Melatonin gummies are a popular over-the-counter sleep aid that can help improve sleep quality, particularly for those with certain sleep disorders like delayed sleep-wake phase syndrome and jet lag[3][5]. They work by supplementing the body's natural melatonin, which regulates the sleep-wake cycle, and can help individuals fall asleep faster[3][4]. However, melatonin supplements, including gummies, are not FDA-regulated, leading to variability in dosage and quality, which poses risks of overdose or side effects such as nausea and dizziness[3][2].
It's important to consult a healthcare provider before using melatonin gummies to ensure appropriate dosage and check for potential interactions with other medications[5][2]. Additionally, the gummies should not be the first approach for sleep troubles; good sleep hygiene practices should also be followed[1][2][5].
