Lavancap (Lavender Oil)

Lavancap, containing lavender oil, is used primarily for general wellness and aromatic support.

• Stress relief: helps promote a calming effect that may reduce perceived stress levels.
• Sleep support: may aid in falling asleep and improving sleep quality when taken before bedtime.
• Mild anxiety: can provide a soothing sensation that may lessen mild anxiety symptoms.
• Digestive comfort: may help alleviate occasional gastrointestinal discomfort associated with stress.

• Lavender oil is rich in linalool and linalyl acetate, which are thought to modulate the central nervous system by enhancing GABA‑mediated neurotransmission and influencing serotonergic pathways. These actions can produce calming, anxiolytic, and mild sedative effects, contributing to its traditional use for stress and sleep support.

Lavancap may be associated with a range of adverse reactions, most of which are mild and reversible.

Common Side Effects

• Mouth irritation: transient burning or tingling sensation in the oral cavity.
• Nausea: mild upset stomach occurring shortly after ingestion.
• Headache: occasional mild headache not requiring medical intervention.
• Drowsiness: increased sleepiness, especially at higher doses.
• Allergic skin reaction: localized rash or itching after contact.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

• Anaphylaxis: severe allergic reaction with breathing difficulty and swelling.
• Liver enzyme elevation: abnormal liver function tests in susceptible individuals.
• Respiratory depression: marked slowing of breathing, rarely reported.
• Severe dermatitis: extensive skin inflammation following systemic exposure.
