ReDormin

ReDormin^® (Ze 91019) is recommended for the relief of sleeplessness and insomnia, which includes difficulties in falling and staying asleep, as well as problems with uneasy sleep. ReDormin contains standardised whole extracts of valerian root and hops.

Valerian’s sedative properties have been recognised for at least 2000 years. It is used for restlessness and sleeping disorders caused by nervous conditions. The therapeutic use of hops dates back to the ninth century and it has been used by North American Indians, Chinese and Indian populations as a treatment of insomnia and restlessness. The combination of valerian and hops is therefore a perfect combination for the treatment of sleeplessness and insomnia.

Always read the label. Use only as directed.  If symptoms persist patients should consult their healthcare professional.
