A post treatment visit will be done 2 weeks for safety evaluation.
Primary outcome: Hamilton anxiety (HAM-A) scale Secondary outcome: Insomnia quality index, Global clinical impression and patients global evaluation scales.

In this research, characterized as a randomized, double-blind, parallel study, 200 healthy volunteered patients aging 18 or older will be distributed into 4 groups (n=50) as follows: Group I - 500mg Erythrina mulungu; Group II - placebo; Group III ; 100 mg Passiflora incarnata; Group IV - 15 mg midazolam. All treatments will be administered p.o. 1 hour randomly prior to the surgical procedures. The level of anxiety will be assessed through questionnaires and physical parameters, such as blood pressure, heart rate and oxygen concentration in three periods: at baseline, right before the surgical procedures and after 7 days. Data will be collected, tabulated and analyzed by the following statistical tests: chi-square, t-test, ANOVA and Tukey test, Friedman, Fisher's exact test with significance level of 5%.

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of the drug Passiflorine® (Passiflora incarnata L; Crataegus Oxyacantha L and Salix alba L) compared to Valeriana officinalis over a period of four weeks.
The improvement of anxiety disorders parameters (primary outcome) will be measured by the score of the Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAM-A).
Does the administration of 2 tablets a day over a period of four weeks vs. Valeriana officinalis lead to an improvement in anxiety disorders?

The purpose of the Phase II clinical trial will be to see if a botanical extract from the plant Passiflora incarnata can improve seizure control and reduce anxiety in patients diagnosed with partial epilepsy.
The investigators will randomize approximately 25 participants with partial epilepsy for this placebo controlled, double blind, and crossover study. All patients will be scheduled for 10 clinic visits and four telephone visits during the 32-week period of the trial. After enrollment into the study, all participants will begin a 9-week observation phase, which serves as an individual baseline control. After 9 weeks participants will be randomized to receive either study drug or placebo for an 11 week study period. After completion of the 11 week study period, patients will crossover to the other study drug/placebo arm for another 11 weeks. Epilepsy participants will continue taking their anti-epileptic medication as currently prescribed. The investigators will find participants through the OHSU clinics, by notifying local neurologists, anthroposophical and naturopathic practices, and by advertising the study via the local chapter of the American Epilepsy Society.
Routine blood tests, physical examinations and tests to monitor heart, brain and muscle activities will screen for any adverse effects. The primary outcome measure will be seizure frequency through seizure diaries. Attention and performance tests, neurological and quality of life questionnaires will be completed to assess the secondary outcome measures of anxiety, cognitive function and quality of life.
