Phytoral Melatonin 3 mg

Our assessment

The evidence shows that Phytoral Melatonin 3 mg is a dietary supplement intended to support sleep, but the data provided does not contain specific information on melatonin itself. Our assessment must be based strictly on the data available, which includes ingredient data for Calcium, not melatonin. For melatonin specifically, data on its mechanism, efficacy, and safety is not available in the provided materials.

How it works

Based on the data provided for the ingredient Calcium, it functions through bone mineralization and neuromuscular relaxation [NIH ODS]. For the melatonin in this product, specific mechanism data is not available. You should know that without ingredient-specific data, we cannot explain how the melatonin in this product works.

Safety profile

The FDA has received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all dietary supplements, but no specific report count is provided for this product or for melatonin [FDA data]. For the ingredient Calcium, side effects include constipation, nausea, and weight loss [NIH ODS]. For melatonin side effects, data is not available. You should be aware that high calcium intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer, and high levels in the blood can cause abnormal heart rhythms [NIH ODS].

Our recommendation

Because the provided data does not include specific information on melatonin, we cannot make a confident recommendation for Phytoral Melatonin 3 mg. The data available covers Calcium, which is not the primary active ingredient of this product. We recommend consulting your healthcare provider before starting this supplement, as data on its safety, efficacy, and interactions is not available from the provided sources.
