FAQs

It is recommended that you take ZzzQuil when you have adequate time to get a full night’s sleep.

Q: Will ZzzQuil make me feel groggy in the morning?

Q: How is ZzzQuil different from ‘PM’ products?
A: Some ‘PM’ products contain a pain reliever such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen in addition to a sleep-aid ingredient. ZzzQuil is different from these products because it does not contain any pain reliever. ZzzQuil: Not for pain. Not for colds. Just for sleep.
