Are there any bad Side Effects Taking Melatonin?

Question

I have Insomnia and can't sleep most nights. I've been taking regular sleeping pills but after awhile it seems they stopped working and I lie awake all night.

Will Melatonin work better than regular sleeping pills?

Are there any bad side Effects in using Melatonin?

Answer 1

I haven't taken it myself but I heard it does really weird things to your dreams or dream cycle. Some have experienced sleep paralysis or just dream weird stuff. Other than that it shouldn't be bad for your health or anything.
