About this active substance
Melatonin is a natural hormone produced by the pineal gland that regulates sleep-wake cycles. It is used as a dietary supplement to treat sleep disorders such as insomnia and to help adjust the circadian rhythm in cases of jet lag.
Melatonin is available in tablet, capsule, or liquid form and is usually taken 30-60 minutes before bedtime. The dosage varies depending on age, condition, and individual response.
Although melatonin is considered safe for short-term use, it may cause side effects such as drowsiness, dizziness, headaches, or irritability. It is important to avoid driving or operating heavy machinery after taking melatonin.
People taking medications for blood pressure, diabetes, or other chronic conditions should consult a doctor before using melatonin. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also discuss its use with a specialist.
