"Have tried this a few times in desperate hope of having a peaceful night. While I do find it helps me to drift off to sleep initially, I wake about hour or so later buzzing and with a headache. So I don’t find this helps at all, don’t waste your money"

"I took this for sleeplessness caused my anxiety. Personally I found that nytol knocked me out and kept me asleep which was great because I needed the sleep but the next morning each time I would wake up and lose my balance and felt faint and lethargic the whole next day after taking them alongside with aches and pains all along my body and heart palpitations"

"To be honest I heard bad reviews about this and I said whatever I'll try it and what I learned is its a wonderful product. I take one tablet with water hour before I sleep then I lay in bed for 30 mins then I fall asleep through the night... Honestly it's a wonderful product.. My doctor recommend me to take this"

"Am so disappointed that it is not working. I took a full capful of Nytol caramel flavoured liquid and feel wide awake and restless. Usually I can lie awake quietly listening to my husband snoring but tonight I tossed and turned so much that I woke him... quite an achievement. Don't waste your money. Take a cup of tea and a digestive biscuit to bed instead!"

"I do sleep at night, but wake up every few hours, so wanted to see if Nytol would help me sleep all night, On Friday I took a tablet about an hour before bed, it didn't make any difference, but was very tired in the morning, and struggled to get going Saturday I tried again, the same thing, slept the night, but kept waking up, but this time in the morning, I was totally knocked out couldn't move off the couch, and fell asleep around 10 am for a while. Not good!"

"I have exam season going on right now - due to which I need to start getting my 7 hours circadian sleep. I have bad habits from before, where I can't sleep til 3 am most times. I took this at 12:30, and it took 25 minutes to kick in for me despite having a clinically slower metabolism. By 1:15-1:30, I was definitely able to have slept if I wasn't been spoken to by my sister. At 2 I was so sleepy I couldn't even focus my eyes. Woke up after my full 8 hours, groggy and harder to get out of bed than usual though - but this didn't last long. Will definitely only use these when I NEED to sleep. Rating: +10 for effectiveness -1 for the grogginess Overall: 9/10"

"Where to start? I took two Nytol tablets at 9.30pm it’s now 3.55am and I’m more wide awake than I ever remember being before. My legs felt so achey and restless I’ve had to get up to make a cup of tea and take paracetamol. I’m just glad I’ve got a day off and not got to work. Dreadful experience throwing them away"

"I'm trying to come off my prescription sleeping pills so thought I'd try Nytol to ease me off them, never doing that again. They gave me mild stomach cramps for an hour and feeling light headed, more uncomfortable than sleepy, terrible."

"Brilliant product. Works a charm. Just make sure to take on empty stomach or they don’t work. I eat at 6 pm then take at ten. They can give you restlessness with legs so taking a magnesium alongside is helpful."

"Never again! I had been having trouble falling asleep for about a week, so took Nytol. I fell asleep, but woke several hours later, with dead arms and dead legs. Very scary experience. I would never, ever take this again."

"I started using these about a month ago as I've had problems sleeping for ages. I took 25mg before bed. And yes, these work. You'll not only sleep better, but you'll wake up feeling drugged and exhausted for hours after you wake - even on this small dose. Not only that, but I believe this drug also triggered really bad heart palpitations. They say that side effect is rare, but I'm not so sure. Taking this drug, imo, will make you worse off than if you don't take it. Try other methods to get to sleep that aren't drug taking. I seriously couldn't believe how this drug made me feel. You do not wake up fresh. You wake up feeling drugged and groggy and that can last all day. Will not take anymore."

"I usually use the tesco brand sleep tabs and they work fine. Tesco had ran out so I paid for Nytol. Took one first night and couldn’t sleep felt like I had taken speed, restless legs the lot was awake until 1.30 ish. Next night was worst . Put in bin do not use"

"I started taking half a tablet before bed as for a long time I've had poor sleep, and these tablets work - a bit too well. You sleep better, but they also have left me feeling so groggy and sleepy the next day, sort of drugged feeling. I know because I skipped one night - didn't take any - and the next day I felt normal. Then next night, half a tablet again before bed, and all day next day very sleepy - so sleepy you struggle to do anything. I also take beta blockers so this could be the reason. Who knows. but they work. If you haven't taken them before, I advise you to only take half a tablet before bed rather than a whole one. and you might need caffeine to wake up a bit the next day."

"Nytol is useless. I can take one panadol night for the occasional insomnia and sleep. Sometimes a Piriton works just one but the nytol doesn't ever work. I will never buy again. Doesn't work at all. It is absolutely useless."

"I tried this once a night for couple of weeks. Awful I never slept at all. Felt my mind was rushing I only drifted off at 7am through exhaustion. Awful taste in mouth next day and felt sick with tiredness. Will never use again"

"I can get to sleep very easily but find I wake for 2-3 hours around 2-3am. When I awake I feel grim! I’m sorry to see so many people who’s experience of Nytol hasn’t been good. For me it kick starts a better sleeping pattern leaving me feeling much better on waking after s full nights sleep. I will take for 3 nights and hope the sleep pattern improves. It usually does!"

"I have chronic insomnia. I’m usually up until 4am, even then sometimes I struggle. Thought with starting a brand new school soon I’d try these as anxiety keeps me up too, and they have not worked whatsoever, in fact seem to have the opposite effect. My eyes do feel heavy but when I try to sleep I just can’t drift off no matter what. Don’t recommend, I doubt I'll be trying these again"

"I have feeling that most people have been buying the Nytol in the green pack, which is supposed to be 'natural' and dosn't really work. I have the ones in the blue box, I only take a half a tablet and I sleep so well. Would have been lost without them at certain times."

"I loved this product after starting a new anti depressant for anxiety I had the side effect of insomnia I hadn’t slept well all week I took 2 tablets last night and had the best nights sleep ever. These worked perfectly for me as I don’t drink or smoke or consume caffeine. I also eat healthy and exercise regular so the insomnia had been really getting to me as I couldn’t do anything else to stop it. So thank you nytol"

"I have tried Nytol a few times and oddly enough it seems to act as a stimulant rather than a sleep aid. Totally wide awake and restless legs to boot! Joy. Nightnurse is the only thing that works for me every time, but getting it regularly from a pharmacy is difficult, as you have to have cold and flu symptoms for them to give it to you. Tablet form works best if you can get it."

"First time I took Nytol it did work, second lot of time I took it it didn't asw ell and the third lot of times. Today is the third lot of times of anything. It made me more awake which is the opposite effect that I wanted. I may try taking 2 in the next nite and see if that helps."

"Knocked me right out! I took it to try and sort out my “body clock”, as I wasn’t getting to sleep until about 4am. I took it at 9:30pm and was asleep by 10:15pm. It did cause some very vivid dreams, and I woke up a few times in the night. I also felt quite groggy in the morning, like I couldn’t wake up properly. However it did get me to sleep so I’ll be using it again"

"Use this regularly to help with my irregular work shift patterns, I take 100mg and within 40 minutes I start to feel drowsy enough to sleep. Yes it gives a dry mouth and some fogginess in the morning at times but this brand is well worth using for insomnia. Outcome may vary for others"
