A member asked:
Can melatonin 3 or 5 mg be taken by 13 year old boy for sleeping who is on neucon 18mg. which is safer ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talk to prescriber: Please talk the prescriber about the problem before giving the child an over the counter sleeping medication . He/she undoubtedly has lots of experience With neucon and may have other things to focus on first including sleep hygiene, changing time of administration of medication etc. this is a common problem on these types of meds. I am sure he/she has expertise in this.
