A member asked:
For sleeping- is it best to vary between melatonin and valerian?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Varying meds: It is not necessary to vary medications if what you take is successful. Either would be reasonable if taken consistently. If you feel one has lost its effect, changing would be reasonable.
