What the Evidence Says

AI-generated · Qwen 3.6 · grounded in 1 source · methodology

Melatonin is a hormone used to regulate sleep-wake cycles, with moderate evidence supporting its use for short-term sleep onset. However, the high 20 mg dosage exceeds typical recommended amounts, which may increase the risk of side effects. This contributes to a lower safety score and potential concerns regarding long-term use.
