This bi-layer **Melatonin** tablet targets sleep by splitting its 5mg dose across two layers — an immediate-release layer to help you fall asleep and an extended-release layer to help you stay asleep. That 5mg sits at the top of the well-studied 0.5–5mg range, so you're getting a full effective dose for sleep onset.

The dual-release mechanism is what sets this apart. Melatonin normally clears your system within a few hours, which can leave you waking in the early hours; the extended layer here releases slowly to support sleep maintenance, not just getting you under.

One honest note on dose: for sleep onset alone, lower doses of 0.5–3mg tend to work just as well as 5mg for most people, with less morning grogginess. The real reason to choose this version is the extended layer — if you fall asleep fine but wake during the night, that's the problem this format is built for.
