What is Skullcap Tincture?
Skullcap Tincture is an alcohol extract of Scutellaria lateriflora, American Skullcap, a small perennial in the mint family (Lamiaceae). The species name lateriflora, "side-flowering," refers to the blue tube-shaped flowers that emerge from one side of the flowering stem. It is distinct from Chinese Skullcap (Scutellaria baicalensis), which has different traditional uses.
About American Skullcap
American Skullcap grows along damp woodland edges across eastern North America. It was used by various Native peoples and was adopted into nineteenth-century Eclectic Western herbalism, where it became one of the more widely documented American herbs. Its recorded constituents include the flavonoids baicalin and scutellarin. This tincture is a 1:7 extract in a 45% alcohol solution.

Herb Stomp (Sandy) is BY FAR the best Herb and Kratom store I have ever been to. In my 2.5 years of using Kratom, I have never been to a place as helpful as this! The employees are so so helpful! Usually when buying Kratom, I’m met with grumpy head shop owners who seem to want me to either spend out of my budget, or…
Awesome, knowledgeable staff. Great selection and quality of herbs and ethnobotanicals. I also appreciate that testing is done for contaminants and potency on certain herbs.
