Melatan


Melatonin


Tablets 3 mg och 5 mg






Indications: Melatan contains the active substance melatonin and is intended for short-term treatment of jet lag in adults over 18 years. The drug is recommended for adults over the age of 18 who fly over at least 5 time zones, especially to the east, and especially if they have experienced jet lag symptoms during previous trips. If needed, it can also be used by travelers passing 2–4 time zones.
Warnings: The timing of the intake of melatonin is important. Melatan should be used as directions describes. Melatonin can cause drowsiness. The drug should therefore be used with caution if the effects of drowsiness are likely to pose safety risks.
There are no clinical data on the use of melatonin in people with autoimmune disorders. Therefore, Melatan is not recommended for patients with autoimmune disorders.
Hepatic and renal impairment:
There is only limited experience/data regarding the safety and efficacy of melatonin use in patients with hepatic or renal impairment. Melatan is not recommended for patients with hepatic impairment or severe renal impairment.
Read the package leaflet carefully before use. Always take this medicine as your doctor prescribes or the pharmacist has told you. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure.
