I put in an order on Biovea yesterday after finding none on Piping Rock or iherb. I’ve been taking 1mg this last year since my husband died. The gummies were good. I had been planning to try and wean off them but not quite yet. Hopefully my package will get through!

Wow there are so many on that website to choose from. Which did you go for (assuming the mixed berry ones you mentioned were the Piping Rock ones)?

Strawberry flavour 5mg dissolvable. I didn’t see a mixed berry one or I would have definitely gone fir that.

I’m starting to wonder if nothing has actually changed, but Piping Rock have just decided to stop shipping to the UK as some parcels do get stopped? Seems odd that these other companies aren’t having issues…

i would say maybe it’s to do with being US based - but the company I went for instead sent it from the US.

I usually use a french pharmacy but those ones are also now not available to buy and ship here, so something has changed but my biovea order from Bulgaria arrived in the promised two days and whilst it was paused at customs it did go through, I think the same as a couple of other pp in here. Mine only turned up yesterday and I got a few different strengths. Last night was my first night but they didn’t work so I ended up taking the prescribed sleeping tablets a few hours later but I’m still going to persevere.

I’m anxiously waiting to see that the piping rock order has been delivered to my friend in the US. I really can’t afford to lose the money if it doesn’t there on time (it says 3-5 working days and he was out there for 2 more weeks so I’m hoping it’s ok).

It says it has been dispatched. Just hoping it arrives with them in time. They’re still there for another week so it should be!

Oh fingers crossed! You’d hope that it being an internal order/delivery that it shouldn’t take too long.

It’s saying out for delivery today - and my friend has said they’d planned a day in today having been out all day every day, so that has worked out well! Hopefully this time tomorrow I’ll know he has it.

I’ll definitely need to buy him and his wife a bottle of something as a thank you.

So jealous. I miss my Piping Rock ones.

Do you know anyone going on holiday to the US, or who lives there? I got lucky finding out this friend was out there - and he agreed I could order from piping rock to where they were staying. Maybe you could find someone that will do similar. I’ve got 3 of us on these, so that won’t last a huge amount of time… I’m going with what I already have I can get my youngest through to the end of his GCSE’s in 2 years time

My GP said that melatonin is now an option for insomnia through the NHS. So I’d recommend seeing your GP.

It only for 1mg pills
I take 20mg fast release as nothing will touch the sides

No idea what I will do now can’t import it

Oh wait ….Possibly doing what I am doing now…. Lay in bed wide awake after yet another sleepless night

Why was importation banned

There‘s some potential serious issues with gummies aimed at children including poor industry regulation, inaccurate dosing ( higher content then advertised) and risk of overconsumption leading to overdose..so a good thing in many ways , particularly as melatonin potentially impacts on deep sleep quality which is so important for children. https://www.bmj.com/content/390/bmj.r1384 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/search/research-news/18799/

Well deep sleep is definitely going to be impacted when dc are wide awake at 4am and have been up all night.
