How Altonil Tablet works
Melatonin is a hormone produced by the body that synchronizes the body’s biological day-and-night rhythm. The biological rhythm can be disturbed by travelling across time zones. This is known as jetlag. The symptoms and their severity vary between individuals, but are generally worse and last longer the more time zones are crossed. Altonil 3mg Tablet can help restore the normal day-and-night rhythm and reduce the symptoms.
