Precautions

Before taking this medicine, it is important to understand the recommended dosage, possible interactions, and precautions related to its use. Following healthcare professional guidance can help ensure that Meloset Tablet is used appropriately.

Before You Start

• Consult your healthcare professional. Discuss your sleep difficulties to determine whether melatonin is suitable for your needs. Ongoing sleep problems may have underlying causes that require assessment.

• Check the ingredients carefully. Review the product packaging to confirm the melatonin content and strength. Inform your healthcare professional if you have previously experienced a reaction to melatonin or any other ingredient.

• Discuss your medical history. Tell your healthcare professional about existing health conditions, particularly liver or kidney problems, epilepsy, or conditions that affect your immune system.

• Mention other medicines and supplements. Inform your healthcare professional about all medicines and supplements you take, especially other sleep aids, sedatives, blood thinners, or medicines that may affect melatonin.

• Discuss pregnancy or breastfeeding. Seek medical advice before using Meloset Tablet if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.

• Confirm suitability for your age. Ask a healthcare professional before giving melatonin to a child or teenager, as its suitability and dose depend on individual circumstances.

While Using It

• Follow the recommended dosage. Take Meloset Tablet according to the product instructions or your healthcare professional's advice. Do not take more than the recommended amount.

• Pay attention to timing. Melatonin works in relation to the body's internal clock, so the timing of a dose can affect its intended use. Follow the recommended schedule.

• Be cautious with driving and machinery. Meloset Tablet may cause drowsiness, dizziness, or reduced alertness. Avoid driving or operating machinery if you feel sleepy or less alert after taking it.

• Avoid combining sleep aids without advice. Taking melatonin with alcohol or other medicines that cause drowsiness may increase sleepiness or affect alertness. Ask your healthcare professional before combining them.

• Monitor how you feel. Watch for headache, dizziness, nausea, or daytime drowsiness. Seek medical advice if these effects persist, become troublesome, or affect your daily activities.

• Maintain a regular sleep routine. Going to bed at consistent times, limiting bright light exposure before bedtime, and keeping your bedroom comfortable may help support a healthy sleep schedule.

• Follow the recommended treatment duration. Use Meloset Tablet for the period advised by your healthcare professional. Seek further advice if your sleep difficulties continue rather than increasing the dose yourself.

• Persistent side effects: Consult your healthcare professional if headaches, dizziness, nausea, or daytime drowsiness continue or interfere with daily activities.

• Signs of an allergic reaction: Facial or throat swelling, widespread hives, or difficulty breathing require immediate medical attention.
