For Insomnia "I had been suffering from insomnia and restless legs, so the doctor gave me a week's course of sleeping tablets, which obviously worked brilliantly. When they were gone, I went back to no sleep all night once again, so I tried Nytol as a last resort. I have taken two an hour before I want to sleep for two days now, and they have absolutely done the trick. I'm surprised, to be honest, because most of the reviews are so poor! They make me feel relaxed, and before I know it, I'm asleep. It's wonderful! I did have a slight headache the next day, but no dry mouth and only very minor drowsiness in the morning. I highly recommend them, and I'm so glad to have found something that works."

For Insomnia "Absolutely useless. I took 2 Nytol, and I was up all night. Then I have every single side effect. I still have a headache 12 hours after. I will not be taking them again. Be very wary with these tablets. They make you stay awake all night. Xanax and diazepam are the best to get to sleep."

For Insomnia "A complete waste of money. I have had recent sleep problems, so thought this would be a solution. It had no effect whatsoever, apart from causing a headache. This made the dire warnings I got from the pharmacist when I bought it about long-term usage and dependency completely laughable. I considered returning the garbage to them and demanding my money back."

For Insomnia "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 an hour or so later, buzzing and with a headache. So I don’t find this helps at all, don’t waste your money."

For Insomnia "Took 1 last night Nytol tablet 1 hour before bed. Mild sedative-like effect, but fell asleep okay. Next morning, I felt more tired at work than I did in bed, haha :) Plus dry mouth, and luckily avoided a headache by drinking water!"

For Insomnia "Terrible product, did more harm than good. Took the one Nytol pill/night which gave me a terrible headache and diarrhea all day, the day after taking it. Avoid at all costs."

For Insomnia "I couldn't sleep for days, so I took Nytol. It worked for me, they made me sleep without interruption the last 2 days. The only problem is that I have a headache the next day."

For Insomnia "I tried Nytol 50mg for the first time to ease insomnia, but so far all it has done is keep me wide awake through the night with uncomfortable headache, dry mouth & throat, and leg pains. I should have just taken a chance with the usual three hours of sleep. Taking Nytol is such a waste and a horrible experience."
