Nytol Original is a specially formulated remedy for short-term sleeplessness and stress. It has been shown to help sufferers of insomnia fall asleep faster, have a longer and deeper sleep, and to wake up feeling rested in the morning.
Insomnia is a sleep disorder which can stop you from getting a full night’s sleep. Everyone has the occasional sleepless night, but if you find that you regularly struggle to fall or stay asleep you could be suffering from insomnia. When you don’t get enough sleep, you can find it more difficult to concentrate and may feel tired and irritable, which is why many people who suffer from insomnia reach for short-term remedies like Nytol.
Nytol Original contains diphenhydramine hydrochloride, which works by blocking the production of histamine in your body. Histamine stimulates arousal-promoting areas of your brain, so blocking this process helps to encourage the first drowsy stage of sleep and reduce your levels of awareness. This will help you to drift off into a restful night’s sleep.
If you’ve been suffering through sleepless nights and are looking for a temporary solution which could help you to get some sleep, Nytol Original could be the right product for you. It can help you to get some much-needed rest, perfect for those who are suffering from stress from work or just everyday life. You should take these tablets around 20 minutes before bedtime, making sure you have enough time to get the full night’s sleep this product can provide.
