tomazbodner 9741 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I get it from neighbour flight attendant that flies off to US nearly weekly. But I've bought from Lazada in the past. Same stuff, similar expiry dates. I usually get these gummies, as they taste good also: https://www.lazada.co.th/products/vitafusion-sleep-well-3mg-60-gummies-i3127363397-s11634214272.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl 39214 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 It is perfectly legal here. People vary greatly in their response to it and dose and brand also matter. I tke 10mg almost every night (Puritan Pride brand); works well and no drowsiness next day. On rare occasion I take another 5 mg in quick-dissolve form if I wake up middle of the night and have trouble going back to sleep. I find this is fine as long as I still have at least 3-4 hours more to sleep. But that is me. YMMV. No need to get from iherb you can order from Shoppee or Lazada. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkady 4066 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I have ordered a single bottle from iHerb and it arrived at my door with no problem. Of course, it is subject to the usual strictures to do with importing supplements. Strictly speaking, even though the supplement is perfectly legal in Thailand the brand needs to be approved by the Thai FDA and you need some documentation to import it. But in practice they usually let through small packages coming by mail with declared value under THB 1,500. Everything sent by courier gets opened and taxed and may not be allowed in. I have only tried it a couple of times but it worked. 3mg made me feel drowsy enough fall asleep without ill effects in the morning. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felt 35 814 Posted January 13 Author Share Posted January 13 Thanks for the replies. Is really only 3mg enough for adults. I saw a product on iherb.com that apparently was new at 12mg and welcomed by many reviewers so I thought it was the 10-12mg I had to look for! Btw, how does it affect the next day? I am usually a morning person sleeping well or not, and if it is like a hangover it is not for me! Felt Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The practice: it works for Sheryl whereas I feel no effect at all. YMMV - you really have to try. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstevens 2982 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I have used Melatonin 1.5 mg slow-release, 3 mg and 5 mg. All work much the same for me. I feel good the next day, with zero side effects. I only use it occasionally - if I had a poor night's sleep the night before or I feel I really need a good night's sleep because I have big plans the next day.

airbalance 16 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 You can already buy melatonin in Bangkok (Lazada/Shopee) so I don't think you actually need to go through iherb anymore . Faster delivery as well! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangel72 308 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Local chemist in Bangkok had a big advert outside its shop for Melatonin so likely available in many chemists over the counter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phetphet 6359 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 You can buy it in the local pharmacies. One of the names is Circadin if I recall correctly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickeymaus 2973 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I have bought both at Lazada. The left ones crumble to dust. Never again. But in the end none of them work for me. I can take 20 mg and still nothing. Better some 🍺🍺🍺. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felt If it does not work I suggest you try one of the better known/recommended brands and in larger dose before giving up. Brand makes a big difference. Remember these are classified as nutritional supplements not pharmaceuticals in country of origin which means almost no regulatory oversight so no gurantee it contains the active drug in amount stated. Takes trial and error and also reading online reviews (Amazon etc) to find reliable formulations. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try Thorne's Melatonin which I have found to be excellent: https://www.thorne.com/products/dp/melaton-5-trade This is available on iHerb. Thorne is one of the best supplements makers. Not the cheapest, but one of the best. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felt Update. Received Vitafusion 3 Mg Gummies from iherb.com yesterday and can't complain about the delivery time in any case. Will try a tablet now tonight (Gummy) and will be exciting to see how the effect will be.🤔 Felt Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
