Hello and thanks for your query.

I shall make an effort to provide you with good professional recommendations specific to your questions.
No major side effects have been reported with passion flower in the medical journal. It is safe when taken short-term (less than two months).

Passionflower can cause some side effects such as dizziness, confusion, irregular muscle action and coordination, altered consciousness, etc.

Yet again, I duly appreciate your query to me, I do hope that you have found something useful to help you and I shall be glad to answer any further apprehensions.

Sincerely,
I find this answer helpful
