Time Release Melatonin Sleep 3mg Gummies
Natrol
Overview
This product delivers 3mg of Melatonin, which is an effective dose for supporting sleep onset and regulation of sleep-wake cycles, particularly for occasional sleeplessness. While some research suggests lower doses (0.3-0.5mg) can be effective, 3mg is a widely used and generally effective amount. The 'Time Release' aspect, if effective, could also aid in sleep maintenance.
