Everything You Need to Know About The Sleep Well Cream

What is The Sleep Well Cream?

Good sleep is not optional. It supports the recovery, energy, cognitive function, cardiovascular health, and immune function your body relies on every day. Over time, quality rest can also support healthier aging, which is why longevity starts with better sleep.

The Sleep Well Cream is a non-habit-forming prescription topical cream formulated to ease restlessness, calm the nervous system, support relaxation, and regulate the sleep-wake cycle for more restful, restorative sleep.

What Makes The Sleep Well Cream Different?

Unlike one-size-fits-all sleep supplements, The Sleep Well Cream is doctor-guided. A Musely board-certified physician reviews your medical history and prescribes a formula suited to your needs if appropriate.

Two formulas are available: Restore (without melatonin) and Restore+ (with melatonin). This gives your doctor the flexibility to recommend an option based on your medical history and individual needs.

• Hydroxyzine: Calms the nervous system and supports a more relaxed bedtime routine.

• Melatonin: Regulates the body's natural sleep-wake cycle and improves nighttime rhythm. Included in Restore+ only.

• Magnesium Glycinate: Supports relaxation and nerve function.

• Lavender, Chamomile & Lemon Balm: Provides a soothing sensory experience.

How to Use

Cleanse

1. Thoroughly wash the treatment area with a gentle, fragrance-free body wash or soap and gently pat dry. Allow skin to dry for 2-4 minutes. 

Apply The Sleep Well Cream

2. Apply 1-2 pumps to the forearm as needed and gently massage 30 minutes before bedtime, or as directed by your doctor. Use eNurse Check-Ins on the Musely App to guide you daily.
