Can I take melatonin with my medication?

It is generally safe to take melatonin with medications, but it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before doing so. Melatonin is known to be effective for shift work and jet lag, but it is not typically recommended as a first-line treatment for insomnia. It is important to focus on non-pharmacological methods to improve sleep quality, such as limiting screen time before bed, maintaining a consistent sleep schedule, and creating a restful sleep environment. If these strategies do not work, it is advisable to seek medical advice.
