What is Melatonin used for?
Melatonin acts on the melatonin receptors that regulate the circadian rhythm and is used for several sleep‑related conditions.
Insomnia: assists adults in reducing sleep onset latency and improving sleep continuity. Jet lag: helps travelers adjust their internal clock after rapid east‑west or west‑east travel. Shift work disorder: supports sleep timing for individuals working non‑standard hours. Delayed sleep phase disorder: advances sleep onset in people with a delayed circadian phase.
What are the side effects of Melatonin?
Melatonin is generally well tolerated, but adverse reactions can occur.
Common Side Effects: - Headache - Dizziness - Daytime sleepiness - Nausea - Mild gastrointestinal upset - Vivid dreams
Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Allergic reactions such as rash or angioedema - Severe hypersensitivity requiring medical attention - Mood alterations including depression or agitation - Rare seizures - Hormonal disturbances, e.g., menstrual irregularities
What precautions apply to Melatonin?
When considering melatonin therapy, several safety points should be observed. - Pregnancy: safety not established; use only if clearly needed and prescribed. - Breastfeeding: insufficient data; weigh potential benefits against risks. - Concomitant CNS depressants: may increase sedation; monitor patient response. - Elderly patients: start with the lowest effective dose and assess tolerance. - Autoimmune conditions: monitor for possible disease activity changes. - Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and light.
What does Melatonin interact with?
Melatonin may interact with other medicines; awareness of the interaction level helps guide monitoring.
Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): may increase bleeding risk. - Immunosuppressants (e.g., cyclosporine): potential reduction in immunosuppressive effect. - Strong CYP1A2 inhibitors (e.g., fluvoxamine): can raise melatonin plasma concentrations.
Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Sedatives (benzodiazepines, Z‑drugs): additive drowsiness. - Antidepressants (SSRIs, SNRIs): possible alteration of sleep architecture. - Oral contraceptives: may increase melatonin levels, requiring observation.
