Melatonin 5mg tablets are a supplement commonly used to support sleep regulation and improve sleep quality, particularly for people struggling with insomnia, jet lag, shift work, or difficulty falling asleep.

Melatonin is a naturally occurring hormone that helps regulate the body’s sleep-wake cycle (circadian rhythm), signalling to the brain that it is time to sleep.

Benefits:

Helps you fall asleep faster

Supports improved sleep quality

May help reduce jet lag symptoms

Can assist with resetting sleep patterns (shift work or disrupted schedules)

Non-habit forming when used appropriately

Main Side Effects:

Drowsiness or grogginess the next day

Vivid dreams or headaches

Melatonin 5mg is typically taken 30–60 minutes before bedtime, as part of a short-term or occasional sleep support plan. While generally well tolerated, it should be used appropriately to avoid next-day drowsiness or disruption of natural sleep patterns.
