A member asked:
Is it safe to take melatonin with the merena iud?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Safe together: Those medicines are safe together and should not interfere with each other. Most people use between 1 to 5 milligrams of melatonin at a time. I normally recommend people start with 1 milligram. Be careful you are not too sleepy the next morning after using melatonin. A medicine you use, Ritalin, (methylphenidate) is known to keep people awake fyi.
