Somacalm Tablet belongs to the hypnotics and sedative medication class that primarily helps control sleep patterns. It can be used to treat jet lag and other sleep disorders such as Insomnia. Jet lag is a sleep disorder in people who travel across multiple time zones. Insomnia is a disorder of sleep that causes difficulty in falling asleep or staying asleep. It may be acute (short-term) or chronic (long-term) in nature due to various complications like stress, anxiety, and breathing problems.

L Theanine and Melatonin are the two active components present in Somacalm Tablet . L-Theanine is thought to work by decreasing 'excitatory' brain chemicals that contribute to stress and anxiety while increasing brain chemicals that promote calmness, thereby inducing sleep. Melatonin is a naturally occurring hormone that assists in maintaining a normal sleep cycle (waking up and falling asleep). As a result, the circadian rhythm is controlled, and the tendency to sleep increases.
