Melatonin

D.S.

I did not know this either! I am going to have to do some reading up on this, as is is often one of the things that I recommend for insomnia.;/

Thanks for the info!

Well, I do always advise members to check ANY suppliment...even the all natural ones with their doctor first before starting them...especially if they are on any Rx's.

Even alochol and certain foods can interact with medicines.

From what I have read so far, it is the larger doses of Melatonin which seem to be the problematic factor for increasing anxiety...but I can certainly see how this would cause concern for someone who is sesitive to medications/suppliments, or who is taking an SSRI.

Again, thanks for the heads up...I plan on reading more on this.

Thanks for sharing! My therapist recommended taking it and I do a few times a week. I also use magnesium (Nature Calm) to relax before bed. I'm not aware of any anxious side effects.
