Nature's Bounty Melatonin 5mg, 60 Softgels (Pack of 3)

The health care products very helpful for sleep.My mom nearly 60 years old this year,ande she has been deeply troubled insomnia,this product has the better help for her sleep.

I have had trouble sleeping (falling asleep and sometimes staying asleep) and it is a drag! Can't remember where I came across Nature's Bounty Melatonin but I had been using some generic product from a local market and realized at some point after beginning use of this product how much more effective it is. I fall asleep easily, sleep deeply and only occasionally wake during the night. I was having a conversation with a doctor and asked if he wanted to know the absolute best melatonin and he said, "Wait, don't tell me....Nature's Bounty!" The word is out!!

I bought this melatonin for the first time a couple weeks ago. Before this, I had tried all the over-the-counter sleep aids, but they just didn't help me fall asleep. Then I tried Nature's Bounty melatonin. I take 2 caplets around 7 PM every evening. I start feeling drowsy about an hour to hour and 1/2 after taking them. I'm usually up until 10 or 11 PM watching TV. Whenever I'm done watching TV, I just fall right asleep no problem at all, I'd say within a few minutes. I also usually sleep through the entire night. Of course I can't say these would help everyone, as everyone reacts differently to every medication or supplement, but this melatonin works perfectly for me. I've done some research about melatonin, and it seems to be fairly safe, so looks like I'll probably take this long term.

My child has ADHD. We first started the Melatonin regimen to help with bedtime, which would only be a struggle because my child could not fall asleep for an hour, two hours or more. As anyone who has had insomnia knows, this is awful. Now imagine being a small child who can't lie still or make her mind calm down due to ADHD and being stuck in a non-sleepy mode when the rest of the house is dark and quiet.

I researched natural ways to help my child go to sleep and discovered that melatonin is safe for children and does not lose its efficacy even after two years of use (according to some study I found at the time). I decided to let my child try the melatonin. I really like and so does she: she does not get drowsy or woozy or feel the need to just fall asleep right away. What it DOES allow her to do is fall asleep within a normal 5-10 minute timeframe when she is ready to go to bed. We typically give it to her about an hour to hour and a half before her bedtime.

The pill is also a small soft gel that is easy for my child to swallow.

***Efficacy in adults***Middle of the Night Wakings***I have never needed any kind of sleep aid so I cannot speak for myself, however I let my 62 year old mother try some because she had been having lots of trouble staying asleep throughout the night. She reported the next morning that it did not help her with her middle of the night wakings. Maybe she needed a higher dose? Just thought that bit of info could be useful to someone who is looking for a sleep aid for middle of the night wakings or for adults.

My children take this at night before bedtime per the doctor's orders. I like these pills because they are tiny and coated and make it much easier for them to swallow. I have not seen these kind in the stores. I would recommend these to anyone who uses this product.

My doctor suggested using this when sleep eluded us. It does seem to help and this is a nice, convenient way to order and the price is fair. Very pleased.

This is the best melatonin I have ever tried.

I've had sleeping issues for years and the first melatonin I tried was Nature's Bounty 5mg Liquid Gels. After a few minutes I could already feel it, and within half an hour to an hour I was out. I was amazed at how effective these worked. After I ran out I bought a cheaper product. I thought I got a better deal, they were 130 10mg tablets and instead of 60 5mg liquid gels like Nature's Bounty, all for a few dollars more. One tablet, nothing. Two, three more, five, and finally I fell asleep after a few hours. After doing some research I found out that the quick dissolve liquid gels were effective because they immediately put all the melatonin into the body, as where the tablets slowly dissolved and entered the blood stream way later and made it harder to wake up.

Anyway, the key to this product being so effective is the liquid gels, so if you are looking to buy melatonin make sure you get them and not tablets.

My body seems to like the soft gels much better than the dry tablets, other than that,
this product gets 3 thumbs UP.........
