Wright (in Southern part) of China [Origin & Technology] Baikal or Chinese scullcap (Scutellaria baicalensis) is different from a related plant called American scullcap (Scutellaria laterifolia).

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) initiated a nationwide recall of all PC-SPES in 2002 because the capsules were found to contain varying amounts of prescription drugs. Other combination formulas containing Baikal scullcap are used in Asian medicine to improve impaired brain function and to treat headaches.

It is also antifungal, particularly for Candida, and it also seems to have antiviral properties; including possible effectiveness against HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. In animal studies, Baikal scullcap also has shown some effectiveness against diabetes and high blood pressure, but none of these effects has been studied in humans.

As a result, sugars are absorbed more slowly and blood sugar levels do not fluctuate as much. Potentially hypoglycemia (blood sugar that is too low) could occur. Symptoms of low blood sugar may include shakiness, sweating, confusion, distorted speech, and loss of muscle control. If not corrected, low blood sugar can lead to unconsciousness and even death.
