I have been using this specific brand of melatonin for years now, occasionally. What most people don't understand is that in order for it to work, you must:
1) Take it at the right time, approximately 30 to 45 minutes before sleep.
2) After taking it, turn off all lights and screens in the house and do something that relaxes you (reading, taking a warm bath, having sex, etc.).
3) Melatonin is not a substance that helps if you take it once. What it does is regulate the biological clock and melatonin production, so it should be taken therapeutically for at least 10 days. When you feel that your cycle has been regulated, you can stop taking it.
4) The treatment requires commitment to work. It requires a consistent sleep schedule and duration, and avoiding coffee consumption (if you wake up after using melatonin and feel drowsy, expose yourself to sunlight or watch a video on a screen, as blue light removes it from the blood).

Sentence from a pharmacist, absolutely no effect.
It has not helped me at all with sleep.
Neither during - nor to fall asleep.

  Melatonin is a hormone that is essentially responsible for many things in the human body.

  Most people do not know this, as well as two other things: 1. If you take melatonin on an empty stomach, it will start to take effect in about 20-30 minutes on average, but not necessarily exclusively for sleep, meaning it will not necessarily make you sleepy or directly induce sleep itself. Your body will use melatonin for other functions (as we said, it is a hormone with many uses in the body), and if you take more, it will simply be excreted in the usual way. And one last thing, but one of the most important things for many people, it "doesn't work" because usually they are exposed to sufficient light, which gives the brain the "command" that it doesn't need it to help with sleep. Therefore, for those who take it and want to see results, it is good to have little to no light in the sleeping area and to take melatonin. (Recommended light intensity is below 100 lumens).

  The maximum known dosage is 10mg, and the reason it is recommended between 1-3mg is to cover the partial deficiency in its production, but not completely, which is why it is considered a supplement.

  In higher doses, apart from the average, phenomena usually occur such as a similar feeling of fatigue as when we have sleep deprivation, especially when we wake up.

  The "near bedtime" one is probably 1+ hour before. With other similar supplements of 1-2mg of melatonin, I had much faster results than this one which is 3mg, and that's because it wasn't in pill form. The pill takes time to kick in and it's not practical at all for a symptom that is meant to be relieved quickly.

  Just finished the first pack and going for a second one. It does its job but for me it kicks in after 45 minutes to 1 hour, that's why I'm giving it 4 stars

  The product as a herbal supplement does not have the same effectiveness for everyone.
  My personal experience is as follows:
  - It helps me by following certain specific steps.
  - Take it one hour before lying down.
  - No mobile or computer screen after taking it.
  - If possible, prefer a book.
  - I take two capsules.

  Indeed, in cases of high anxiety or discomfort - tension, it does not work miracles,
  it may help in a sleepless situation where you cannot fall asleep.

  I think it's worth trying for someone who has the desire to create a daily "sleep program"
  and not just take it occasionally when they are very stressed to fall asleep.

  If you struggle with sleep, it's worth trying the first one

  While I have bought melatonin from another company before and I know that it helped me a lot, this particular one has not made any difference for me and I am already in the second week of use! Maybe it needs more time.. I will continue using it hoping for a difference in the next period.

  It is very effective, it helps you fall asleep and also sleep deeper.
  No bad mood or side effects, it is not addictive, but calming as well.
  It is also therapeutic in cases of anxiety, panic, etc. I fully recommend it to anyone suffering from these, as sleep is poor in these cases, and improving sleep is very therapeutic.
  I have seen it in practice, I took it for a while.
  I don't mean for someone to rely solely on this, but to take it as a supplement.
  As far as I know, someone can take 6mg, 9mg, or even 12mg, I took 3mg.
  I dissolved it in my mouth, it has no taste.

  It really does what it promises and I highly recommend it. I have been taking melatonin for 15 years and I have found salvation in it. I always have a good mood and feel rested. Additionally, I would like to respond to the comment that says it takes a while to take effect. It is good to take it one hour before we want to sleep and not at the last moment. It is much better to have a slow-acting substance in our body for this specific reason, rather than a sudden transition from wakefulness to sleep... It is not something urgent like, let's say, using a medication for an allergic reaction. In that case, it needs to take effect immediately, but on the contrary, the process of sleep should occur gradually and naturally in our body, not forcefully... That's why it is better to plan ahead... I recommend taking this pill at least one hour before the time you want to sleep... I have been using melatonin for many years and indeed, some take longer to take effect... However, I prefer them over others that act much faster...

  As someone who has struggled with sleep problems for quite some time, I decided to try the above supplement, which contains melatonin, a hormone known to help regulate sleep. I found that the capsules were convenient to take and did not have any unpleasant taste or aftertaste.

  Although the product helped me fall asleep faster on some nights, I did not notice any significant improvement in the overall quality of my sleep. It is important to note that the response of each individual's body to melatonin can vary greatly, so while it may work well for some, it may not be effective for others.

  I also learned that melatonin supplements should not be used as a long-term solution for sleep problems and should only be taken according to the instructions. While this specific sleep supplement may be worth trying for those seeking a natural sleep aid, it is important to keep in mind that the results may vary.

  I had a serious problem with sleep. I turned night into day and this program bothered me. However you look at it, only nighttime sleep is of good quality. My doctor told me that these types of supplements are for older ages, but I decided to give it a try.

  The only thing I changed in my daily routine is not sleeping in the afternoon, waking up when the alarm goes off, and doing something relaxing when I take a capsule. For the first time, I feel so good. I hope to continue like this. I even found the appetite and energy to do morning exercise because I am well-rested and don't wake up at 5 in the afternoon.

