Life Extension Melatonin 6 Hour Timed Release 3 mg - For Circadian Rhythm & Immune Function, Cellular and DNA Health - Sleep Supplement - Non-GMO, Gluten-Free - Vegetarian Tablets, 60 Count

I suffer from insomnia induced by anxiety, both in going to sleep and waking up in the middle of the night. This product hasn't cured my anxiety, but I have a lot more ease in going to sleep, but especially staying asleep for the whole night. When I take regular melatonin, I can get to sleep OK, but I find myself waking up at 2-4AM and not being able to fall back asleep. Now with this product, even if I wake up and use the restroom, I'm still sleepy enough when I go back to bed that I have little trouble falling back asleep.I have had few occurrences of "melatonin dreams", but that may be partly due to the fact that this is on the lower end of dosages.I can't believe I didn't search out extended release melatonin in the past. What was I doing for all those years?!

I purchased for my dog……suggested by Vet. (I found it was hard to find 3 mg/6 hour timed release, without other ingredients added) He has anxiety when it storms, fireworks, etc……trauma 🤦🏼‍♀️from life with me.🤷🏼‍♀️. Anyway, I put the correct amount into a small bit of cream cheese…. He thinks he has gone to heaven.

For a number of reasons, including that lovely little thing called pre-menopause, I have occasional bouts of insomnia and weekly difficulties getting to sleep and staying asleep. As I prefer natural remedies, my doctor suggested trying Melatonin to help.Not 100 percent sure the tablets are helping to induce sleep as I still struggle regularly to fall asleep at a reasonable time, but they do seem to help encourage a deeper, more restful sleep, which truly helps! The first few times I took the pills, I followed the recommended 30 to 60 minutes prior to bedtime recommendation but I noticed I woke up a little groggy. Partially as I am generally getting only 6 to 7 hours of sleep a night. I started taking them a little over an hour before bedtime and that has worked much better.Of course, I'm not a medical professional, so do be sure to consult your personal doctor prior to taking! This is just my experience. Overall, I think this is a fine product that does deliver some good results.

I always have these on hand in case I want to be sure I get a full nights sleep. It doesn't put me to sleep (I take "Natrol 5mg quick desolve tablests--strawberry" for that). But the Natrol wears off about 3am and I wake up and can't get back to sleep. If I take one of these as well, it keeps me asleep during the early morning hours. In fact, if I take it too late at night, it makes me a bit groggy when I wake up in the morning, so I prefer to take it earlier (like 9pm) so it wears off by 6am. Works for me.

I have bought melatonin 3 mg 6 hour time released to try to sleep better.It had good results. Everything that is stated below applies to life extension melatonin 3mg.The only diference is that I had or felt, in my case, slightly better results with the 5 mg.I am a tall and weight 242 pounds. Maybe due to my metabolism and weight, a higher dosage was more appropiate to me.I have just bought these sleep right 5 mg time released, andI think it could improve a little more my sleeping quality.The sensation in the morning is that sleeping could recharge more energy than before.I use pills for depression and have been having difficulty to sleep well. After these pills,I wake up feeling less tired and even if I wake during the night, I get back to sleep much faster than before. I do not have that sensation of having a hard time to get to sleep anymore. Maybe I still go to sleep with this feeling, but I can't remember me fighting to sleep as before after taking these pills. If you feel something close, I think it is worth to give a try. Price is reasonable, affordable. Don't expect to be totally renewed, but the improvement is measurable. This increase in health quality (daily basis)more than justify the use. Very good cost/benefit. I did not feel sleepy or so sleepy in the following morning as some related even if took them 1:00 AM.

Works well if you can choke it down, but it’s a hard to swallow pill.

I have struggled with insomnia for literally decades, and have resisted using melatonin because the 3 mg did **nothing** for me. A neuro NP told me that 10 mg would be fine to use and to make sure to get the extended release. I bought these originally for my mom, who didn't receive them (totally my fault, I forgot the apartment number) and ordered some to be sent to me so I could get them to her. After she said that they seemed to help her "a little", and knowing that her "a little" would probably be "amazing" for me, I ordered some for myself.I don't use it every night, figure my body is already struggling to produce sufficient melatonin, but once or twice a week I use it and get a solid 6 hours sleep. If I get the solid 6 hours, I don't have any residual sleepiness the next day. If for some reason my sleep still gets interrupted and I don't get a full 6 or more, I do have more than usual sleepiness, but overall, that has not been a problem.
