a month's worth to judge the effect.
However 1.5% may not be large enough dose. I try and take the lowest effective dose that I can. I will report back later if this stuff is starting to have an effect.
