just wondered if anyone has tried melatonin (dr prescribed re migraine) and had any unpleasant side effects? So far I’m struggling to get past 4 day run! and wonder if there is any interaction (NDT / T3 combo), if it takes time to build up etc? Thanks

I have taken melatonin to help me sleep in the past. I find that if I take it regularly I have crazy scary dreams so I just take it sometimes

My daughter took melatonin prescribed by a Neurologist but he only wanted her to take it for 3 days and cycle it with a couple of other drugs. None of which really helped the migraines.

I was prescribed Melatonin for my sleep issues. It did nothing to help me sleep but it gave me horrendous headaches.
