Pharmacist FAQs Answered

How does Kalms Night assist with natural sleeping patterns?

Kalms Night helps your body relax naturally, instead of forcing sleep like a sleeping pill or sedative would. Its valerian root extract is believed to affect "GABA" levels in the brain, a chemical that helps relax the nervous system. This creates a soothing effect that helps you fall asleep faster and sleep longer. It works best if you struggle to switch off at bedtime because your thoughts are whirring, rather than a medical sleep disorder. Since it does not produce sleepiness on command, the result is less noticeable and works most effectively when used repeatedly over two nights.

Can I take Kalms Night every night?

Yes, Kalms Night can be used every night for short periods, ideally for 2 to 4 weeks. This allows your body time to respond to the natural ingredients and reboot its sleep-wake cycle. But if you're taking it every night and still not seeing improvement after a month, you should talk to your doctor. Chronic sleep issues may have more underlying causes—such as stress, habits, or illness—that herbal supplements won't fix. Kalms Night is to be used in addition to good sleep hygiene, not as a replacement for it. Consider making changes such as restricting screen time or caffeine if sleep problems persist.

What should I not do while taking Kalms Night?

To get the most out of Kalms Night, you should avoid alcohol and other sleeping tablets while using it. Alcohol can contribute to sedation in unforeseen ways and can disturb your natural sleeping pattern, leaving you drowsy the next day. Similarly, combining Kalms with other medications or herbal remedies for sleep can increase side effects, such as drowsiness or dizziness. Also, avoid stimulating activities close to bedtime—this includes heavy meals, exercise, and watching TV. A calming, regular bedtime routine will help reinforce Kalms Night's gentle sedative effect and lead to better sleep in general.

Is Kalms Night suitable for occasional insomnia?

While intended for occasional, daily use, Kalms Night may occasionally be taken to help relieve bouts of insomnia brought on by anxiety, travel, or interrupted routines. If you experience occasional sleep difficulties, you might find it helpful to take a tablet on nights when you anticipate having trouble unwinding—e.g., the night before an important event or after a particularly hectic day. But the relaxant effect is one that builds up over time, not suddenly, so it won't have the same impact as a fast-acting sleeping tablet. Taken in this manner, keep an eye on your sleeping patterns to avoid masking an ongoing problem.

How can I make Kalms Night work more effectively?

To maximise the relaxatory effect of Kalms Night, use it in conjunction with sleep-inducing activities. Set a consistent bedtime, even during weekends, to train your internal clock. Set a relaxing pre-bedtime routine one hour before—dim the lights, lower the noise levels, and swap screens for music or a book. Avoid stimulants containing caffeine like coffee after mid-afternoon, and keep your bedroom environment cool, dark, and cosy. When your thoughts are racing at night, try writing down your ideas or using relaxation techniques like deep breathing. In combination, these routines can help Kalms Night function better as part of a more comprehensive strategy.
