Melatonin is the hormone behind your body's biological clock — produced in the evening to manage your sleep and wake cycles. When your own production dips, it's not just falling asleep that suffers; staying asleep through the small hours gets harder too.

Natrol Melatonin 3mg Time Release pairs a moderate dose with a smarter delivery. The controlled-release tablet gradually releases its 3mg of melatonin through the night, supporting sustained sleep rather than a single burst at bedtime — a gentler alternative to the 5mg time-release strength. Each tablet also provides 10mg of vitamin B6 to support your body's own melatonin production. 100% drug-free, non-habit forming and vegetarian, from Natrol, the #1 melatonin brand in America.

• Helps you fall asleep faster and stay asleep with a controlled-release formula so you can wake up refreshed
• Moderate 3mg dose, released gradually through the night
• 10mg of vitamin B6 to support the production of melatonin
• 100% drug-free and non-habit forming
• 100% vegetarian
• 100 tablets per bottle — over three months of nightly support

If you take any medication or are under medical supervision, seek your healthcare professional's advice before use. For steady, low-key support that lasts until morning, Natrol Melatonin 3mg Time Release is the measured choice.

What is the benefit of time release melatonin at 3mg?

A 3mg time-release tablet offers sustained overnight support at a moderate strength. Instead of the full dose arriving at once, melatonin is released gradually over several hours — helpful for people who fall asleep readily enough but wake during the night, and who prefer a lower dose than the 5mg time-release option.

How does melatonin control the sleep cycle?

Melatonin is a hormone your body produces in response to darkness, acting as the internal clock that manages sleeping and waking. Evening melatonin release signals the body to wind down. A supplement reinforces that signal when age, stress or disrupted routines have weakened it.

Should I choose time release or standard melatonin tablets?

Choose standard (immediate-release) melatonin if your main difficulty is falling asleep, and time release if your difficulty is staying asleep. Both formats exist at 3mg strength in the Natrol range, so you can keep the same dose while changing how it's delivered.

How do you take Natrol Melatonin 3mg Time Release?

Take 1 tablet 20 minutes before bedtime. The 100-tablet bottle provides over three months of nightly servings. Avoid taking melatonin before driving or operating machinery.
