Sleep-Eze is indicated for the temporary relief of occasional sleeplessness in adults. It is not intended for regular daily use or for treating chronic insomnia.

The active ingredient (typically an antihistamine) blocks histamine receptors in the brain, reducing wakefulness and promoting drowsiness to help facilitate the onset of sleep.

For use only occasionally, not for extended periods. May cause drowsiness the next morning. Avoid alcohol and operating machinery until you know how the medication affects you. Consult a healthcare provider before use if pregnant, nursing, taking other medications, or having underlying health conditions. Not recommended for children under 12 without medical advice.
