What Is in Relaxium Sleep? Ingredients and Amounts From the Label

Anirva sells Sleep Harmony, a dietary supplement. Anirva is not affiliated with Relaxium. This article describes Relaxium Sleep using label text read on September 21, 2026. Labels can change, so the bottle in your hands is the final word. Relaxium and Valerest are trademarks of their owner.

If you are wondering what is in Relaxium Sleep, the answer is on its Supplement Facts panel. This article lists each ingredient and its amount as printed on the label. It explains what the terms on the panel mean and notes where versions of the label differ. It sticks to what the label says, and it does not rate the product.

Key Takeaways

At a glance
  • The 60-capsule label lists eight ingredients per 2-capsule serving: magnesium, L-tryptophan, Valerest, ashwagandha, GABA, chamomile, passionflower and 5 mg of melatonin.
  • Valerest is a proprietary blend. The label gives its total weight, 228.9 mg, and names its two components, valerian root extract and hops extract. It does not give the amount of each.
  • Serving size differs by bottle. The 60-capsule label shows 2 capsules. A retailer listing for a 120-capsule bottle shows 1 capsule and 100 mg of L-tryptophan.
  • Other ingredients are hypromellose (the vegetarian capsule), dicalcium phosphate, silica and magnesium stearate.
  • The label's directions are 2 capsules 30 to 60 minutes before bed. It also says up to 4 capsules a night.

What Is on the Relaxium Sleep Label?

The most complete label text I found is on a Swanson Vitamins listing for the 60-capsule bottle (SKU REL001), which reproduces the Supplement Facts panel. The maker's ingredient page lists the same amounts for each ingredient. I read both on September 21, 2026.

The panel shows a serving size of 2 capsules and 30 servings per container. Amounts are per serving.

Ingredient, as Printed Amount per Serving % Daily Value
Magnesium (as magnesium oxide, magnesium citrate and magnesium bisglycinate) 100 mg 24%
L-Tryptophan 500 mg Not established
Valerest® proprietary blend: valerian (root) extract 5:1 and hops (aerial part) extract 10:1 228.9 mg Not established
Ashwagandha (root and leaf) extract, standardized to 8% withanolide glycoside conjugates 125 mg Not established
GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) 100 mg Not established
Chamomile flower powder 75 mg Not established
Passionflower flower extract 10:1 75 mg Not established
Melatonin 5 mg Not established

The maker's page words two items slightly differently. It says "magnesium citrate, glycinate, oxide" and "chamomile extract." The retailer's panel says "magnesium oxide, magnesium citrate and magnesium bisglycinate" and "chamomile flower powder." The amounts match.

What the Terms on the Label Mean

Magnesium. The panel lists 100 mg with 24% of the Daily Value. NIH explains that the panel declares the amount of elemental magnesium, so this is 100 mg of magnesium itself. The label names three forms and does not list how much comes from each.

L-tryptophan. This is an amino acid. The maker's page notes that the body makes serotonin and melatonin from it. The label lists 500 mg per serving.

Valerest. A blend groups several ingredients under one name. FDA's guide says the label must show the blend's total weight and list the components in order of weight. It does not have to show each component's amount. Here, valerian extract is listed first and hops extract second. Ratios such as 5:1 and 10:1 describe how concentrated an extract is. As one example, a label in NIH's label database describes 20 mg of a 5:1 valerian extract as equivalent to 100 mg of root.

Ashwagandha. The label lists 125 mg of an extract standardized to 8% withanolide glycoside conjugates. NIH says that standardization can help keep batches consistent, and that the word alone does not show product quality.

Melatonin and the rest. Melatonin, GABA, chamomile and passionflower have no Daily Value, so the panel shows "not established" for them, as it does for L-tryptophan, Valerest and ashwagandha.

Bottle Versions and Serving Size

Not every Relaxium Sleep bottle carries the same panel. A Costco listing for a 120-capsule bottle shows a serving size of 1 capsule and 120 servings. In the excerpt I could read, it lists 100 mg of magnesium, 228.9 mg of Valerest, 125 mg of ashwagandha, 100 mg of GABA and 75 mg of passionflower per serving. It lists L-tryptophan at 100 mg, compared with 500 mg on the 60-capsule panel. The excerpt ends after the passionflower line.

