My gynecologist recommended this product to treat menopausal symptoms, as I did not want to use hormones. Taken as directed, it is very effective in eliminating menopause symptoms for me, i.e., hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, headaches & more! One does need to go off it for about 2 weeks every six months as black cohosh builds up in the system and can cause flu-like symptoms if you don't give your body "a rest." It is made in Germany, where herbs are regulated like drugs, so you can be assured each dosage is the exact 20 mg needed (which is why it is the only brand recommended by by gynecologist). I have used it for five years with great results (three years prior to menopause and two years since).

Okay...all I can say is that I wasn't sleeping..I was hot flashing to beat the band, and probably a bit nastier than I'd like to admit. After about 3 weeks of taking remifin in the morning and night, I started evening out. I was sleeping more soundly and the hot flashes have all but diminished. The only thing that was different was the remifemin. So I'm sold on this !!!! Cathie
