I always have trouble sleeping on the plan, so sometimes I'm awake for like 48 hours if I'm flying to Asia! Now, if I’m taking a long flight, I suck on one or two melatonin drops about 30 minutes before when it would be my bedtime at my destination. Or I if I’m on the ground, I eat one just before bedtime. That seems to reset my clock. I tried sub-lingual pills, but it is uncomfortable for me to holding anything under my tongue. I found some Melatonin drops from FBSHealth: I let them dissolve in my mouth. They taste pretty good: like milk candy, actually. I travel a lot so I just keep some on me in my wallet (they are individually wrapped), so I don’t forget to bring them. Also, I don't have to dig them out of my carry on, or I don’t need to ask for water or anything when I’m on the plane, which is a hassle. So far, I've only found them online.
