I get time released Meletonin, I am taking it with 50 mg of Benadryl, my doctor recommended, it helps me sleep through the night.
This is the most important time to sleep, the REM sleep helps in generating melotonin and other hormones, so it is important to get a good nights sleep. Of course, it is 1:30am and I am still awake, so who am I to talk...

I was just thinking this morning at 3:00am when I was awake that if only they made a time release melatonin.... Well apparently they do and I didn't know about it. I will definetly llok for it. The problem with melatonin for me is that it only lasts 4 hours and it loses its affect after abit. I will give it a try though. Thanks.
