This melatonin capsule delivers 10mg per serving aimed at sleep onset — a dose that sits well above the 0.5–5mg range used in most clinical sleep research. **Melatonin** is the hormone your body releases at night to signal it's time to sleep, and supplementing it has solid evidence for helping you fall asleep faster and easing jet lag.
The catch is the dose itself. At 10mg you're taking roughly double the top of the studied range, and the research is clear that more melatonin isn't more effective for falling asleep — higher doses can actually leave you groggy the next morning without improving sleep onset. Most people get the same benefit from 0.5–3mg.
A 10mg dose makes the most sense if you've tried lower amounts and found them ineffective, or for short-term use against significant jet lag. If you're new to melatonin, start lower and move up only if you need to.
