Hi LynAlden (npub1a2c…w83a)
Circadin 2mg (melatonin) is a slow release prescription melatonin that is postly used in older patients because of lower melatonin levels, that affects their sleep pattern.
If you fly over multiple time zones, like US to Egypt 🇪🇬, you will definitely struggle to change your circadian rhythms.
Sleeping tablets does not address this and actually just make things worse.
“Natural” melatonin are also available but does not have the slow dose controlled release of the prescribed ones.
I have used it for many patients and for myself in the past and though not perfect, it definitely helps and it reduces jet lag after flights.
Hope this was helpful