Check the serving size and the L-tryptophan line on the bottle you have. Relaxium also sells other products, including gummies and quick-melt forms, with their own formulas. This article covers the Relaxium Sleep capsules.

Other Ingredients, Directions and Warnings

On the 60-capsule label, the "Other ingredients" list reads hypromellose (a vegetarian capsule), dicalcium phosphate, silica and magnesium stearate. The label states that the product contains no GMO, gluten, nuts, yeast, sugar, dairy, eggs, fish, shellfish, soy, corn, wheat, barley or artificial ingredients.

The suggested use is 2 capsules 30 to 60 minutes before bed, and the label adds that up to 4 capsules a night may be taken. The warning tells readers to consult a healthcare professional before use if they are pregnant, nursing or taking any medication. It also advises against use with alcohol, while driving and while operating machinery. The panel carries the standard FDA statement that claims have not been evaluated by the FDA.

Comparing Labels With Research

Amounts used in studies vary by ingredient and by form, so a label amount on its own does not say how a product compares with the research. Our articles on melatonin, magnesium and herbs list the amounts studies used. To compare any two sleep supplement labels, start with the serving size, then read the amount beside each ingredient, the blend lines, and the Other ingredients list.

Good to Know

Before you read any labelMelatonin's most common effect is daytime drowsiness, and Mayo Clinic suggests waiting about five hours after a dose before driving or using machinery. The Relaxium label's own warning advises checking with a healthcare professional first if you are pregnant, nursing or taking any medication. The melatonin, herbs and amino acids on the panel each carry their own considerations, so that is a good step with any supplement that lists several active ingredients.

The Short Version

Relaxium Sleep's 60-capsule label lists eight ingredients per 2-capsule serving, including 5 mg of melatonin and a Valerest blend of valerian and hops extracts totaling 228.9 mg. Bottle versions can differ in serving size and in the L-tryptophan amount, so the panel on your bottle is the one to read.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is in Relaxium Sleep?
On the 60-capsule label read on September 21, 2026, each 2-capsule serving lists magnesium, L-tryptophan, a Valerest blend of valerian and hops extracts, ashwagandha extract, GABA, chamomile, passionflower and melatonin. The label also lists hypromellose, dicalcium phosphate, silica and magnesium stearate as other ingredients.
How much melatonin is in Relaxium Sleep?
The 60-capsule label lists 5 mg of melatonin per serving, and a serving is 2 capsules. The maker's ingredient page also lists 5 mg. The excerpt I could read of a 120-capsule listing ends before its melatonin line. Melatonin has no Daily Value, so the panel shows no percentage for it.
What is Valerest?
Valerest is a trademarked proprietary blend of valerian root extract (5:1) and hops extract (10:1), listed at 228.9 mg in total. The label names both components but does not give the amount of each. FDA rules require the components to be listed in order of weight.
How much magnesium is in Relaxium Sleep?
The label lists 100 mg of magnesium per serving, which is 24% of the Daily Value. NIH notes that panels declare elemental magnesium, so 100 mg refers to magnesium itself. The label names three forms: magnesium oxide, magnesium citrate and magnesium bisglycinate. It does not list how much comes from each form.
How many capsules are in a serving of Relaxium Sleep?
The 60-capsule label lists 2 capsules per serving and 30 servings. A retailer listing for a 120-capsule bottle shows 1 capsule per serving and 120 servings, with 100 mg of L-tryptophan. Check the serving size on the bottle you have before you compare amounts with another product.
Are there other ingredients besides the active ones?
Yes. The Supplement Facts panel lists the active ingredients, and the other ingredients appear in a separate list. On the 60-capsule label that list reads hypromellose (a vegetarian capsule), dicalcium phosphate, silica and magnesium stearate. The label also states that the product contains no GMO, gluten, sugar, dairy, soy or artificial ingredients.
