Melatonin
Description Melatonin
The information in the FAQ section was created by the Liki24.co.uk team and is based on the official manufacturer's manual
Melatonin is a natural hormone secreted by the pineal gland, which plays an essential role in regulating the circadian rhythm, particularly the sleep-wake cycle. Its secretion is stimulated by darkness and inhibited by light, thus reflecting the direct influence of environmental factors on biological rhythms. With advancing age, endogenous melatonin synthesis decreases considerably, which explains why sleep disorders are more common in older people.
Melatonin is currently available as a dietary supplement in various concentrations and pharmaceutical forms, and is recommended for treating insomnia and other conditions associated with biological clock imbalances.
Forms of release
Melatonin is available in several pharmaceutical forms to cover a wide range of preferences and therapeutic needs. The most common are capsules, tablets, sublingual tablets, oral drops, oral spray or jellies.
In general, the available concentrations vary between 1 mg and 10 mg. For example, Melatonina Jamieson comes in the form of 5 mg sublingual tablets, Bien Dormir con Melatonina is available in 5 mg capsules, and Bio Melatonina contains 3 mg melatonin tablets.
Manufacturers - Rotta Natura, Zenyth, Jamieson, Laboratorios Remedia, Esi, etc.
Indications for use
Melatonin is mainly indicated in the following situations:
- Sleep disorders (insomnia, difficulty falling asleep, frequent night-time awakenings)
- Jet lag, commonly experienced by people who travel long distances
- Circadian rhythm disorders in shift workers or people with delayed sleep phase syndrome
- Reduction of oxidative stress and support for cellular health through antioxidant properties
- Slows down the ageing process thanks to its ability to protect cell membranes
- Immune support, as melatonin has a beneficial effect on the immune system
Dosage
The dosage of melatonin should be adjusted according to concentration, age, severity of sleep disorder and individual sensitivity.
In general, 1 capsule or tablet per day is taken in the evening, approximately 30 minutes before bedtime. Sublingual melatonin should be allowed to dissolve completely without being swallowed or chewed.
It is advisable to follow the recommendation of a specialist, especially in the case of long-term treatment.
Contraindications
Melatonin is contraindicated in the following situations:
- Children and adolescents, unless specifically recommended by a doctor
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women, as the safety of melatonin during breastfeeding or pregnancy has not been sufficiently documented
- People who are hypersensitive to melatonin or any of the product's excipients
In case of coagulation disorders, high blood pressure, depression or other severe chronic diseases, it is advisable to seek the advice of a specialist.
Special instructions
After taking melatonin in the evening, it is essential to avoid exposure to bright artificial light or screens, as these may inhibit the action of melatonin.
Driving or operating machinery should also be avoided for the first 4–5 hours after administration due to possible drowsiness.
Side effects
Melatonin is generally well tolerated. However, some side effects may occur, especially at high doses or in cases of individual sensitivity:
- Headache
- Excessive daytime sleepiness
- Nausea, abdominal cramps
- Irritability
- Dizziness
These reactions are usually transient and disappear when the dose is reduced or discontinued.
Interactions with other medicines and foods
Melatonin may interact with several medicines:
- Anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents – may increase the risk of bleeding
- Sedative or hypnotic drugs – additive effect
- Immunosuppressants – potential antagonism
- Anticonvulsants, oral contraceptives, beta-blockers – may alter melatonin levels
Also, taking melatonin with alcohol or caffeine can significantly reduce its effectiveness, interfering with sleep quality.
Overdose
Although melatonin has a high safety profile, overdose (intentional or accidental) can lead to an increase in the adverse effects already mentioned.
In case of overdose, it is recommended to discontinue use and seek medical advice.
Storage conditions
Melatonin should be stored in its original packaging, tightly closed, in a dry place, away from light and excessive heat, at temperatures below 25°C.
Keep out of the reach and sight of children. Best before the expiry date stated on the packaging.

I'm thrilled with ZzzQuil Natura. It has the same ingredients as the one from Romania, and that gives me a lot of confidence. I hope I'll start sleeping better.

Very good melatonin, I use it every day

ZzzQuil Natura, 60 jellies, Procter & Gamble
Due to various circumstances in my private life and at work, I have had a lack of sleep for a long time. I have trouble falling asleep and wake up during the night, where I often stare at the ceiling for many minutes. Wick ZzzQuil has really helped me to sleep better. I am very satisfied with this product.

My wife and I have been using these gummies for a long time because we wanted to do without chemical pills. The gummies don't help you sleep through the night, but they are a great aid to falling asleep. As well as being a great sleep aid, the gummies also taste delicious. I will definitely be reordering before my supply runs out.

We were recommended Wick ZzzQuil by friends and then ordered and tried it out. We were skeptical at first, but were pleasantly surprised. It helped both my husband and I to fall asleep, at least we can fall asleep more quickly

I have been struggling with problems falling asleep for a long time. Since I started using this product, however, they have improved! I can fall asleep within a few minutes and I sleep better and, above all, throughout the night. They taste very pleasant. Like gummy bears :)

Very good Non-addictive and soothing sleep

ZzzQuil Natura, 60 jellies, Procter & Gamble
I can only recommend it if you suffer from sleep problems. It's so good not to have to think about what's been bothering you all day before you go to sleep. Take it and fall asleep.

I've been taking Zzzquill for over a year now and I'm still thrilled. I take one just before I go to sleep and fall asleep within 10 minutes. It used to take me at least an hour. If I wake up during the night and can't fall asleep, I take another one and fall asleep again immediately. Great product!

ZzzQuil Natura, 60 jellies, Procter & Gamble
I am very satisfied because I can really fall asleep in 15 minutes. And I'm well rested in the morning. My neighbors have also been taking them for a long time and are also very satisfied. They also taste very good, I always feel like I'm sucking on little gummy bears. The banana and mango flavors are great.

It really is amazing how effective 1 soft rubber is. No more chemical sleeping pills. Good restful sleep and no residual tiredness the next morning. exactly as described.

As I couldn't fall asleep for a long time and was constantly racing my thoughts, I ordered this product. I had never used sleep aids before. Conclusion after almost a month of use: you really do fall asleep quickly. You don't become addicted and there is no habituation effect. The only drawback is that you fall asleep reliably, but not all the way through. I still wake up after 4 to 5 hours of sleep and can't fall asleep again. However, thanks to the product, I actually get more sleep than before.

The Wick ZzzQuil soft gums help me to fall asleep very quickly (they are not a sleep aid!). I take a soft gum when I'm already in bed and I'm out in no time. There is no habituation effect, they taste good (wild berry) and help quickly. I am very satisfied and can definitely recommend them.
