A member asked:
Is melatonin safe for epileptics?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Melatonin is perhaps one of the safest approaches to assist sleep. Unlikely to cause exacerbation of seizures if taken in recommended amounts. But not always clear whether additives in different brands could be harmful. Discuss your plans with your neurologist, who can support ongoing safety and efficacy.
