What is Melatonin used for?

Our Melatonin 3mg film-coated tablets are licenced specifically for short-term, jet lag-related insomnia in adults aged 18 or older.

Jet lag commonly occurs when travelling across several time zones in an easterly direction. The difference in time between your departure and arrival locations can disturb your sleep, digestion and thinking processes. It can also cause you to feel sleepy during the day or struggle to fall sleep at night.

What is Melatonin?

Melatonin is a naturally occurring hormone that helps control how and when you sleep. Generally, the level of Melatonin in your body automatically rises at night (after it gets dark) and then returns to lower levels during the day.

Like any naturally occurring hormone, Melatonin production can be affected by a range of short-term lifestyle factors.

What does Melatonin do?

Taking Melatonin adds to your body’s natural supply, and it can help you fall asleep faster. It can reduce the impact of jet leg-related insomnia by up to a day and help your sleep get back into a regular rhythm when travelling across multiple easterly time zones.

How long does Melatonin take to work?

Melatonin for jet lag-related insomnia is a short-term treatment and should only be taken for a maximum of 5 days in a row. Within that time it should help your sleep get back into a regular rhythm.

You don’t need to start taking Melatonin until you arrive at your destination.

Once you arrive at your destination you should take your first dose of Melatonin at your usual bedtime – continue taking it at this time each night you take it (up to a maximum of 5 nights in a row).

For maximum benefit, and to reduce any daytime side effects, you should only take Melatonin after 8pm and before 4am.
