FDA recall appears in this brand's history
An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.
Evidence and sources
Brand-level context only, not a finding about this product. Natrol, LLC recalled a different or not-exactly-bound product on 2021-04-08: “One lot of ALA 300 mg Cap-50 were labeled at Melatonin 3 mg Tab-60.” (status: Terminated). The recalled product was: “Natrol Melatonin 3 mg, T…

Registered owner records: NATROL, INC. · Natrol, Inc. · Natrol LLC
The public ownership record is ambiguous. We show the exact candidates instead of choosing one by name similarity.
Evidence and sources
USPTO returned multiple live supplement-class records for the exact brand wordmark: NATROL, INC., Natrol, Inc., Natrol LLC. These records answer who owns registrations for the brand; the separate product-to-owner or manufacturer link remains open.

Every ingredient shows its amount · 1 ingredients listed.
Every ingredient shows its real amount — nothing is hidden in a proprietary blend.
Evidence and sources
The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.

The barcode identity checks out · 047469081676.
The barcode matches, so we are checking the right product rather than a look-alike.
Evidence and sources
The brand's store lists this exact barcode as “Time Release Melatonin Gummies, 3mg” (variant: 65 ct) — identity confirmed across retailer listings.
Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked findingChecks outCan you trust the review pattern?
Reviews grew steadily — about 6 between February 17, 2026 to July 17, 2026, with no sudden spike.
Gradual growth is more ordinary. A sudden burst deserves a closer look.
Evidence and sources
Written reviews grew from 56 to 60 across 2026-03-03 – 2026-07-17 with no single manufactured spike (largest 30-day gain ~1).

Background reading
What the research says about these amounts
Not a score. Studies disagree with each other and change over time, so this sits beside the evidence rather than counting toward it — it is here so you can read the sources yourself.
The panel lists 3 mg of melatonin per serving. Studies we found used 0.5 mg–5 mg a day, so this sits inside that range.
0studied 0.5 mg–5 mg
Study ranges differ between trials and change as research changes. This is background reading, not a pass, a failure, or a recommendation.
