If I had this itinerary, I would simply take a couple of melatonin when I boarded the first flight, have a meal and then fall asleep. My goal would be to get about 5-7 hours sleep on the first flight. Then, I'd try not to sleep again until I got to SVO, at which point I'd take another couple of melatonin upon arrival at my hotel. I'd also take one tablet per night for the next 2 nights I was in SVO - to help me sleep through the night.
