As a general guideline, we suggest only one capsule three evenings a week. At
times a person can take two capsules if one is not enough.

cases.
Children and teenagers
Can a child or adolescent take Good Night Rx?
If your child's doctor approves, yes. We suggest using this product
no more than once a week for an occasional sleepless night.
Interactions with vitamins, herbs and supplements
There are countless natural herbs and supplements and it is not possible to know
all the interactions that can occur between these natural supplements and Good
Night Rx. As a general rule, this product can be taken with almost all other
supplements.
Brain enhancers -
Acetyl l carnitine, DMAE, Galantamine, Ginkgo biloba, and Huperzine A - Most
mind enhancers cause alertness and some of their effects can last into the night
even if taken early in the day. If you have insomnia, we suggest you first stop
these brain enhancers rather than to try to counteract their alertness effects
by taking a natural sedative such as Good Night Rx.
Eyesight Rx - High dosages of Eyesight Rx can
cause insomnia and the natural sleep formula may not be able to counteract the
alertness cause by the vision pills.
Joint Power Rx - We have not had any problems reported with the combination of
Joint Power Rx and the natural sleep formula. However, try them separately for a
week before combining.
Kava products - We do not suggest taking kava pills
while taking Good Night Rx. Excess kava use may, in rare cases, cause harm to
the liver.
Multivitamins - If you take a potent multivitamin, such as MultiVit Rx,
particularly more than 2 capsules, it is possible that it could cause shallow
sleep.
Passion Rx - This herbal aphrodisiac product can cause shallow sleep in more
than one capsule is used. At time Good Night Rx may be able to counteract the
alertness cause by Passion Rx aphrodisiac product.
Prostate Power Rx - We don't foresee any untoward interactions combining the
sleep formula with Prostate Power Rx.
SAM-e - This natural antidepressant is known to cause insomnia in high dosages.
Interactions with Medications
There are thousands of prescription medications and it is not possible to know
all the interactions that can occur between these medications and natural
supplements such as Good Night Rx. Please have approval by your doctor if you
are taking prescription medications and plan to use this natural sleeping pill.
Acetaminophen or Tylenol - Since this pain
medication can cause liver damage if used daily, and since Good Night Rx has
kava which can, if used daily for prolonged periods, cause harm to liver in rare
cases, it may be advisable not to take this natural sleeping pill regularly if a
person uses Tylenol on a regular basis.
Birth control pills - Good Night Rx should not interfere with contraception
pills.
Blood pressure medications - We don't foresee any untoward reactions.
SSRI depression medications - Some of these antidepressants may cause shallow
sleep. Good Night Rx may be useful in some people taking these drugs.
Statin drugs for cholesterol, Lipitor, Zocor,
Crestor - Since statin drugs used to lower cholesterol can cause liver damage if
used daily, and since Good Night Rx has kava which can, if used daily for
prolonged periods, cause harm to liver in rare cases, it may be advisable not to
take this natural sleeping pill more than once or twice a week if a person is
prescribed these cholesterol lowering drugs.
Use by those with medical conditions
Headache - If a person has daily moderate to severe tension headaches or has
migraines headaches, it is possible that Good Night Rx may help ease the
discomfort.
Insomnia - Good Night Rx is formulated for those who have occasional nights of
sleeplessness rather than those who have chronic insomnia and are habituated to
prescription sleep medications.
Liver damage, cirrhosis, hepatitis - Since Good Night Rx has kava which can, if used regularly for prolonged periods, cause harm to liver in rare cases, it may be advisable not to take this natural sleeping pill if a person has liver damage or liver disease.
Questions
Please tell me the most potent ingredients in the Eyesight Rx. I understand how
to do the mixing and I'd prefer to have more than 30 vision tablets by having
the bulk ingredients. I know it's more costly but I do not want to spend too
much.Also, please, can you also give the most potent ingredients of Goodnight
Rx. Honestly, I don't have much money to be able to spend and I could use better
sleep and I would love to experience better eyesight.
The products work because of a combination of herbs and
nutrients, and we cannot say one or two are the most important since all of them
work together
