MELATONIN

I was given a different brand of Melatonin called Nature's Bounty Maximum Strength 10 mg in the hospital after back surgery. I wasn't sure if it worked the way it should because it took an hour before I'd fall asleep, I'd be asleep for 5 hours and then have a hard time returning to sleep. When I was discharged my husband purchased this item, Vitamin Shoppe 3 mg Melatonin.

Vitamin Shoppe 3 mg doesn't keep me asleep. I am drowsy 1 hour after taking it but I am awake 2 hours later and I'm up every 2 hours throughout the night. When I took 2 3 mg pills of Vitamin Shoppe Melatonin I still woke up every 2 hours, the only difference is that I was more tired. I won't try 3 pills.
