What is in each formula?
Pure Patch Sleep Patch: magnesium glycinate 15 mg, L-theanine 3 mg, apigenin 2 mg, GABA 2 mg, CoQ10 1 mg and Cosmoperine® black pepper extract 0.5 mg per patch. We developed this melatonin-free formula with doctors and pharmacists.
Zleep Sleep Patches: its sites name melatonin, ashwagandha, L-theanine, chamomile extract and valerian root, without amounts per patch.
Both formulas include L-theanine. Zleep adds melatonin and herbal ingredients; Pure Patch uses magnesium glycinate, apigenin and GABA and lists the amount of each. The Pure Patch Sleep Patch formula guide explains each of our ingredients. Listed ingredients describe what is in each patch; they are not a comparison of absorbed doses or proven sleep results.
Melatonin or melatonin-free?
This is the main difference between the two patches. Zleep includes melatonin. Pure Patch Sleep contains none and uses magnesium glycinate, L-theanine, apigenin and GABA instead.
Pure Patch may fit someone who wants to keep melatonin out of their bedtime routine. Zleep may fit someone who specifically wants a melatonin patch. Choosing melatonin-free is a preference, not proof that one patch is safer or works better, and we have no head-to-head study of the two finished patches. Our melatonin-free patch selection guide explains what to check before choosing.
How Pure Patch fits your night
Apply one Pure Patch Sleep Patch about 30 minutes before bed to clean, dry, hair-free skin on the inner forearm, outer arm, shoulder, leg or hip. Avoid the abdomen and inner bicep, where rubbing can affect the fit. Wear it for up to 12 hours, then remove it and rotate placement.
A 30-patch supply gives you 30 nights; a 90-patch supply gives you 90. Our Sleep Patch application guide covers preparation, removal and help with adhesion.
Buying and refunds
Pure Patch Sleep comes in 30- or 90-patch supplies, and you can subscribe or buy once. Zleep sells 30-patch packs, with subscription and multi-pack offers that differ between its stores.
Your first Pure Patch Sleep order bought from purepatch.com is covered by our 30-Night Sleep Guarantee when you use it as directed; see the full terms. Zleep's terms offer a refund on the unused portion returned within 30 days of the order date with a return authorization, and say orders from its auto-ship program are not refundable.
