Who is it for?
Jet lag treatment is suitable for adults travelling across multiple time zones who want help adjusting their sleep pattern more quickly.
How it works:
The medication contains melatonin, a hormone that helps regulate your body’s natural sleep cycle. Taking it at the correct local time can help reduce sleep disruption and fatigue after long-distance travel.
Dosage:
Typically taken at bedtime in your destination time zone for a few days after arrival. Your pharmacist will advise on the correct timing and dose based on your travel plans.
Side effects:
Possible side effects may include drowsiness, headache, dizziness, or mild nausea. These are usually short-lived.
Additional precautions:
Try to adjust your sleep schedule before travel where possible, stay hydrated, and limit caffeine or alcohol close to bedtime.
