1.Known sensitivity to any components of the IP
2.Insomnia disorder (ICD-11), as per investigator’s judgement
3.Insomnia severity index score >10
4.Self-reported substantial daily sleepiness (as per investigator's judgement)
5.Less than 5 hours sleep per night on average, self-reported
6.Self-reported regular daytime sleeping (>1 hour daily)
7.Self-reported medical condition associated with sleep complaints, e.g. sleep apnoea, restless legs syndrome, neurological / psychiatric disorder, chronic pain (as per investigator's judgement)
8.Lifestyle and other factors potentially associated with sleep problems, e.g. ex-cessive caffeine intake, (night)shift work, long-distance travelling, significant stressors such as active grieving etc. (as per investigator's judgement)

•Untreated or non-stabilized diabetes mellitus
•Untreated or non-stabilized thyroid gland disorder
•Untreated or non-stabilized hypertension (regular systolic blood
•pressure =140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure =90 mmHg)
•Significant gastrointestinal diseases
•Other known significant or serious condition / disease that renders
•subjects ineligible (e.g. history of malignancy within the past 5 years
•prior to study, any clinically significant cardiovascular, renal, liver
•disease etc.)
10.Use of drugs/supplements other than the IP which could interfere with the re-sults of the study as per investigator's judgement (e.g. stimulants, neurolep-tics, benzodiazepines, antidepressants, hypnotics etc.) within the last 4 weeks prior to screening visit and during the study; antihistamines are allowed at a constant dose within the last 4 weeks prior to screening visit and during the study

Name Time Method 1. Subject diary daily sleep related parameters – comparison vs baseline:<br>• time in bed (time of going to sleep - time of waking up)<br>• time to fall asleep (sleep onset latency)<br>• number of awakenings in the night <br>• total duration of wake time during the night (wake after sleep onset)<br>• total sleep time (time in bed – wake time in the night)<br>• sleep efficiency ((total sleep time/time in bed)x100)<br>2. Subject diary daily sleep related parameters – percentage of subjects with improvement in any of the parameters<br>3. Subject diary weekly sleep related parameters: mAIS – comparison of values for 1st, 2nd and 3rd week of taking IP vs baseline values<br>4. Global evaluation of benefit of the IP<br>5. AEs during the study<br>6. Global evaluation of tolerability of the IP<br>
