Kalms Night 56s

Keeps me calm, easy to have. Good value and lowered my blood pressure

As a menopausal woman in her 50s I have been having trouble dropping off to sleep for quite a while. I tried magnesium tablets first and after a while they stopped helping me with sleep so I thought I would give these a go as I had tried the Kalms daytime tablets briefly for a stressful period and they helped.I have been taking these tablets for over 2 weeks now and 9 times out of 10 they help me to nod off, no more 3am looking at the clock wondering why I cannot sleep!They are not miracle workers and they may not work for everyone but they have for me so I will continue to use these for now.

Some background: I have a number of mental health conditions - Anxiety, ADHD, Depression to name a few. I also have chronic pain. All of these things can contribute to a bad nights sleep, or at least mean it takes forever to get off to the land of nod.I have used things like Nightol, but found that there were times it was too strong for what is needed and left me struggling the next day because I was still groggy.Having used Kalms day and found them beneficial, and so considered giving these a go.Pros: Valerian and not Lavender - having used Lavender tablets before, I found they repeated on me. Being Valerian, I don't have this issue at all.They also work. They don't knock you out, but they I found they relax my mind and body enough to allow me to fall asleep gently. I do make a point of taking them 30-60 minutes before I go to bed most of the time. However, on occassion if I have not taken them and cannot sleep, I have taken them and found them beneficial, though they still take that time to work.The size of the tablets is small, I would say half the general size of a smartie, which maybe be a problem for some with dexterity issues, which I do have, but I find that they are small enough to tip 4 into my hand and take them in one go.I noticed others comment about the smell of them, and while they do have a mild aroma, I personally have not problem with it and they have no taste if it takes you a little longer to take them, unlike a lot of tablets.Cons: Only about 1/3 of the bottle is full. My pet peeve is packaging, especially bottles, that have hardly any product in. I would say the bottle is only one third full. I would honestly pay more for a full bottle.For that reason, petty as it may seem, I am only giving them 4 stars.I would recommend giving them a try if you want something to relax you into sleep rather than something that will essentially knock you out.

Not quite sure about this product as I only used onces and changed my mind about sleep aids.

These seem to help when I am struggling to settle down and get to sleep.The effect feels fairly gentle rather than making me suddenly or heavily drowsy, but I do seem to fall asleep more easily after taking them. I also prefer trying a traditional herbal option before considering anything stronger.Sleep remedies will affect everyone differently, but based on my experience these have been useful.

Helps me sleep well at night

Unfortunately due to Perimenopause I'm suffering from insomnia.I literally cannot fall asleep & it's been that way for a good couple of weeks now.Trying to get a Dr appointment isn't easy & so out of desperation I decided to try these.The reviews looked good but unfortunately no such luck with me.Night 1.... Took the 4 tablets & within half an hour or so, my head felt fuzzy & so I thought yes & headed to bed.Well heading to bed is all I'm doing but no sleep.Afew hours later my eyes were still wide open.Night 2... Took 4 tablets again, this time alittle earlier at 9pm hoping that they would kick in before midnight.Well 3am & my eyes were still open.Night 3, I decided to take them & head straight to bed without any waiting.Well, I waited til the sun actually rose the next morning because I was up all night.It's to the point now where I've given up on these tablets.They might of worked for some people but for me, it seems as if they're actually helping to keep me awake rather than help to me fall asleep.By the way, it's 3.50am right now as I write this review.Thought I'd give them another go.Took 4 tablets again at 8pm. Almost 8 hours later, no sign of me falling asleep, never mind sleeping.I was hoping that they would be effective but unfortunately not.

Quick delivery. Well packed. Good item. Thank you!
