Great brand
I already take their magnesium glycinate supplement and decided to try melatonin from them too. This works super well and helps with sleep.

helps my dog’s sundowners symptoms!
my vet recommended 3 mg melatonin to help with my 30# senior dog’s “sundowners” symptoms. she was asking to go outside many many times within a short time at night once we were getting ready for be. she’d go out without any bathroom use. she’d just go out and walk around and return, then seconds later ask to go out again… and again… and again. this has helped tremendously without any negative consequences or reactions to the supplement.i chose this one because of the limited ingredients. i just open the capsule and sprinkle into her food a couple of hours before bedtime.now instead of asking to go out 33 times in 30 minutes, she only asks a couple of times!with the dr’s approval i increased to 4.5 mgs/pm. i started at 3mg and it was a huge improvement. at 4.5 mgs it has made her requests to go out only a couple of times, if that. poor sweet baby. i’m very happy that this has helped reduce what was triggering that behavior, anxiety, cognitive decline, decreased melatonin…

The promise of a good night’s rest is valuable
My client swears by these. They are of a low dosage and safe for him to be in charge of, therefore increasing his feeling of being in charge of his personal care. This is very important in home care and sometimes difficult to implement. So many day to day tasks require dispensing and restraint. This is not a freely given in vast quantities medication by any means. But more an easy going, inspires relaxation, user friendly sleep aid. I know nothing of its vitamin content. I like the ease of use and the peace it brings him being responsible for himself and the promise of a good night’s sleep is priceless.

CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR
Left 5 stars because it definitely WORKED— a little too potent for me. This medication seems to have caused either an interaction with my underlying medical condition or with one of the medications I am taking, or with both. I felt extremely sedated and heavy all day, also I usually take my blood pressure daily and it was 100/50 instead of my usual 135/65. Very scary honestly. I don’t have enough expertise on the dose strengths and possible contraindications of melatonin to make any kind of advisement, but please check with your doctor before using.

It’s strong enough even with 3mg, another option is 10mg
I using it for a week already. Even with the small amount of 3mg its strong enough and works for me very well. Going to take it every night on routine schedule, it should work even better!

A great product that works very well and has no harsh chemicals
I have been taking this product for close to 2 months now and have seen terrific results. It is typically hard for me to fall asleep at night(I am naturally active at night, both mentally and physically).But after having taken this product, the results were immediate. I took one capsule an hour before my bedtime and felt sleepy within half an hour. Not only did I feel sleepy more quickly, but I had a much deeper sleep and did not wake up after 2-3 hours(I was able to sleep 4-5 hours before waking up).There are no harsh chemicals and is gentle on your system(I have not experienced any negative side-effects whatsoever). I do vary my dosage once in awhile. Sometimes I take a second capsule in the middle of the night once I have woken up(this helps me to fall asleep again more quickly).The recommeded dosage is one capsule before bedtime(I do not recommend going above the suggested dosage unless you have advice from a Health Practitioner or you know your own body very well). Overall great product for those who want something gentle to help them fall asleep(and have a deep sleep).

I’ve been using this product for 5+ years every evening before going to sleep and it works perfect. Amazon also offers a very good pricing for these and it’s worth every penny. If you want to have more control on when you get to sleep, this is what you need.

Melatonin hormone really helps for sleep. Its safe, healthy too and makes your bio clock in balance. It strengthens other neural circuitry of the brain too. As we age this hormone is less produced + Blue light and bright white light also decreased the melatonin level in the blood. So follow good sleep hygiene. NO TV when going to bed or working on laptop, yeah avoid caffeine before going to bed (no caffeine after 2 pm)…. However Red light + darkness increases the production naturally. intelligent and moderated Exercise helps but not vigorous exercise before bed.Most useful for frequent travellers to get rid of jet lag.3mg is a big dose. Do not overdose. Please note Melatonin is sold in prescriptions in India and not Over the counter, so not sure about this info. Take a good docs advice before supplements mania starts :)NOW foods is pretty good company, economical and the absorption rate is v good.Follow doc advice on how to use it….It definitely initiates sleep, but not sure about the sustenance, everyone is unique so is every type of problem –Doctor is the best adviserFOund nowfood melatonin v good. But in india melatonin requires doc prescription I guess, so not sure if its legal to buy over the counter.

Now Foods’ Melatonin is quite effective. It’s definitely a value for money product.

Wish Now Foods had gone for “Time Release” version of melatonin..This product indeeds knocks me out in a couple of minutes but its effect soon wears out after 3-4 hours due to which I had to wake up in the middle of night & had to again consume another capsule for full 8 hours satisfactory sleep..I have tried breaking the capsule into half & consuming it half the content..ie-1.5mg but it doesnt seems so effective as original 3mg capsule;atleast for my case..Nevertheless I wont start netpicking now..Overall satisfied by the product..It ended my frustating delayed sleep phase syndrome & my carcidian disorder..Before this, I was consuming ” 0.5 – 1mg Etizolam” for sleep & this came as God send product for me..Thank you Now Foods!& one last word of caution- Melatonin significantly decreases Sperm Count & Mobility in Males if taken for more than 2 months & can drastically reduce the the chance of conceiving if you are trying to do so!! You can check it out on internet..A recent US Study had confirmed this..Although Melatonin is natural,its not intended for long term use..Melatonin can have serious side effects for young men..Melatonin is more suitable for people of age>50 years since at that age body’s natural melatonin production begins to deplete so exercise some caution..You can try “Doctor’s Best High Absorption Magnesium” for sleep disorder as an alternative to Melatonin for long term use..Its completely safe without any side effects & healthy too..Thank you!
