I'd complained that I was getting to sleep easily but wasn't staying asleep and a friend recommended Melatonin. I tried this combo (got it at the natural foods dept of my local Fred Meyer store) and was pleasantly surprised at how it worked.

The instructions say take 1 at bedtime. These aren't supposed to make me sleepy - they're supposed to keep me asleep. And they work. I've been sleeping a bit longer, deeper. Don't feel groggy in the morning at all.

Nice product!

I've tried other melatonin products , but this works best for me. Just be sure to let it completely melt in your mouth and be ready to go to sleep. It works fast!

Schiff Melatonin Plus 3 mg Melatonin with 25 mg Theanine - For Stress Relief and a Sounder Sleep - 300 Tablets

This is my personal favorite Melatonin. It seems to work for me better than any other melatonin product that I've tried. Must be the L-Theanine that it has. I let it melt in my mouth for faster results. You have to be really ready to go asleep, say like in 30 minutes or less. It doesn't leave you groggy in the mourning if you take it this way. Just a quicker more restful sleep. It's available at Sam's Club, also. It , also helps to take with 100mg of 5-HTP.

Melatonin always works for me but for some odd reason this one would not. I chewed up two and there was no effect even later when I tried more at different times of the night other nights and still nothing. Even when I fell asleep I didn't sleep good as usual when I take my normal kind of melatonin in liquid form. I guess this works for some people given the reviews so odds are its gonna be this way for a lot of people where it works or it doesn't and not much in between. Melatonin is still great but I guess I will just stick with the liquid form. I have no idea why this kind would not work for me but it simply wouldn't so hence my rating.

I was to the point of moving into our guest room because of my husbands snoring, especially loud and more disturbing after he had a very busy day and in conjunction with his apnea I would lay there awake and constantly rock him when he stopped breathing. Neither of us getting much sound sleep. My friend gave me a bottle of Schiff and suggested I take it so I wouldn't hear his snoring. Well, I gave him a tablet when I took mine because it says for stress relief. He went to sleep and I read awhile, I kept reaching over just to make sure he was still breathing he was sleeping so peacefully. That was about 3 months ago. He still has a bad day ever so often but these things have worked for him and me. We take one tablet each every night, and there's no loud snoring around here.

Didn't seem to work as good as other Melantonin products. In fact, didn't seem to work at all. My husband has taken Melantonin for years and he felt that this was almost like not taking it at all. I had thought that since it sounded like it was stronger/longer that it would really work-

Didn't for us though but might for someone else-

I've used Melatonin for years and think it's the best. I thought this would be even better....it's NOT. I would almost swear that it even kept me up at night!

I had been taking Ambien but found myself hooked to it and very groggy in the morning. I tried to sleep without the Ambien but could not do it. It's terrible when you can't fall asleep and you know you have a full day of work ahead. Anyway, my mother picked this bottle up at Costco and she gave it to me. It sat in my cabinet for about 2 months because I don't like taking stuff that is not FDA approved. However, one day, I decided to try and boy does this little thing REALLY WORK! I rarely have dreams but I dreamt all night long. I'm generally a very light sleeper but this little pill made me feel like I got some really DEEP sleep. Anyway, for the skeptics, I say you give it a try, it works wonders. Great stuff, I highly recommend! Thanks SCHIFF!

All the good reviews I saw on here helped me to decide to try this out but unfortunately I didn't get the same results. My problem hasn't been falling asleep, but staying asleep, every night I wake up only to see the alarm showing 1:30 or 2:00. Here is what I did.

Day1: Took one pill, swallowed whole. This was by far the worst nights sleep I had in awhile. I don't think I slept for more than 30 minutes at a time and it took me 3 hours to fall asleep the first time.

Day2: Same as Day1. I thought maybe Day1 was just a fluke and something else was keeping me awake. While not as bad as Day1 there was no improvement from my nights of taking nothing, in fact I think I woke up earlier in the night than I usually do.

Day3: Sucked it like candy until it dissolved. I saw a few reviewers, including the top rated one, saying this was the way to do it, but once again it did nothing for me. Also, it took forever dissolve, probably around 15-20 minutes. Had no noticeable taste.

Day4: Chewed it into dust then swallowed it with some water. I'm starting to sound like a broken record, but once again, nothing.

Day5: Same as Day4 but took two tablets. Same results.

Don't know what else to say, I had high hopes for this product, but it didn't help me at all. Time to try something else.

Well, researchers said that it should be tried for 3 days tell it gives a result. I have used it for the three days and then decided to quit. I had the worst sleep ever restless and irritable for the three days, I slept better before using it. I think it is not for me and you should consider that it might be not for you either.
