What is Chronodorm Double Action used for?
Chronodorm® Double Action is a dietary supplement containing 1.9 mg of melatonin combined with plant extracts.
- Helps reduce the time it takes to fall asleep
- Helps restore quality sleep
- Limits night-time awakenings
Chronodorm has a dual action thanks to its two-layer tablets, which dissolve in two stages:
- The first layer contains melatonin. It dissolves rapidly in less than 10 minutes, providing the body with a rapid response and helping to reduce the time it takes to fall asleep.
- The second layer contains plant extracts which act continuously in the body (2 to 4 hours) to help maintain quality sleep.
Here's a closer look at the plant extracts in Chronodorm dietary supplement:
- Valerian has an anxiolytic action. This is due to its direct influence on GABA metabolism (GABA is a neurotransmitter involved in the so-called "inhibitory" regulation of brain activity), and stimulates its release in the cerebral cortex, thus calming the nervous system. This plant also has hypnotic and sedative properties. Several studies have shown that valerian improves sleep quality and reduces the time it takes to fall asleep.
- Passionflower has sedative, anxyolytic, anticonvulsant and analgesic properties. It increases sleep duration, guaranteeing restful sleep. Passionflower is particularly effective against anxiety states in adults and children with somatization such as high blood pressure, chest tightness, stomach cramps, spasmodic colitis, etc.
- California yellow poppy (Eschscholzia) helps combat sleep disorders such as difficulty falling asleep, night-time awakenings and unrefreshing sleep.

Our advice and expert opinions
Melatonin is a hormone produced by the pineal gland in the middle of the brain. The body uses it to regulate the rhythm of sleep. Melatonin production peaks in adolescence and declines with age. It regulates the biological clock.
Melatonin secretion is inhibited during the day and stimulated at night, peaking around 2 or 3 a.m., hence its other names: sleep hormone or hormone of darkness. Through melatonin, the epiphysis informs the brain of the relative lengths of the hours of darkness and light over a 24-hour period (daily cycle), but also throughout the year (seasonal cycle).
