Vicks ZzzQuil Nighttime Sleep-Aid Liquid FAQs
How does ZzzQuil help you fall asleep?
ZzzQuil helps you fall asleep by introducing the ingredient Diphenhydramine HCL into your system. Diphenhydramine HCL is an antihistamine that has been shown to make you feel sleepy and help you relax with no lasting side effects. Unlike a more powerful prescription sleep aid, ZzzQuil is gentle and won’t force you to fall asleep; it will only help calm, soothe and guide you into sleep.
What are the common side effects of ZzzQuil?
Most side effects of ZzzQuil are mild and will go away on their own. They include headaches, nausea and sleeplessness. While serious symptoms are extremely rare and usually the result of an overdose, if you experience seizures, extreme confusion or hallucinations, discontinue use and get help immediately. Click HERE for a complete list of possible side effects.
How is your ZzzQuil line different from PURE Zzzs?
Our ZzzQuil line uses the active ingredient Diphenhydramine HCL. Our PURE Zzzs line uses the active ingredient melatonin, which is a hormone that occurs naturally in your body. While each have been shown to be safe and effective, you should choose the product that works best for you and your body. Click HERE to learn more about our PURE Zzzs line.
Why do I have strange dreams on ZzzQuil?
Both ZzzQuil and PURE Zzzs help your body move from light sleep into the REM sleep cycle, which is your deepest and most restorative sleep, and also where you dream. The longer you stay in the REM sleep cycle, the more you’ll dream, and the more you’ll remember those dreams. However, while your dreams will likely be more vivid, you should not have terrifying dreams on ZzzQuil. If you do experience unwanted, frightening dreams, try practicing calming techniques before bed. If you still experience unpleasant dreams, discontinue ZzzQuil use and talk to your health care provider about a sleep aid that will work for you.
How much ZzzQuil should I be taking?
For our liquid products, adults and children over 12 years of age should take a single dose of 30 mL (measured in our provided cup) before bed. You should not have more than one dose in 24 hours. For our liquicaps, adults and children over 12 years of age should take two capules at bedtime and take only one dose in 24 hours. Children under 12 should not use any ZzzQuil product, but our PURE Zzzs Kidz product may be right for them.
What is PURE Zzzs? How is it different from ZzzQuil?
The sleep experts at Vicks ZzzQuil created PURE Zzzs to give you a drug free alternative to our bestselling ZzzQuil sleep aid. Our original ZzzQuil formula has the active ingredient Diphenhydramine HCL, an antihistamine, while our PURE Zzzs formula has the hormone melatonin. While both lines help you fall asleep, we’ve provided this drug free alternative to our proven sleep aids line so that you can choose the product that works best for you.
