Fleur Marché Dream, Plz Botanical Sleep Patch - Better ZZZ's with Valerian Root, L-Theanine, Lavender Oil & Hops - Natural Sedative - Highly Bioavailable - 14 Patches

These patches may be expensive but this has been instrumental in helping me sleep. I have not slept this well in many years. I cannot take melatonin and the products with Benadryl seem to give me a hangover. But these are wonderful. I sleep at least 5-6 hours and feel rested

I used these in my recent trip to Italy. I slept like a baby the whole flight?

Felt no difference between wearing them and not wearing them. Still woke up too early and wasn’t able to fall back asleep.

In the beginning it worked like a charm and then it only worked sometimes.

I was nervous to try these because I've taken l-theanine in supplements and had an adverse reaction to them (anxiety) They definitely relax me. It takes about a half hour to kick in but I was watching a tv show and had to turn it off after a half hour because I could not stay awake. I fell asleep easily and did wake up to use the bathroom but then stayed asleep the rest of the night. when I woke up in the morning I no longer was feeling the effects but felt ready to get up and start my day. I have an anxiety disorder so I was curious to see how this affected me while awake ...during the day, to see if what I experienced last night was just a placebo effect. At any rate I decided to put another one on. I have had it on all morning and so far do not have any anxiety and I'm thinking this may not so much make you sleepy but relax you so if you are tired you can fall asleep. I am retired so I do not have to go to work. I'm not sure I would drive like this but I have an overall feeling of wellbeing and if these continue to work I will defintely buy more. The biggest drawback to me is the dark blue and size of the patch plus I have to put it on my wrist as it wants you to have it on a vascular area. I may try my ankle or some other place. They do stick as long as you place them and do not try to move them. I'm seriously considering trying to cut the patches into fourths and see if I can get a little milder effect during the day. The price is ridiculously high but if they continue to work it may be worth it. I feel like during the day I might want a lower dose so cutting them might be in order. I'll come back and update as I continue to experiment with these. Unless there is some reason to make them dark, I wish they would continue a skin colorored patch. Any shade of beige would be better than navy blue. After having the patch on 12 hrs for sleep I took it off and had no irritation on the skin. I gave these four stars because of the extreme cost, and they are big, and dark and I feel they could do something to make them blend in better....or give some instructions as to places other than the wrist. The instructions say forearm but show it on the wrist, I went with the picture of the wrist as I consider the forearm higher so I was confused as to which was accurate, but they did say a vascular area and I can see the veins on my wrist so that made the most sense. I also placed mine on the diagonal exactly as shown in the instructions. Thanks for reading my review
