Description
Dormeasan® is not a 'sleeping pill’. It is a herbal sleeping aid and won't normally leave you feeling groggy in the morning. Unlike many sleep remedies, Dormeasan® is available in the form of a liquid herbal tincture. Taken just half an hour before bedtime, it can help if you worry that you can't sleep - encouraging a more natural sleep, helping you sleep better and wake feeling refreshed.
At A.Vogel, we insist that only freshly picked Valerian root and Hops plants are used to make Dormeasan®. This ensures that the herb extracts obtained provide the active* ingredients that encourage undisturbed sleep.
The use of fresh herbs gives Dormeasan® tincture a stronger taste and smell because it has not lost its volatile oils. Some people may prefer to take Dormeasan® diluted in fruit juice, rather in water.

Four ways to use Dormeasan®
Below are the 4 most common ‘sleep problems’ encountered by our helpline, and how Dormeasan® can help.
1. I can’t get to sleep easily
I have trouble dropping off to sleep. I toss and turn until I finally doze off at 3 or 4 in the morning.
What you can try:
Take 30 drops of Dormeasan® 30 minutes before going to bed.
2. My sleep is interrupted
I fall asleep easily but wake several times through the night. This makes me feel tired and anxious during the day and exhausted when evening comes.
What you can try:
Take 10 to 20 drops of Dormeasan® once or twice during the day to help ease symptoms of anxiety – this will also help aid sleep when you retire. If you wake up in the middle of the night, take 30 drops of Dormeasan®.
3. I can’t sleep when on holiday (or when working shifts)
I don’t normally have trouble sleeping, but travelling can make me anxious and I find that my sleep can be disturbed when away on holiday or when the clock changes. I have the same problem when working shifts.
What you can try:
Take 30 drops of Dormeasan® 30 minutes before retiring to bed while you settle into these changes. Having a bottle of Dormeasan® handy in these circumstances means that you can be ready to act if you have trouble sleeping.
4. I have tried other remedies to help me sleep better
I am a light sleeper, waking up several times a night. I have tried other remedies in tablet form. These have worked to a certain extent but I would like to try something else.
What you can try:
Fresh herb extracts such as Dormeasan® are liquid herbal medicines made from freshly harvested herbs and can contain higher amounts of active substances(*).
