For Insomnia "This stuff is one of those products where 'works great' or is total junk, depending on how the ingredients work with the individual taking the stuff. For me, it might as well have been a shot of espresso coffee, one or two gummies either way, I'm awake for 90% of the night."

"I took ZzzQuil as I thought it would help me fall asleep earlier since I have COVID. Instead, it created a nightmare scenario as I now seem to have insomnia from it. I really needed a good night's sleep, so I'm very dissatisfied."
