On: Melatonin

[realitygrill]

Interesting. I'm not sure I've seen extended-release melatonin. IIRC melatonin does not help you stay asleep, so that would be fairly useless.

I recommend starting at the smallest dose you can find designed for sublingual (under-the-tongue dissolving) administration. 0.3mg to 1mg is a good range.

This is the extended release one that made me sleepy the next day:

Hmm. The article specifically says that disappearance of melatonin enables waking.
