Product Description
Now Melatonin 5mg Capsules 60s is a premium sustained-release/slow-release formulation from Now Foods (USA) – one of the most trusted and bestselling melatonin brands in UAE premium pharmacies and health stores (Holland & Barrett, BinSina, Life Pharmacy, iHerb.ae). Each capsule delivers 5mg of pharmaceutical-grade melatonin in a dual-action release: Immediate release → helps you fall asleep faster Extended release → helps you stay asleep longer and wake up refreshed Perfect for frequent travellers crossing multiple time zones (Dubai–Europe/USA), night-shift workers, or anyone whose natural melatonin production is low due to age, stress, or screen exposure. Widely recommended by UAE sleep specialists and neurologists. Benefits • Fall asleep faster and stay asleep all night (up to 7–8 hours) • Reduces jet lag severity and duration when travelling east/west • No morning grogginess common with higher-dose or immediate-release melatonin • 5mg strength – optimal for most adults (3mg often too weak, 10mg can cause hangover) • Sustained-release mimics body’s natural overnight melatonin curve • 60-capsule bottle = excellent value (AED 55–75 in UAE) How to Use • Adults: Take 1 capsule (5mg) 30–60 minutes before desired bedtime – Occasional sleeplessness: use only when needed – Jet lag: start 1–2 days before travel and continue for 2–3 days at destination – Shift work: take before daytime sleep • Swallow whole with water – do not crush or chew (destroys slow-release mechanism) • Best taken on an empty stomach or light snack • Use for short periods (2–3 weeks continuously); reassess if needed longer Important Notes • Not habit-forming when used as directed • May cause vivid dreams or mild morning drowsiness in some people (reduce to half capsule if needed) • Avoid alcohol and driving after taking • Safe in pregnancy/breastfeeding only under medical advice • Consult doctor if taking warfarin, immunosuppressants, or diabetes medication (melatonin can interact)
