We provide tailored support based on your travel schedule, flight duration and destination to help you manage fatigue, sleep disruption and daytime tiredness effectively.

Melatonin for Jet Lag in East London

Jet lag occurs when your body clock becomes misaligned with a new time zone. One of the most effective treatments for jet lag is melatonin, a hormone that helps regulate your sleep cycle naturally.

At our Plaistow pharmacy, we offer melatonin jet lag support in East London through professional consultations and personalised travel health advice. Our pharmacists can advise you on the correct timing and dosage to maximise effectiveness and reduce disruption to your sleep pattern.

Melatonin can help:

Improve sleep quality after long-haul travel
Reduce the time needed to adjust to new time zones
Minimise daytime fatigue and brain fog
Support better recovery for business travellers and holidaymakers
Help regulate disrupted sleep cycles after flights

Our pharmacy team will explain exactly when to take melatonin depending on whether you are travelling east or west, as timing plays a crucial role in successful jet lag management.

Circadin Prescription Service in E13

For travellers experiencing more severe jet lag symptoms, we also provide private Circadin prescription services in E13 following a pharmacist consultation.

Circadin is a prolonged-release form of melatonin commonly used for circadian rhythm disturbances and sleep regulation. Unlike standard melatonin supplements, Circadin releases melatonin gradually throughout the night, which may provide longer-lasting support for sleep maintenance during travel recovery.

Our pharmacists can assess whether Circadin is suitable for your needs based on:

Your travel itinerary
Number of time zones crossed
Existing medical conditions
Current medications
Sleep difficulties related to travel

We provide a discreet and professional private consultation service at our Barking Road pharmacy with no need for a GP appointment.
