Yes. Sleep Bears contains doxylamine, a substance that is approved in the Netherlands as an effective and safe sleeping pill. The Medicines Evaluation Board (CBG) has officially registered doxylamine as a medicine for the short-term treatment of insomnia. A low, carefully chosen dosage is used in Sleep Bears, which falls well within the safety limits.

Although supplements with pharmaceutical ingredients sometimes fall somewhere between food supplements and medicines, there is no ban on doxylamine in low doses such as those used in Sleeping Bears.

Sleep Bears helps you fall asleep faster and sleep longer. Doxylamine has a calming effect on the central nervous system, which supports the natural process of falling asleep. Unlike stronger sleeping pills, doxylamine does not cause an abrupt “knock-out”, but rather a calm transition to sleep.

In addition, we combine the active ingredient with a natural herbal mix known for its calming effect. This creates a unique combination of effectiveness and softness.

Side effects of doxylamine are rare, especially at low doses such as those in Sleeping Bears. In some cases, mild drowsiness the next morning or a dry mouth may occur. These effects are usually mild and temporary.

We have deliberately chosen a low dose per gummy, because less is often more. With a minimal amount we achieve the desired effect, while the risk of side effects remains low.

As always, listen to your body. Do you have existing health conditions or are you taking other medications? Always consult a doctor.

Sleep Bears is safe for short-term daily use. However, we advise against taking it structurally every night. For example, try going a few days without it every now and then, especially if you notice that your night's sleep is improving. This prevents your body from becoming too dependent on support and maintains its effectiveness.

Think of Sleep Bears as a tool for times when you really need it — like stress, jet lag, irregular work hours, or hormonal changes.

Many opinions about sleeping pills circulate online, but not all of the information is accurate or up-to-date. Doxylamine has been used safely for years and is also available without a prescription in other countries, such as the United States and Spain.

In the Netherlands, it's even prescribed to pregnant women suffering from nausea (in combination with vitamin B6). This speaks volumes about its safety profile.

So, it's better to rely on official sources than on anonymous forums or outdated messages.
