      No Groggy Feeling
      The Vitamin Shoppe Melatonin has been such a game changer for my nighttime routine. If you struggle with falling asleep or just want something to help you wind down, this is honestly one of the best options I've tried. It works gently but effectively-I start to feel more relaxed without feeling overly drowsy or out of it. It helps me fall asleep faster and actually stay asleep, which makes such a difference in how I feel the next day. I also love that the tablets are easy to take and don't have…

      Capsules are the best!
      Thanks for keeping in capsule form. This is the only melatonin I buy and I've tried a bunch of different ones. I take about once a week or so when I am tossing and turning. I often have a little sbnack first if my stomach is growling. I then take and read with a dim book light for about twenty minutes. The melatonin works best in dark conditions. If still struggling listening to binaural beat tracks with headphones can Woolf wonders. Plenty of Fred apps for meditation and mediation music out there.

      Good Product
      Really enjoyed this product. Wanted to try a new brand and got good results from this product. I don't feel groggy in the morning, which was my main concern.

      Works well
      I ordered this to replace 12mg quick-dissolve tablets I used to take. It seems to work just as well as the higher dose, dissolving version did.

      Short Shelf Life. BUYER BEWARE!
      SHORT SHELF LIFE! BUYER BEWARE. This product expires in December 2022, about three months from now. Very poor practice to sell so close to expiration. I will not be able to use the 120 capsules before expiration.
      The clerk was not helpful. He said the store's practice is to keep product on the shelf until the month it actually expires. A good pharmacy or retail store would never sell products that are set to expire before they can be fully used.

      trying melatonin

      Vincent SApr 13, 2026
      Is this the slow release form as opposed to the quick release? I need the form to help me stay asleep.
      Beth CSep 18, 2015

        I think you're asking about "timed release". The lable will tell you if it is. You can also find the information under the Supplement Facts tab. Otherwise, you can assume it is the one that immediately releases the product into your system.

        I use the Natrol Advanced Sleep Melatonin 10 MG (60 Tablets), too (max strength & controlled release)... that sounds more like what you may need.

      Is this a safe method for sleep? Any side effects?
      Cassandra S.May 23, 2014

        My doc says there are no side effects unless one takes too much, then you can be groggy in the morning. The older we get, the less melatonin our body produces, so older people take a higher dose. For me at 67, I take a 10 mg. regular tablet and a 5mg. sustained release tablet right before I lie down. Works great, and I awake refreshed at my regular time.

        I found it to be safe and effective. It was prescribed by my holistic physician. I take it with valerian root to relax me to sleep. I find that taking it shout 3-4 hours before bedtime works best otherwise I feel groggy when I awake. Best of luck, Cassandra.

      Do I chew it or just swallow it?

      Best Answer:  This is meant to be swallowed only since this is not chewable.
