Insomnia

Insomnia is a common sleep disorder characterized by difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or obtaining restorative sleep, despite having the opportunity for a full night’s rest. People with insomnia often experience fatigue, mood disturbances, decreased productivity, and a reduced quality of life due to the lack of restful sleep. Various factors, including stress, lifestyle choices, environmental factors, and health conditions, can contribute to the development of insomnia.

Melatonin tablets: 

  • Melatonin is a hormone naturally produced by the pineal gland in the brain. It helps regulate the sleep-wake cycle by signaling to the body that it is time to sleep.
  • Melatonin levels typically rise in the evening, remain high during the night, and decrease in the early morning. Supplementing with melatonin can help improve sleep for those with disrupted circadian rhythms or other sleep disorders.
