ATC sleep aid

[aviatorchris]

I did a search and found prescription sleep aids, but wasnt able to find anything related to melatonin. Is this a approved sleep aid since its "NATURAL" or same rules apply?

Thanks,
Chris

Nothing is approved. Melatonin is not disapproved because it is a natural product. Don't take more the 6 mg a night.

I guess my question is for my PEPC in 2 weeks do I list it on the form or is melatonin impossible to trace in you system?

Nothing is impossible to tract in a toxicology lab. The question to ask is do they test for melatonin and I believe the answer is no.
