NOW Melatonin Chewables are great for those who struggle with swallowing pills. This obviously includes children and the occasional adult who has phagophobia (fear of swallowing). There, now at least you learned something from this review. NOW Melatonin Chewables follow a really simple formula: take melatonin and fall asleep.

How Do NOW Melatonin Chewables Work?

NOW Melatonin Chewables contain 3 mg of melatonin per lozenge. Melatonin is one of the most effective sleeping aids because it is naturally produced by your body to regulate sleep/wake cycles; so you know that by supplementing with it you aren’t introducing some foreign drug or chemical that can have wild side effects. Melatonin supplementation merely adds more melatonin to your blood stream making you sleepy. If you want to learn more about melatonin visit: http://bestsleepingpills.org/melatonin/.

NOW Melatonin Chewables Customer Reviews:

“I have a ten year old son who is autistic. He has always had trouble falling asleep, despite our best efforts with sleep routines. Although he slept through the night it clearly was not enough -he was up too late. I hated to see him stumble around every morning. We tried melatonin and from the first night it worked like magic. He falls asleep in what I would call a normal fashion -he gets quiet but doesn’t seem loopy or drugged. In the morning he is SO clearly well rested and ready for the day. There are some theories that people with autism do not properly produce melatonin. I’m my case I would agree. I would also caution parents to try other options first and ask your doctor. But for my son, there was something missing that this supplement provides. He has been taking this for several months now with no ill effect. I’d also note that he seems to get sick less – I think that getting proper sleep is helping his immune system.” – Mrs. E

“I don’t really like the taste but they work really well.” – Anonymous

Are NOW Melatonin Chewables Safe?

Yes. NOW Melatonin Chewables contain only melatonin (a compound that is produced naturally by your body). There are no known side effects (other than sleepiness which is intended) associated with melatonin. I do have a valuable tip for you though. I know several people personally who use melatonin tablets/droplets/chewables and they all say that it works great for the first month or two. Then they find themselves increasing their nightly dosage because the old dosage isn’t as powerful as it once was. Not everyone will build up a tolerance to melatonin; for some people 3 mg might be fine forever. But, if you notice that it isn’t as powerful or effective as it once was then you should take a break from melatonin for a couple months to avoid building an excessive tolerance to it.

Overall Value:

One bottle of NOW Melatonin Chewables comes with 180 lozenges and costs about $10. So theoretically one bottle could last 6 months which is a lot of bang for your buck. The makers of NOW Melatonin Chewables suggest that you take them along with Now True Calm and 5-HTP in order to amplify its power. NOW Melatonin Chewables would be a solid choice for anyone with sleeping problems.
