Nice work, NOW Foods.
Trying to avoid any prescription sleep medication, I had found melatonin to be somewhat helpful over the years. I did research and realized that adding some B-6 to my dose at night REALLY helped how I felt in the morning. B-6 helps progesterone levels (via lowering prolactin) while melatonin can lower progesterone (via raising prolactin), and it made a huge difference to mitigate that progesterone-lowering effect of melatonin.Continuing my search, I saw this melatonin supplement that included B-6 and ALSO had a two-stage release. (Way to go NOW Foods on the B-6- why doesn’t anyone else talk about adding B-6 to melatonin to mitigate the progesterone-lowering effects? All we hear about is how we need progesterone.) I figured the two-stage release could only help…boy, did it. I usually wake at about 4am and have trouble getting back to sleep and this took care of that problem.But, this also has a form of niacin (Vitamin B-3), and I am not sure how much that is also creating the success I am experiencing. I just have to be careful of how much I take, because it has quite a bit of the B-3 in it. I like to take two pills, but that does take me pretty far over an RDA for B-3.It also has magnesium which I have regularly seen as helpful to take with melatonin and have always done so.I find this pretty amazing stuff and I am a tough customer as far as sleep aids. The most amazing thing is that I can have a busy evening and take this and sleep well- I have not found much to help when my system has not had time to settle down for long before bed.Note that the B-3 component does raise histamine according to what I read, but taking a quercetin/bromelain supplement can take care of that in the morning if I feel allergies. This is a very, very small price to me after so much struggle finding ways to get a good night’s sleep.

this is a perfect co-factor of nutrients
I’m guessing I had deficiency in vitamin b6 or my body cannot process the vitamin b3 niacin(the flush form) properly or my body has trouble converting tryptophan to melatonin and niacin, because oddly the ringing in my ear(Tinnitus) has stopped and I’m able to sleep.

Quality vegetarian products
Generally speaking, I enjoy Now brandmelatonin because it’s vegetarian based and it works. I’m using both the 1 mg and the 5 mg sustained release .

Great, consistent, sleep aid arrived at after testing many others
These are consistent, standardized, one mg tablets, that I cut in half for a good night’s sleep. I have had a terrible time finding a brand of Melatonin that I like that provides a standard reliable induction of sleep. This brand does what I need. The dosage I use is one-half of a tablet, most nights. That helps me manage consistent sleep time every night. Otherwise, I often stay awake far into the night, or sleep 12 hours, when I need to be awake, because I haven’t had enough sleep for several nights. The rating is four stars instead of five only because a 1 mg tablet is too much, while 1/2 tablet is just right, but requires some effort.

Don’t get any weird dreams
I really like the “Now” brand. The melatonin works really well for me. In addition, I don’t get weird dreams like I do with other brands

🙁
After YEARS of not being able to get a good nights sleep (thank you middle age). My doctor recommended melatonin. I poo-poo’d the recommendation on the basis that I had tried it years ago and it didn’t work but I was desperate so I thought I would give it a try. I purchased 1mg melatonin from Wally World about 6 months ago and LOVED it!I’m able to get a good 6-8 hours of sleep and I don’t feel drowsy the next day. I also don’t feel drugged. I just fall to sleep like I used to. No wrestling the mind monsters for hours on end…just drift off to sleep.I was visiting my mom on vacation and she was commenting on her crappy sleep so I suggested she take some of my melatonin. She didn’t want to because she said it made her sleepy the next day. I’m assuming she was taking a higher dose (1mg is very hard to find in the stores, in stores I usually see 3mg and 5mg) and that is why she had that yuck feeling the next day. I made her take one and she also LOVES the 1mg!When I was getting low I went back to Wally’s and couldn’t find it. I also couldn’t find it at 2 grocery stores or Target so I came here to order this NOW brand.This does not work as well as the cheaper 1mg I found at Wally World 🙁

This works for me. I don’t wake up with grogginess unlike other similar products out there in the market. Give it one to two hours for it work. I am quite satisfied with this product.

It helps fall asleep faster but awakes you after 2,3 hours.
