>Well, it's hard to say. The first night I increased to 500mg, there were some potential complications (I'd taken Vit D, which always seems to give me insomnia).
Last night I took 500mg and was feeling a little tired 2 hours later, but not nearly enough to sleep, so I added in melatonin and an anti-histamine and fell asleep relatively quickly, but my sleep quality was poor once again.
