remember me

sleep issues

got 120 pills of 3 mg melatonin

with 2 mg vitamin b-6 in each pill too, not sure why? maybe to help absorption?

so... should i only take half a pill or full pill?

an hour before bedtime?

whats the half life on this stuff?

and whats max dose?

ive read some stuff saying u only need 3 mcg which is quite a bit under 1 mg even?

3 is prob fine. I have 5mg pills and split those in half occasionally.

iirc reading, anything over 2.5mg you'll get no additional effects. Timing isn't super important, i usually take it 30-45 min before bed.

Tbh it doesn't help that much falling asleep, but the quality of sleep is better.

you adapt super quick. dont take them regularly. and you need to be slightly tired to begin with.

first few times i took 1, amazing. after that i quickly had to up the dose to 3 pills (9mg). now i use it maybe once every other week.

it made me drowsy in around 30 min. you'll be groggy if you dont sleep in (~12h the first time i took it)
