User Reviews for melatonin

this works very very well for me. i ues Enlytgen- melatonin.

I feel like I have a new lease on life -- taking Melatonin 3 mg TR. My sleep is restorative with 7 - 9 hours a night. Used to struggle with early awakening. Only concern is mild depressed mood after several days -- so skipped a day and that improved. Looking for 1mg Timed Release as that is what has been used in research. Hoping that will solve the slight mood issue. All in all a very positive experience.

While I didnt take melatonin SOLELY for nicotine withdrawl, I took Chantix....I found melatonin effective for sleep.....seemed that Chantix kept me from sleeping, esp that first 2 weeks..

i am not sure if melatonin is giving me hand tremors. yhey seem to be worse after i started taking i.

Had non 24-hour sleep-wake disorder for twenty years. I take 3mg of melatonin approximately mid-day to advance my sleep phase. The timing needs to be precise in relationship to my internal body clock, which is not always easy to know. If I wake after an hour of heavy dream sleep, my waking time is a reliable marker and I will take melatonin eight hours later. If I hit the right timing window, I'll have fairly strong fatigue within an hour. This lasts for a couple of hours. I can't do certain kinds of work in this state, but I can do housework and listen to lectures. I call it my stupid pill, but it doesn't actually make me stupid, but impairs my ability to generate outward focus. Missing my window even once can make it hard to recover the required timing accuracy. The difference is profound. I can tell I miss the window because I have far less fatigue. Taking coffee at the same time as the melatonin significantly reduces fatigue, but it also made the treatment less reliable. Used to have an "all nighter" without fail at least once every three weeks for twenty years. In my first year on melatonin, I lost control only three times and had to flip over. Variability in the potency messed me up on one of those. One vendor didn't work at all. Another vendor works well most of the time, but some bottles aren't all there. Think I get mild stomach irritation at night, nothing really to complain about, and it could be other things in the pill. My life is spectacularly better since I discover this, having found the research myself. Would love to find a 100% consistent formulation. Read More Read Less

I just started taking melatonin for a small sleeping disorder, my mom has it really bad and i think i inherited it! Well the vitamin is 5mg and so far it works but i do wake up with sweats more than usual and a slight headache, i'm trying to solve my issue as natural as possible b/c i don't want to take the other prescribe or chemical stuff that causes other issues!

helps relax in addition to benadryl to fall asleep faster & stay asleep longer

I was having no luck with Ambien or Trazadone anymore, so decided to try Melantonin - 3 mg. It worked the first night and for the past week. Just hope it continues. What a blessing!

Using melatonin has supported my 7 to 8 hours of sleep every time i use it.

When I was 15/16 years old I began to have real problems sleeping but I did not want to become dependent on a prescription sleep aid. My doctor suggested that I try Melatonin and it worked wonders. I take one pill a half hour before bed and I have no problems falling asleep. I've been using it for about 2 years and the only side effect I've noticed is that sometimes I have very vivid dreams. Before I started the treatment I rarely remembered my dreams but now often I can in great detail.

when all else fails this works. it's better than over the counter sleep medicine for me. i still don't sleep like i need to though. you're limited to 3 mg. i don't go over that amount for fear of a bad reaction. my body doesn't react to much of any types of medication anymore and it does to this.

Under 16 age limit. Pediatrician recommended it. I was not sleeping through the night. I now am. Have been using it for a week & a half. Since starting, have had red bumps like mosquito bites show up on my stomach, and vivid nightmares. I have had allergic reactions to many other medications, but I love sleeping through the night

am using this to help with sleep issues due to fibromyalgia. After 3 nights of between 1-3mg I'm noticing dizziness during the day, sinus headaches, and bad dreams. i was trying to go off nortryptiline, but I don't think so now.
