Sleep Patch-It was tested in Britain with a group of people suffering from poor sleep quality. In that test, users applied the patches over the course of one month and the results indicated the potential to increase the number of hours rest as well as reduce the number of times the user woke during the night. Note that for first time users, use for at least 3 consecutive nights and for 10 consecutive nights every month as part of a long-term maintenance programme. For those who have experienced long term difficulty with getting a good night´s rest, a longer period of consecutive use (14-21 days) may be necessary initially.
