A high-dose 10mg melatonin capsule, potentially effective but with a dose that may be too high for many, and not offering the best value.
Quantity: 120, Dose: 3mgQuantity: 90, Dose: 5mg
Sundown's 10mg melatonin capsule provides a high dose of melatonin. While effective for some with persistent sleep challenges, this dosage is often higher than what is initially recommended by nutritionists for general sleep support, who suggest starting low to gauge individual response and minimize side effects like next-day grogginess. The capsule form is standard, but the price per serving is somewhat high for a single ingredient 10mg melatonin, especially considering other 10mg options are available at similar or lower costs with more reviews (e.g., Natrol).
- High dosage for those who require it
- 10mg is a high dose, potentially leading to side effects
- Price per serving is higher than ideal for a basic high-dose product
- Fewer reviews than market leaders
- High dose melatonin may cause next-day drowsiness or other side effects; professional consultation is advised before using this dosage.

Categories
Melatonin 58.0
This 10mg melatonin product offers a strong dose but is less competitive due to its price point and lower review count compared to other widely used high-dose melatonin options.
Goals
Sleep Support 65.0
The 10mg dose can be very effective for significant sleep issues, but it is often an unnecessarily high starting point for many, potentially leading to side effects.
Stress Relief 30.0
Stress relief is an indirect benefit through better sleep, with no specific ingredients in the formula addressing stress directly.
Anti-Aging 20.0
The anti-aging claims are theoretical and secondary to melatonin's primary function, dependent on its antioxidant effects rather than direct cellular rejuvenation.