  I fall asleep much more easily and my dreams are usually more intense. Depending on the person, some suggest taking melatonin 6 hours before sleep, with a minimum of 1 hour before. I have been using them for a long time and they help. Because melatonin is a hormone and not an active substance in pharmaceutical treatment, do not expect it to send you to sleep if you are under intense stress or anxiety.

  It does a very good job with action 1 to 1.5 hours after taking it at night. I don't feel "heavy" sleep and it doesn't cause me headaches or weakness after waking up, and its effect fades relatively quickly.

  For now, it's pretty good. I get sleepy within 1-2 hours, without feeling "sick" like I did with another melatonin product. I usually take one before 11 pm, so I can be asleep by 1. I sleep pretty well.
  Update 10/10/23: One of the best sleep pills. I may wake up a few times, but I fall back asleep immediately.

  As a supplement/aid for nighttime sleep, it works and I have been using it occasionally for several years (over 5). It helps you to feel drowsy and fall asleep quickly (depending on the person, of course), but it doesn't knock you out completely. If something happens, you will be able to wake up. However, if you generally have low heart rates, it is good to consult with your doctor first and not sleep alone the first time you take it. And NEVER take more than one capsule.

  Excellent product that helps incredibly in falling asleep and maintaining it for several hours. It will not help you have deep sleep or not wake up earlier if there is a simultaneous stimulus that leads to interruption or cessation of sleep. For example, if you have acute pain in a part of your body when you press it during sleep, this specific product will not make you ignore it and continue sleeping. For me, it is a particularly commendable product that helps with what I described. And unlike Now's Valerian, which causes dizziness and not sleep induction, it works nicely and calmly, functioning without experiencing any unwanted side effects, in an unexpected time!
  --This is my personal opinion. Before taking any product - even natural ones - consult your doctor!--

  It made me sleep, that is true, but

  -The sleep is incredibly shallow
  -Increases depression/anxiety (for me)
  -Nerves during the day
  This is my own experience.

  Very good. I have already bought it 3-4 times and I won't change it. If you take it, you won't fall asleep and if you relax, it helps you sleep more easily and not wake up during the night.

  It does what it promises...
  It helps those who want to sleep...
  What do I mean..? If you take it and say you will stay awake until late... You will not feel sleepy, your eyes will not close...
  I like staying awake since I was little and I also have a rotating schedule and night shifts at work... So the habit is harmful...
  I have noticed a few times that I woke up with a slight headache at first.
  I will come back with a new comment as I usually do in my reviews.
  You take it about an hour before you go to sleep...
  you turn off your phone, computer, etc. and sleep comes more easily when you lie down...

  Verified purchase from Pure-Natural

  Chronic sleep issue. I toss and turn in bed for hours before falling asleep, regardless of tiredness. The sleep I get is light and constantly interrupted.
  This is the first product I have tried. I am almost finished with the first box. From the first day, I saw results. It helped me fall asleep when I wanted to, and the tossing and turning in bed for hours almost stopped until today. Even on some nights when I didn't take a capsule, sleep came at the right time, as if it had fixed my biological clock.
  However, it didn't help much with the issue of interruptions during sleep, except for the first 2-3 nights.

  After consuming the entire box, I am now able to evaluate it. Unfortunately, this particular product did not work for me, it was like I was not drinking anything. From the very first day, I started taking 2 pills and many times in my desperation I took 3, but unfortunately, it had no effect. I conclude that personally, I need a combination with valerian, as the previous formulations from other companies that I had tried had only 1mg of melatonin per capsule, but they worked quite satisfactorily in combination with valerian.

  Finally, I found a product that does what it promises. I take it about an hour before I go to sleep and it helps me a lot. I believe it helps people who suffer from chronic insomnia, not those who can't sleep because they drink 3-4 coffees a day or drink coffee, for example, at 8 in the evening. Generally, for those who have sleep issues and have suffered like me, to find something that helps them, I believe it's worth trying. Of course, every body reacts differently.

  I have been using it for 3 days now. Generally, I have a big issue with sleep, I don't sleep for more than 4 hours and I sleep very late. The first night it made me feel sleepy but not dramatically, the second night I slept earlier than usual and the third night even earlier. Overall, I see a daily improvement in my sleep and I want to believe that it will continue like this. It takes 1 to 2 hours to work depending on the situation you are in, and you have to be careful not to drink too much coffee and not to eat late and heavy, otherwise it doesn't make sense to take it. As for side effects, the second morning I had a slight headache and the third I felt a bit tired at work, but I believe it was because I woke up an hour and a half before my usual time. So, overall, I see that it gradually helps.

  It is not a sedative, for people with serious insomnia problems. It causes a slight dizziness just before sleep. You should take it (1 ampoule), at least one hour before lying down. The duration depends on you. A 5-hour sleep, easily, from my experience. Of course, "with Athena and a moving hand". In other words, close and turn off the light in the room where you sleep, relax, stop watching TV, internet, mobile phone a little before going to sleep!!! When you wake up, occasionally, you may have a headache for a while. Generally, in my opinion, it is quite good, it does not cause addiction or any other serious side effect

  I got it for my mother who has an issue not with falling asleep but waking up after 3 hours of sleep and then not being able to fall back asleep. She told me that now she wakes up again, but feeling slightly dizzy and then falls back asleep after a little while. She doesn't feel bad in the morning when she wakes up. So I think it helped her.. using it around 10 pm and waking up at 6 am is okay.
