What is melatonin?
Melatonin is a hormone the pineal gland releases as daylight fades, signalling that night has arrived. Its level rises through the evening and drops toward morning. Travel across time zones or working nights can put that signal out of step with the clock.

Why sublingual?
A sublingual tablet goes under the tongue, where it dissolves on its own. No water is needed, which is handy at the bedside or on a flight.
Dosage: All uses except abdominal pain: Take as needed; allow to dissolve under the tongue 1–3 tablets once daily, 10 to 30 minutes before bedtime, or use as directed by a health care practitioner. Abdominal pain: At bedtime only; allow to dissolve under the tongue 1–3 tablets once daily, or use as directed by a health care practitioner. Use for a minimum of 2 weeks to see beneficial effects.
Cautions: When using this product, avoid taking with alcohol or products that cause drowsiness, driving or using machinery for 5 hours. Consult a health care practitioner if sleeplessness persists for more than 4 weeks (chronic insomnia). Consult a health care practitioner prior to use if you have cardiovascular, immune, liver, or kidney disease, seizure disorder, asthma, or diabetes. Consult a health care practitioner prior to use if you are taking steroids or blood thinners, medications for seizure or blood pressure, or medications to suppress the immune system, to affect mental state, or to increase sedation. Do not use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Stop use if allergy occurs or if you experience headache, confusion, or nausea. Keep out of the reach of children.

Good product
I recently switched to a liquid form of melatonin as the pill form contains lactose. Even though the product was not exactly what I needed it is still a great product.
