james here....
A better question is "Is any dose of melatonin safe" Since it is a "supplement" no one has had to prove safety and other issues. We just do not know.
While endless discourse happens on Effexor no one seems to care that there are no long term studies and safety and effect of X dose of melatonin. No studies to define how much is enough and what the "big picture" is in terms of effect on the body. Good forbid we not have studies on meds but this all seems to not matter if something says "natural". the fact that it is natural means nothing in terms of safety; hydrocloric acid is "natural" but no one is in a hurry to use it as a health aid.
