Our assessment
The evidence shows that while Calcium is essential for your health, this product is a melatonin supplement, and the data provided does not include specific adverse event reports for melatonin.

The FDA has received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplement ingredients, but specific data for this product is not available [FDA data].
How it works
Based on the data provided, calcium supports bone mineralization by helping deposit minerals into your bone structure, and it also aids neuromuscular relaxation by supporting muscle and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. However, this information applies to calcium, not to the melatonin in this product. Data on how melatonin works is not available in the provided data.
Safety profile
For calcium, the data shows that high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High levels of calcium in the blood and urine can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, low phosphate levels, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent need to urinate, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Specific safety data for the melatonin in this product is not available.
