Question 1

how many sleeping aid pills (kalms sleep or kalms night) would garauntee making me fall asleep?

Accepted Answer

No guarantee: I'm afraid ther is no guarantee.  Some of the over the counter things taken can actually make some people's sleep issues worse (like in the case of RLS and antihistamines (benadryl).  Just be careful on using something to help with sleep even if "natural."  find out what is causing you to have trouble falling asleep if you can.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Mixed meds: Amoxicillin, taken exactly as directed for at least five days, will reduce some bacterial infections.  Kalms is an herbal anti-anxiety Med.  Should not interfere with each other.  But if you have an infection important that you get professional treatment.  Do it yourself treatment can be dangerous.

Question 6

can kalms cause constipation?

Accepted Answer

Kalms: Kalms is valerian root extract used to help reduce the effects of stress.  It should not cause constipation, but also won't really do anything to help with constipation in my experience.      Magnesium added to this may be quite helpful.

Question 7

Checked the Kalms: Website and did not find the contents of kalms. Suspect it is a proprietary blend of 'plant extracts'. Without knowing what the herbs are in their formulation - can't really provide you with any helpful feedback.
