Melatonin can be purchased over the counter on the Internet or in pharmacies. This hormone can be taken for jet lag, to treat insomnia, to reduce chronic pain, or to help withdraw from sleeping pills.
Melatonin is not a candy but a therapeutic solution in case of circadian rhythm disturbance (biological rhythm over 24 hours). However, its role is not to replace dietary rules. To be effective and free of undesirable effects, its use must be adapted.
– As prescribed drug: usually after a blood test. Its dosage is usually equal to or higher than 2mg/d and its form is extended release (ER)).
– As a dietary supplement: dosed at less than 2mg, it is an immediate release form (IR) and available over the counter.
Laboratoires Activa proposes a natural supplement with melatonin designed to reduce stress and support the circadian cycle using the technology of microgranule. An extended release formula that allows release of the active ingredients over 8 hours as well as their gastroprotection for better absorption.
